hurry up with the release you mofo's.

who's gonna pay for my surround if YOUR box has wrecked my speakers?

Unplug it, then, you idiot. Any other worthwhile contributions for us to answer while you are here?

Actually he wasn't talking crap at all.
If you don't want to damage your system, then just listen to ntl through the TV's speakers. That's how ;)

And if you're so unhappy with the service, then why do you stick with ntl??

Perhaps his TV doesn't have speakers ?

At the end of the day its ntl's fault. We pay for a service, and it should be delievered. ntl are taking far too long sorting out the audio issue. If they cant release a software update quicker, then they need to come down harder on broadcasters who broadcast audio levels over the legal limit.

Never mind the fact that ntl should've spotted this before the code update went out.

why should i move service when i've been with it since day one and this is the only thing that's really f****d me off?

Digital is all about pin sharp pictures and great sound. That's half a job then.. or maybe some of the fools posting above don't realise this?

oh yeah, what happens when i damage my tv speakers? widescreen's aint cheap you know! not mine anyway..

there was no problem with 'levels' before MR1 so why they have to blame it on that i'll never know.

Just put it back the way it was ffs. wouldn't know where the alarm was let alone used it before. sound on every channel is way way way more important.

you'd be able to get a discount if they'd even acknowledge that it's a problem!!! you ring them up and they act like they've never heard about it before. what a wind up..

Of course I realise this. But I wasn't talking about the pros and cons of digital TV. You were worried about your all precious, state of the art surround sound system becoming damaged, so I simply suggested a way to protect it until ntl release MR2 - don't use it for cable TV.
It's important that you realise I'm not denying, or disputing the fact that they are not providing the level of service we expect, of course they're not, but until MR2, you'll have to make do I'm afraid.

AFAIK, ntl don't broadcast in 5.1 anyway.

I shouldn't think they would damage just due to some popping and crackling. My old TV hasn't. And I'm sure, if you paid as much as you make out for your TV, you spent that money on quality, not something which will bust at the first opportunity. I can understand you wanting to look after it, but I doubt this will do anything. It's just damn annoying for us, that's all.

well there you go, you heard it here first. expensive equipment doesn't break!

afaik i've never said 5.1 in any post regarding ntl ever.

shouldn't we get a refund of some sort for this kind of sub standard service?
