With the postal strike we may get into the new year in leeds. One thing is certain their upgrade will affect all boxes. Not much worth watching,no great loss.Football at the pub in future it seems.

.Football at the pub in future it seems.

Where it's now a virtual Sky Monopoly, charging the pubs upwards of ?800 a month- and VM having ditched the Commercial side recently, as it was creating a loss for them...

Apparently, EU Law as regards 'No Borders for Satellite TV' doesn't yet apply to the UK, so far as Sky, the FPL, and their legal Rottweillers are concerned - to keep their cosy little illegal cartel going...

Agreed, also add the fact that you cannot buy an nds hardware cam to use in whatever box you want to own! Unlike other euro providers......

Thats the best reason I've heard yet.






Probably the right one to.

Since the Dbox has an ethernet port I wouldn't say they will be useless when N3 kicks in.

Probably the right one to.

And the daftest reason I have ever heard.

Believe me, it aint a re-branding exercise, how often do you take your card out to look at the branding and feel warm inside???

God dammit! I just took delivery of a sagem d-box 2 today & only came on here for tips setting it up. Please dont let it be a wasted purchase!

[aftabiq]

So if this Nargra 3 hasn't kicked in yet when it does kick in what would be the other option and does any body have any ideas on what i do about the missing channels.

[dctyper]

imminent i would say - i've been around the scene for years and always ignored rumours etc.....but this one i think is genuine....got a stream coming thru my dvb-c card, service called NGTV_Switch......

this means end of dbox et al

i posted ages ago about this, ngtv is a test for adobe flash player over the vm network, its a new way of delivering content. nothing to do with nag3

but yes, they are still ~~~~ed for the time being
