    42" Panasonic LCD TV forgetting default settings

    Thanks everyone for all your help and suggestions, and just to let you know that I've finally sorted the problem out, though fixed it due to another unrelated issue. I changed the scart leads around in order to connect a DVD player, and in doing so, changed the scart leads round at the back of...

    42" Panasonic LCD TV forgetting default settings

    Hi everyone and thank you for your suggestions as to the possible causes. And sorry for the delay with an update. Have checked the settings on the TV and it is definately set to 'AV1' on start up, so am at a loss as to why it switches on and defaults to 'Analogue'. I've checked the scart leads...

    42" Panasonic LCD TV forgetting default settings

    Thanks for the replies, Will take a look at the menu settings when I get home later today. Like I say, it's worked perfectly well without any issues for the past two or three years. Must say this has me foxed because the Panasonic TV menu options allow you to store the AV1, Av2, etc. as you...

    German Viva music channel in the 1990's

    Hi Captain Jack and thank you for your reply. I'm actually very annoyed with myself because back in 1995 when I had the motorised satellite dish fitted, the installers told me to record video using Line 1 or Line 2 if I wanted stereo - yet I still managed to record all in mono!!! As for music...

    German Viva music channel in the 1990's

    Analoguesat, I posted it in the German section because the German Viva music station was only transmitted on a satellite for the German audience so presumed that many of the users might be well aware of Viva and Club Rotation unlike many visitors from the UK. The UK Viva music channel has...

    German Viva music channel in the 1990's

    To anyone who loves true dance music the German Viva music channel was one of the best dance music channels transmitted by satellite in the 1990's and I wonder if anyone recorded or knows of anyone else who recorded the German Viva music channel in 1995 onwards onto video or DVD. I'm...

    Picture broken up while watching Sky+

    Just had a look for the manual and found it, it was fitted in December 2007, the manual says that it was manufactured by Pace Micro Technology plc if that's any help. UPDATE: Just read your earlier post and pulled the plug out for a couple of minutes - SUCCESS - Now why didn't I think of doing...

    Picture broken up while watching Sky+

    Was happily watching a program on tv earlier this evening when it disappeared to be replaced with a dark blue screen and black pixels. I first thought it was the bad weather affecting the picture so went to the Sky+ planner which viewed perfectly well, but when I clicked on play to view one of...

    GPS satellite system 'close to breakdown' and could fail by 2010

    The U.S. government has warned that the worldwide network of satellites that make up the Global Positioning System (GPS) could fail by 2010 - affecting millions of people around the globe. Many are already dependent on the satellite navigation network that beams precise directions from A to B...

    Is this

    She certainly looks very 'flexible' to me - next time I see a flexible friend credit card advert my mind will go blank and be replaced with this vision. Have noticed the Post Office are currently running an advert to design your own stamps on TV at the moment and wonder whether I might be...

    NASA TV in Europe

    Apologies for reopening a very old thread but the NASA TV in Europe title is spot-on. Does anyone know whether NASA is showing its digital channel for viewing in Europe or on SKY? I've viewed the Sky channel 268 but it's been moved - any updates much appreciated :)

    ClassicFM TV used to be on Sky channel 359 though has now been removed and replaced by the rather bland sounding 0music TV which does show some classical tracks. I believe that Classic FM intend to relaunch web based player in the very near future, well according to their own article...
