Ok thanks guys would one of you great ntl guys tell me when BN2 region will get Pvr?:)

Re: Is there an NTL PVR?
 

The PVR should have launched in most areas by Jan 07

Re: Is there an NTL PVR?
 

I think the answer to that as been posted in previous pages :)

Regarding the "Will it be better than Sky+" - I think YES

I would hope that the majority of CURRENT TiVo users will agree when I say that Sky+ is pants (Compared to TiVo). For example, why cant you tell it to record all films starring a specific actor? Why does it not build up a profile about you and record things you might like?

NTL do not have to release something too amazing to be better than Sky+ as Sky+ is not that great anyway. Its a basic PVR with a programmes guide tagged on.. nothing more.

If the design team have looked at TiVo when designing the NTL/Telewest PVR.. then it is plausible that it could be considerably BETTER than Sky+ in my opinion.

I wonder what BBC/ITV have up their sleeves for theyre Freesat launch?

Re: Is there an NTL PVR?
 

does anyone know if its possible to upgrade the sky+ box with more memory?
the ntl one due to be launched does have more but i was wondering if sky users can upgrade thiers to match.

also has anyone seen any pics of the ntl pvr as the new sky boxes do look pretty smart

Re: Is there an NTL PVR?
 

;) The box ntl are using is the same box telewest use .I do belive you can put in a bigger hard drive on sky +

Re: Is there an NTL PVR?
 

This is what the Telewest TVdrive looks like and what NTL will be using as well.http://www.telewestinfo.co.uk/TVDriv...SetTopBox1.gif

I like the cut of that beastie's jib, and no mistake :)

Re: Is there an NTL PVR?
 

thanks all, will definatly be getting one once its released:D

Re: Is there an NTL PVR?
 

Correction.

The PVR SHOULD HAVE launched several years ago around the same time as sky+, but may be expected to launch in most areas by Jan 07 :D

Any news on when there'll be an official announcement of launch dates?

Thanks

Re: Is there an NTL PVR?
 

I guess once they have finished trialing and testing the box and are confident that everything is fine with it. Maybe they will launch different areas at different times.

Re: Is there an NTL PVR?
 

Makes sense. Then you can use the profits gained from phase 1 of the roll-out to fund phase 2 etc. Only side effect is that the customers who get it last get extremely p'd off :mis:

Re: Is there an NTL PVR?
 

Par for the course with NTL. Released in 1 area then take 2 years to release the rest just like VOD :LOL:

In my area on by friends samsung cable receiver is you go in to the engineer menu in the list of channels it has some pvr epg data channels (PVR_EPG & 8300 EPG).
