The problem with an undocumented feature is justifying it to the suits.
If it's undocumented, how will people find out about it? Someone has to leak the info, which sets a precedent suited folk don't like. And if you don't shout about a feature, and so can't use it in marketing, then will it generate enough extra sales to justify the cost of development? Those blasted bean counters get everywhere these days, you know... |

Because Sky have the majority of boxes connected to a phone line....
All record requests come in via the satellite downlink. |

Sky Remote Record operation has absolutely nothing to do with the phone line.
All record requests come in via the satellite downlink. I never mentioned anything about record requests being sent over a phoneline. Merely the need for one regardless. |

Try setting a sky box up for remote record without a phoneline and let me know how far you get.

It's nothing to do with the phone line as I set up remote record long after disconecting the Sky box from my phone line.

From the sky remote record setup page:-
2. Activate Remote Record on your set top box • Press the Interactive button on your Sky+ remote control and press '1' for Sky Active. • Choose Sky Products from the menu, then select Remote Record. • Select Register My Sky Users - this directs you to a page advising that you are about to be connected to a freephone number. Press Select if you are happy to do so. • Using your Sky remote control, enter your mobile phone number and press Select. |

Explain to me then how then information gets from your sky box back to sky with no phone line?
Dan. Just read your post, it's only needed to enable remote record on your account, once that is done you con disconnect it. |

I don't see how anyone could be confused with my earlier post
Try setting a sky box up for remote record without a phoneline and let me know how far you get. I Have got an active phoneline attached and I cannot register for "Remote Record". Just says "Service Temporarily Unavailable" whenever I try. ![]() Graham. |
