Are there any lists of the films anywhere that I can print off and then use the search, maybe that would be quicker.
To save you scrolling through each film individually just press channel down and that does a whole page at a time.
Admittedly it takes ages still and after I got to mid alphabet I got bored and cancelled out and that was supposedly with about 150 films in the list!

Oh yes. My TiVo has even crashed several times due to this. Sadly, I'll stay away from Sky Movies on Demand until they are categorized into something more manageable that won't choke my box.

Nothin worse than a choked box, I recommend more fibre

It doesn't make sense. Surely a list of the films shouldn't slow it up like that?

It means that I'm going to have to look them up online, choose one, then "search and browse" for it on the box instead.

It's a flawed system otherwise.

Re: Sky Anytime

Who decides what catogory a film goes under? Is Trainspotting a comedy or a tragedy, are woody allen films intelligent or just [Mod Edit]
