Thanks,chaps!.I like the idea of just swapping the board as opposed to try soldering.My eyes are not too good now:(.Luckily,I've still got the pictures I took in April,wonder what the...
I am trying to resurrect this old box of mine.After many years of sterling service,it has "died".Symptons being lots of white blobs of chewing-gum appearance on many of the components on the main power board.Before you ask,no,I wont bin it-its a museum piece now,and might be worth a fortune in...
I am lucky enough to be able to watch live football from anywhere in the world on my computer.I watch alone in my house,and I live in the UK.Am I doing anything illegal?.I believe it is done via proxy servers.I think the server is based in one of the Scandinavian countries.On a more general...
Final result!!-I promise you:)

Just to add,this...
Thanks for that. How disappointing.I wasnt exactly thinking of going down to the local market flogging copies of "The Dog Whisperer"!.Why do you think Sky would want to do this?.Is there a work-round?. I cant believe that I cant record in my own home for my own use :)
I have a basic Sky digibox and a VHS recorder(twin speed).I cant seem to record this channel.Best way to describe the effects is to say that its if the scart plug is loose-ie,picture and sound alternating on and off,and the motor speed alternating betreen SP and LP-I can actually hear it...
