Mark A.: As far as I understand it, all channels from the BBC, ITV plc, STV, UTV, Channel 4 and Channel 5 are regarded as "public service" in this regard - they account for almost three quarters of viewing on the Sky platform.

It is worth noting that Sky made profits last year of £1,073m last year, so they wouldn't need to put up their charges to anyone if they didn't have to charge the BBC £10m - it is 0.93% of Sky's profits.

Robert Lee: I'm glad to hear that worked. PCM is "pulse code modulation", which means, in this context, "raw digital data".

Adrian Tobin: Your set should not "zoom" when switching between 1080i and 1080p.

You might need to do a "software upgrade" on your set, which you can get from here http://support.sony-europ…X703 .
