    Secondly your changing your argument, first its cables fault, now its skys fault. Make your mind up, you contradict yourself at each turn.



    At no point have I said that its fine for a few to have it and not the masses. I am merely saying that due to the masses ripping the cable company off, this is what has led to N3 being installed.

    And it costs sky nothing for the channels, as they are their channels. They have to pay money for football rights, and other sports rights, and I would imagine they have to pay for tv programs and such to the producers of programmes, and also pay for movies to the studios.

    So nedster1972, what other points would you like to raise? As I have said on numerous occasions, if you dont like what they charge, or dont want to pay then watch terrestrial, or watch it online. Also you have 18 posts, 4 of which are here, and clearly know little or nothing about the cable scene. You have bought a box off a trader of some description, plugged it in and hey presto. Now because there is no easy solution, you want to be spoon fed the answers. Get real!

        JANOBI, JANOBI, JANOBI.
        sky & cable both rip you off i am not singling anyone out you tit i just put sky down as an example.
        plus i don't want to be spoon fed information i merely asked if anyone had the answer i'm sure that is mostly what the internet is used for to find things out.
        i myself know alot about electrical work, plumbing & basic diy skills & on other forums i myself have given people help in these areas.
        if people don,t want to help they don't post simple as that.
        but myself if i know the answer to anyones problems i will help it is nice to help people.
        so if this forum is not for helping people wtf was it set up for then.
        people have problems they post for answers, simple really.

        yes JTH i will use my box until it is cut off then i will watch freeview.
        i can go to the pub to watch a match if i want to or even watch on the internet which by the sounds of it is ok to do but getting a free box is not. as for producers & programmers etc they cost a fraction of the money they rake in you get real mate have a look at the profits these companies make man greed simple greed.

            Thats the best answer you have written in this thread. I am not saying I wont help, however I am not going to spoon feed people the answers. I know for a fact, the answers you require are here. All you need to do, is use the search button, there is a full guide on N3, and what to do after it hits.

            And yes people do already know the answer, myself included, however whats the likelyhood of you staying and contributing to this forum if you get given the answer with a total of 19 posts?

            Im not saying that companies dont make lots of money from what they are doing, but they also have massive overheads, this is the way of business. If your talking about the world, then yes, it is a capatilist world, and I would agree with that statement. However you called me a capatilist, and have continued with the personal insults, which were unwarranted.



            That has all the answers you need and has been here all this time, if you had only bothered to search. That is my point Ned, you didnt seach, just simply asked the question, if you had, then you would of found the answers you required.

            I hope that this wont be your only interaction on the forum, and hope to see you round for a long time. Perhaps when you have been in the cable scene for 4 years, then you will understand where I am coming from.

              if you read my quote i said "but if you are a capitalist like i suspect"
              suspecting & asking a question of if you are? does not mean i called you a capitalist.
              if you go here http://www.digital-kaos.co.uk/forums...online-147239/
              you will see that i had searched for answers to my questions but could not find them all i could find was people searching for the same answers. if i was looking in the wrong place then oops sorry mate if everyone searched in the right place all the time then we would not need the internet or detectives or many more things for that matter.
              as for unwarranted insults i called you a tit because you twisted my words you surely must have known i was on about both sky & virgin when i said they rip us off. that was just a silly snipe by yourself. also in my opinion i thought you were talking arse so i said it. the only other thing i said was you wobblys as you & sirsmeg were going on about paying full wack blah blah blah.
              if i wanted to do that i would not be on here nor would you or anyone else for that matter.
              also does it matter how many posts i have i think i have left posts which people will find helpful this for example was on fusionmans post.
              "ok i found out how to online update commando 12 it really is simple just a shame nobody says anywhere how to do it.
              or at least i cant find it anywhere.
              after flashing & restart connect your dbox to the internet. a network cable through your router works fine. then after setting network settings & closing down menu just press the blue button on remote & a whole new menu comes up called technical.
              on there is commando system menu online update is there.
              simple really.
              but my next thing is this used to have this flash image installed Sportster_ultra [2x] 021109 with which dave, living, bravo etc worked fine. i also have a eurovox 1100usb box on which living dave & bravo etc still work but with my dbox these channels just show blank screen.
              can anyone tell me why or how to rectify this.
              cheers nedster"
              now if anyone goes on there they will now see what they have to do so for having only posted 19 things maybe i will have helped some noobs like myself & to be honest you have to be a noob before you gain the knowledge to help others.

                You implied I was a capatilist, I am not. As I said I am a marxist, which is the total opposite.

                as for unwarranted insults i called you a tit because you twisted my words you surely must have known i was on about both sky & virgin when i said they rip us off. that was just a silly snipe by yourself. also in my opinion i thought you were talking arse so i said it. the only other thing i said was you wobblys as you & sirsmeg were going on about paying full wack blah blah blah.
                I dont really understand the wobblys bit, but hey its probably a colloquialism. And I get my Sly+HD cheap, thats why I have it, am not paying full price. I pay ?19 a month for all hd channels and sky sports.

                I never twisted what you said, you never made it clear, therefore I was able to pick apart your argument. And as you can see I wasn't talking arse at any point.

                if i wanted to do that i would not be on here nor would you or anyone else for that matter.
                also does it matter how many posts i have i think i have left posts which people will find helpful this for example was on fusionmans post.

                cheers nedster
                Again a much better post, although use paragraphs, as it makes it easier to read. And as you can see I pay for my sub, so not here for the free cable, I am here for the forum, and the people, and to help others when I have to knowledge to help.

                Im not saying you aint been helpful ned, but your not the only person who has come here for the answer to questions that cannot be answered. And to a certain extent it does matter how many posts you have, but hey I gave you the answers you needed. Try posting more, or getting involved in the forum, and you will find that peoples attitudes towards you will warm, and people will help you a lot more, and be more accomodating.

                As I said, we have all been n00bs myself included, but we learn by reading, and researching. I cannot answer the rest of your post, as I know nothing about dbox's sorry.

                Hopefully you will still be here in a years time, and you will laugh at this, and think yeah I can see the point that Janobi had made. Or maybe not, you could just get the answer and never come back again.

                      Ned take off the caps, no need to shout. And I dont have cable, I have Sky+HD as it says under my name. And I can indeed get it cheaper. But thats because I work for them

                      Its called the associate package, but I also get sky cheap, as I used to work for them too, so it dont blow any of my argument.

                      Glad to see you posted though, didnt think you would come back tbh. But thats just my opinion. And opinions are like assholes, everyone has one.

                      As for a motorised system, thats the easy part. . Getting it working is the hard part!

                              can i use that dish with any of these systems.
