    TV On Demand is VOD (Video On Demand) via the red button, and talkback. As the dBox2 doesn't have a Talkback facility (hence it can't be 'seen' on the system)- then you cannot get VOD with it, sorry!

      Thanks al for your reply,
      What I was meaning.
      Is the scanning range outwith the vod channels, ie, if I'm watching a vod on my subbed box and scan with dbox should I be able to pick up that vod channel?

        In theory- yes, but I haven't tried this, so cannot say for sure. It would take a bit of finding in your services / bouquets on the dbox, though. But having paid for it for 24 hrs on the subbed box, when you do track it down on the dbox- whether you can record it or not (which is your next question, LOL!)- I honestly don't know...

        I certainly can't record a VOD movie offa my subbed box, but once it's showing on the dbox? Well, my guess is, you could?

        Cheers- AL
