Tonight's dilemma.. England, Yellowstone, The apprentice
Tonight there is a choice to make......Obviously I will be watching the England game but this is where the problems start. We also have yellowstone and the apprentice. Will me Humax be able to record these or will there be a clash of transponders.....
Thanks chaps and chapettes Last edited by Hthebloke2 : 01-04-2009 at 08:45. Reason: Punctuation |

Ah, the joys of being completely uninterested in football (or rugby or whatever it is 'England' are doing).

Assuming you have 2 cables yes, THe England Match spans the entire event, Yellowstone finishes before the apprentice starts so there is no time when you need to record more than 2. The only thing in doubt is what you can watch while recording. To answer that I need the transponder data from your local 101, 102, 103. To get this tune to the stations in turn press opt+ and post the transponder frequency and polarisation and frequency. Tip if ever you need to record BBC HD and BBC 1 use 951 or 954 for the BBC 1 recording (this only needs 1 tuner to record)
Thanks for the tip as well. |

This is where my built-in Freesat on my Panasonic Plasma solves this problem!

![]() Quite a bit of bother for something that will happen very rarely. (Although, interestingly it happened last night for only the second time since I got the box in November. However since two of the things I wanted to watch were on BBC1 and BBC2 I could watch in analogue whilst recording on Freesat). |

Why are none of you using your freeview PVR alongside the Humax? I couldn't imagine only having 2 tuners and having to miss something. What did you all do with your freeview PVR's then?

do you think mines a bit overkill Caz? I've got the Humax Hdr, Panny freesat connected to DVD recorder, Sky box connected to freeview HDD/DVD recorder and a twin tuner freeview PVR and if I really need to connect my archos to sky while the HDD/DVD records freeview. ![]()

How on earth do you find time to watch all the stuff you record?

MY wife also likes stuff I don't so this get's shipped to the kichen TV while she looks after me in the manner I have come accustomed too
Now if you can also send it to the laundry and via bluetooth to the vacuum cleaner ... To be honest, though, I've never believed that a woman should be chained to the kitchen. Otherwise, how can she clean the rest of the house? |

One live programme, one livish programme and one recorded programme that is being repeated later in the week or can be watched online anytime: What is the problem?

Thanks chaps and chapettes I noticed it started recording Ch4 at 9pm as I also had been recording Grand designs weekly. Pity we can not set the number of times it records a program like I can on my Pace Twin Freeview box. Sorry I just noticed it is on BBC HD and I do not yet look at that as i have not got HD on my old CRT Last edited by charlo : 01-04-2009 at 21:48. Reason: apology |

I watched the first one, Winter. I then set the rest of series link record. The 2nd one recorded a few minutes and was corrupted, the 3rd one, Autumn recorded fine.
