Can't record BBC HD Preview with Sky HD+??

[TheCake]

Anyone else try it?

Channel 145. Try and record it. Its a teaser for Planet Earth HD...

Its set up to not be recordable, same with channel 998 (sky demo/welcome channel) as its a constant looping demo

Is Sky HD worth it Si ? I am toying with the idea ATM

Thanks Mole. Thought I was going mad!

Thomas... its only worth it really if you're into science/nature/national geographic programs - like I am, as otherwise its a bit ahead of its time.

Discovery HD - Sunrise Earth 6am everyday, THE reason to have HD. Sensational.

We have just got the latest Sony Bravia V Series TV and the pictures in HD are simply amazing. So much better than regular digital signals (incidentally, I found the old cathode TV a lot better in some types of program compared to the new TV, especially football).

As moreand more programs are recorded in HD, and more channels are able to broadcast in this medium, things will get a lot better. We have HD through NTL and whilst the pictures are awesome, I still think it is a little expensive for the amount of channels that are currently available. We don't have Sky Sports HD yet though which we are thinking about, as the movements of the players when in motion does not seem very smooth. My Dad suspects that Sky purposelly do this to get early adopters (like most of us in here I suspect!) to take up the new HD service. Does anyone have Sky Sports HD yet, or suffer from this problem without it on a larger LCD screen?

Cheers.

I have Sky Sports HD 1 and 2. 37" Toshiba screen, no problems, fluid and smooth. Love it.

Not sure of top of my head, the new 40" LCD V Series Bravia. I noticed the same fault in the shop though. It's not too bad, just not crystal sharp like the other channels are when players are sprinting.
