haha i would of though so, however knowing VM id doubt it.

Re: V+ INstalled
 

Yes. I can't help but feel that Virgins are being raped by Sky. I hate the company and not only do I not want a dish but I am not allowed to have one, unless it's very
discreet.

But we do seem to be at the end of the food chain. And I spend a bloody fortune with them each month, the
swines

Re: V+ INstalled
 

aye i agree i get more channels for free with Sky FTV then i do from paying for VM XL.

Re: V+ INstalled
 

Why on earth would you have both?

Re: V+ INstalled
 

cuz i dont & cant have a phone line & i like most of the FTA channels that Sky have to offer. once my contract with VM is past the 12 month period im gonna switch to Sky by getting a second hand box contract.

Re: V+ INstalled
 

That's 24 year old's for you! They use text language and jump ship when the going get's tough, tsk.

Thanks for your help, though.

Re: V+ INstalled
 

lol whats age got to do with it ? iv had both VM & Sky (subscription) in the past & 2bh with VM iv had nowt but hassle. while i cant speak for other ppl with Sky i never had any problems & when our Sky receiver packed in an engineer came & replaced it the next day & realigned our dish cuz the kids across the street thru a football at it lol

Re: V+ INstalled
 

Age has something to do with it because I have to decipher your curious words, cable. It's not having a go at you, personally.

What's wrong with using an apostrophe? Capital letters to start a sentence? Commas? The idea of written communication, using all of the above, is to help people understand what you have written.

You're a bit of whizz at computers, clearly. And I admire you for that, but please don't think that typing in madlanguage excuses you from using the odd full stop or comma!

Personal rant over

Re: V+ INstalled
 

lol im far from a computer wizz i just spend alot of time on mine :p:

Re: V+ INstalled
 

Well the time you have spent is to my benefit, so thank you for that.

Why not move on and learn how to punctuate your sentences? I'm not being critical, I'm trying to give you some seriously good advice.

I wish you luck because you are seriously capable and enthusiastic. If I received a cv written in that sort of language, I doubt very much if the person would get to an interview.

Oh ****, I've gone into older-person speak.

Re: V+ INstalled
 

i do use punctuation however i guess we have different views on the use of punctuation & i know your giving advice, which is all good ;)

Re: V+ INstalled
 

Make sure that you request they bring an HDMI cable (although that is no guarrantee they will). If they turn up without they'll send you one in the mail. This is only slightly irritating because the switchover procedure (SCART to HDMI) is not entirely idiot-proof (apparently).

Re: V+ INstalled
 

Are you sure about this? Please see my thread on this subject:

Re: V+ INstalled
 

I intended it to mean on BBC HD channel 108 most programmes in 5.1 Dolby (if you connect the digital sound cable to a suitable amplifer), NOT on SD channels. Sorry not to have been clear.

Re: V+ INstalled
 

Ahh. Thanks. That makes sense now.

Please note, you don't need to use an optical connector to get the DD audio - an HDMI cable to the receiver works just as well (although you may need to use the audio override function on the V+ to ensure that it sends DD via the HDMI connector).
