Mike Dimmick: Sorry, when I said "analogue" I meant "analogue" and not NICAM.

The SD sound levels are as they are because they as designed to be the same as the monophonic PAL system.

The information about the relative levels that the BBC use for their HD services was provided to me directly by the BBC and it has nothing to do with a "downmix", just the removal of dynamic range compression.

U: This is allowed under the EU "Teleivison Without Frontiers" directive, it is called "retransmission" and it is specifically allowed.

No payment, however, can be taken by the company doing the retransmission, for services from other EU states.

So, as no charge is made, no payment is made either.

This applies to any TV channel transmitted in the EU free-to-air.

Steve P: It does not usually take long, if nothing appears to happen then you probably do not have a good quality satellite signal.

Duncan Brack: You can't record from the television set, if you want to use a PVR then you will need to supply it with a suitable satellite or terrestrial signal.

jas: the obvious next step is to plug the magic eye direcly into the Sky box and see if the remote operates then (making sure it isn't pointing at the front of the box too).
