I learned expensive piece of info over Xmas.
I bought two sky+boxes from ebay.one with a card and the other without.I bought a new viewing card from sky,for the one without.Got it activated by sky ,only trouble with that I can watch all the programs,but you cannot record or pause.That is what sky told me,unless the box is registered to you you are out of luck no record or pause
and the one I bought with the card will continue to work OK until they switch off the card.I spoke at length with sky and they advised me not to buy any cards or boxes through the internet
Sky+PLus box with hard drive buying second hand ,BIG MISTAKE?
TOMMY B asked:
Sky-plus-HD box changes?
Gulliver asked:
My Sky-Plus-HD box changed format yesterday, and I can’t say I like it at all. Does anyone know if Sky have provided any instructions for how to use this new style? I seem to have lost some features which speeded up moving from page to page quickly by depressing just one button, but now that facility has gone. Also fewer programmes visible on the page due to having a mini screen which very annoyingly plays whatever programme is on – whether you want it or not – whilst you are trying to locate the one you want. Can anyone throw any light on this?
