Without wishing to bang on about the sound, I was flicking channels this evening and stopped at 108. BBCHD were showing Robin Hood (I think the reason for the lack of picture is, certainly in my case, the lack of an HD TV)

Anyway, imagine my surprise when I realised that Robin Hood on BBCHD is broadcast in 5.1 Surround:Yikes:

Life is full of surprises!

Ok got round to calling them on friday!
I said as i only have 10mb broadband, what will it cost to get the tvdrive installed?
They said to have tvdrive i would NEED to take a phone line, even though i said i currently use vonage with my 10mb via my router. for £7.99 a month with free landline calls, saving £11 line rental a month and have no need for it!
They said with the family pack all in all i was looking at £66 PER MONTH!!
I declined.
I called back and said "i was condsidering going to sky, and i am a long time standing ntl customer, cant you give me some sort of deal"?
To which i was told £61 was the lowest they could go, i declined.
Got the flyer in the mail yesterday, and it was just as vauge with pricing as the sales people on the phone.
Perhaps a better deal will arise?

No it's not - I've got the video and audio here. Check your settings on both the TVDrive and your HDTV.

Oh, that's a bit worrying! What settings do you have and where are you based? Sure other Glasgow punters had this issue.

Currently got mine set to HDMI 1080i wide, will try other settings.

I've also got audio only on the BBC HD channel - currently the only HD channel listed in the TV guide - and I've tried every setting on both the TV Drive and my HD TV! At the moment there is a menu available to select On Demand from Filmflex HD, Channel 4 HD, Music HD, The History Channel HD, and BBC HD, however there is 'no content yet available' when any of these options are selected - except as previously posted, the BBC HD Film 'Pride'.

On a more positive note, standard Filmflex VOD became available for the first time via the TV Drive overnight in the Glasgow area :)

Thanks - was beginning to panic a bit - wonder if anyone in Glasgow area can view 108? Also when would it be acceptable to start phoning customer services to complain that 108 is audio only!
