However I might go to the Crapple Dark Side - IF - it could record Freeview programmes (mainly news) so that I could fast forward through the adverts and sections we do not want to watch. AFAIK the only type of unit that can record are DVRs - with hard drives.	Strommer (42)

It seems to me that the Vodafone box will become a Sky subscription payment service, and that I may get a refund since I purchased it less than a year ago . Looks like there's at least two Versions / Options . I know you can actually purchase the Current decoders, but I work on the principle, hire it with your monthly Subscription . That way when they play up, you don't need to worry about warranties or having to buy a new one, you just call tell them its got a fault and get their backsides round to replace it . Had that happen with the Old decoders a couple of times . :)	wainuitech (129)

I am not sure what you mean by Decoders, and what that enables / allows . Thanks for any info - I always value your posts . You are a PF1 :thumbs: legend .	Strommer (42)

The old Decoders were a a much larger Box, similar to Sky decoders Like this one from Sky. 11221 Remember once ours played up, the guy from Chorus came around Tested - its stuffed - brought in another - that wasn't working either, he cursed and swore :mad:, this is meant to be refurbished and working :angry :angry As he stomped out to his van to get another, Saw him drop kick the decoder across the lawn in discus, breaking open, bits went flying :devil. (Was quite a good kick actually) ;) When he came back I said "Saw you trip on the step going out " he laughed :D That one wont be a problem again.	wainuitech (129)
1482738	2021-12-09 22:52:00	Seriously, anyone else had problems with the ergonomics of apple stuff. I think us oldies really are invisible to them. Ken ;) Even I find that remote to be annoying- it can detect brushes and movement like a trackpad but gets it wrong sometimes. Thankfully I just use the remote app built in to the iphone; makes typing a dream. I understand what you mean about being overly upmarket though- especially if you have been using something else for a long time, sometimes that's all you need :)	baabits (15242)

1482741	2021-12-10 02:01:00	We had Vodafone TV for all of one week. The service/channel selection was useless. The help we received from VF was nil. A shitty service.	Zippity (58)
