sky + to pc Is there a way i can connect my sky box to my pc so that i can transfer stuff from the sky + hard drive to my pc hard drive?
how much would it cost for a decent video capture card and the necessary cables to do this in realtime???
Or you could just leave it on your box. Whats that? Cable doesnt come with hard drives yet? Thought not. Eat an eDick Juski
Hmm well, I’ve never lost any recordings yet. The weather thing I agree is a bit naff, but I’ve had it 3 months and had one occasion where the signal was lost for a few mins, and that was in extremely heavy rain and thunder storm. Occasionally get “no satellite signal is being received” – seemingly randomly, but nowt major and rarely happens to me. HOWEVER – You have been misinformed about not being able to watch recordings when signal is lost. I have done this myself (incidentally during the afore mentioned storm, I was watching half an hour behind the real time program, it mentioned that recording had been interrupted, but still played even when there was no signal) No I cant log into it over the net. Alas series link takes care of everything I want to watch, so I can’t forget to record it if that’s set up. Typically as soon as I see something I want to watch I add it to my planner. Sharing content to the network isn’t important to me, but it would be good. Playing back media from other sources doesn’t appeal either, I have a PC for that! I do watch a lot of the channels, loads that I don’t, but still. We have multi room, so yes the total bill is £50 a month, but I pay £25 for mine, and my mam pays £25 for hers. £25 a month for Sky+ on the top level package, in my eyes, is excellent value for money. (But nee chance I’d pay the top whack to have it on my own, I agree that’s not too good value.) I have absolutely no complaints about it, really think its very good. Besides, I have no choice in the matter. It’s sky, or shiteview. No cable round where i live.
