I read tonight that the reason I cannot get Dave etc on freesat is because sky have their fingers in the pie of freeview, where bbc etc keep hold of freesat. sky then let you see pick tv free and dave etc on freeview to try and entice you to subscribe.
I intend to chop down my tv to the minimum. I will do this by plugging in my areial and getting freeview through my tv and I will buy a freesat box for freesat. I can then record progs off freesat, while switching inputs to watch dave etc on freeview as the need arises. this will chop my tv down from the current £105 per month with tv, bband and phone, I will then have a payout of around £45 SAVING ME £60 per month or £720 per year. THE REASON I AM DOING THIS?? Because when I checked the programmes I watched on sky, 90 out of 100 were available FREE.

okay its been a long time since I was on here but if anyone can answer my questions you guys can here goes.. I have a samsung led tv, connected to it I have a virgin media v+ hd box, samsung blue ray player and x box 360 and wii. My problem is with some hd channels and programmes. mainly it has been bbc hd channel and e4hd. the problem is this.. halfway down the screen a white small triangle appears which when the picture moves fast, shows a dotted line either side of it, if you change channels it disappears, however if you go back to the menu guideand have the small screen at the top right hand of tv as you look at it, the triangle will be in that screen but NOT on the main tv screen !! I am working on a theory that the screens affected could be on the same mux am I right or wrong. I have changed hdmi leads
