Quality TV
« on: 29 March 2009, 12:36:53 »

Usually out playing golf on a Sunday morning but re-discovered Country File this morning. Top quality TV!
It's changing to 7pm. as from next Sunday so I'll be able to watch it regularly now.
Shouldn't be missed in my opinion.

being a country boy, I do tend to have it on (though not necessarily watch it). Shame about the new time though.

See, you could reduce that down to 1 device (Vision aside, don't think they have a Windows solution yet?) with MCE. Added advantage, is watchable on any TV in house via extenders (eg, xbox360).  Plus, its a bloody good upscaler for SD stuff ;)

Good programme apart from the modern malaise of telling you what they are going to tell you, telling you and then telling you again. They also keep slipping in "repeats" like the fellow sea horse fishing last week, but maybe their budgets have been cut.


Now't wrong with video recorders.  Do you remember the days of analogue TV when you could record one channel and watch another at the [size=12]same time    size]. With service improvements like digital and modern technology that isn't so easy now!

And my current 3 Nebula card machine can record 3 multiplexes of programs at once. Fills up the hard drive kind of fast  ;D ;D ;D
