as it's quiet..
Was it not bernard shaw who said we did not need capital letters?..Be that as it may..
Following Frost's advice.. I seem to be on a less well trodden path in the Humax Woods than either of you two and indeed others on the forum..but..
Like real life and Windows there are a multiplicity of ways to reach ones destination.It has to be appreciated that i am in a current trauma.. in that as an old fuddy duddy I used GUIDE over 1000times as a First button after Switch-on for 2 years!
A point of interest.. not realised perhaps by many.. is that there are NO Chapter thumbs on the USB drives..but thanks to G.. i have now Bookmarked the progs to achieve a similar purpose.
And when the Thumbs do not update on the Main Drive..there are then NO Chapters either on any of those programmes..
Like my hitherto well used Guide i use Thumbs regularly for several reasons ..
As a grand-dad with 4 grand kids we often have to entertain them and the youngest aged 4.. does.. like all kids.. seem to enjoy the security of well seen videos or picture books.
Hence the over 30 OGGY progs we have and have to keep on the main drive..have identical titles..'Oggy and the Cockroaches'..equally 'Bob the Builder' etc.. however they all display a Starter Thumb which thqankfully are all usually different.. A 'HOVER' causes a rotation thru the chapters..The 4 year old particular likes to decide ..after a 'Hover' tasting of several thumbs.. that she has learned to recognise..
which segment she wants to settle down to watch..
Equally Astronomy has been my hobbly for decades hence i have dozens of progs all entitled.. 'Sky@Night'..'Horizon' etc but the various thumbs show me straight away which one i want to consult... And then..
Some of my friends have plain painted walls just like a doctor's surgery....I say nothing of course.. but appreciate our wallpapered rooms
when we return home..Our new Panny shows even bigger thumbs and of course so does the Portal for Utube etc..For that matter..How refreshing the Red..Green.. Blue buttons?
We could all have numbers instead of names but what a dull life that would be..
