    Selecting view on the taskbar Right Click, enable 'advanced controls' and a record button should appear. Press the button and it records

    Tested and works for me
    works brilliant, but when I right click on the taskbar I don't have a record button, is this on the select channel menu on vlc player

          Doubt its a perl library problem, im fairly certain ubuntu comes with some flavour of perl 5.xx.xx so that shouldnt be an issue.

          Its more likely some kind of error with permissions, try executing via sudo temporarily and see if that works, if not execute permissions might be disabled and it cant link vlc.

                    Bet you don't get Oz style Aerobics tho.
                    But seriously tho, it looks a cracking piece of software. Just hope Micky's case was a one off glitch.

                            Mac version

                            Hi there,

                            been having some problems with the Mac version. When I try and run the program I get:

                            dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/lib/libutil.dylib
                            Referenced from: /Applications/British TV
                            Reason: image not found

                            Googling tells me that it's probably something to do with Perl, but I really don't know.

                            I'm running 10.4.11 on PowerPC (need a new laptop from Santa).

                            Any ideas?

                              this cannot be streamed from one STB. It will need one STB for each channel and the Upload will be far too much for any internet connection. The streams are either from a Studio or redirected streams.
