I got a wooden spoon for Xmas (someone thinks I am a Expansion Supporter)

"Rolex" I only got liquor.

On another note, I probably have 50+ old VHS tapes of Melbourne in the 80's & 90's. A lot of Jako (11 against NM etc) Anyone interested in converting them, or is it not worth it?

I did not think the MFC had a team in the VFL/AFL back in the 80's or 90's or the 10's for that matter. Well thats what my shrink keeps telling me.

Its Moonie, its how he rolls!


Assuming it is a serious question, which is funny in itself.

If they cancel your service you lose all the saved data on your foxtel IQ.

It was a serious question. I don't have Foxtel IQ - I simply pay a monthly fee for a plan that gives access to certain stations. In my world a harddrive is part of my computer and Foxtel is pay tv - The twains don't meet.

Any news on the hard drive Mr. Leg?

foxtel iq is a box which detunes the cable signal (or satellite) and also contains a PVR hence the hard drive

so it's a digital tuner and pvr in one box

i asume you know what a pvr is

I know how much Redleg loves his racing videos but this has piqued my interest. If I kept videos of all of the shows, sports including footy I tape on iq, I would run out the 100% of space allocated very quickly. Is there a way to save certain material from your iq onto another drive or are you stuck with what Foxtel allocates?

[No abuse please - I know nothing about Foxtel. I just press buttons and watch the shows - thank you]

AFAIK your best bet is to buy a DVD recorder with 320+gig HD, dump the data onto the DVD recorder then burn to usb or dvd /cd disc. I know a panasonic dvd recorder will do it. But havent tried it with foxtel myself. Some tech wizards on here might know of a better way. I looked into this a few yrs ago. I have a panasonic recorder that I use to record, then burn to dvd from the TV, But never invested in foxtel.There was info on the net about setting this up.

I also have a lot of VHS tapes (of wins only) from the 80s to the present. Not many recent wins though.

Thanks for that - I might invest in one of those.

Cheers

NP. But like I said that info was a few yrs ago, today there might be a better and cheaper way to do it. IIRC foxtel passes through the DVD recorder and the recorder to the TV. I used the panasonic not just for recording from the TV, but I edited a bucket load of VCR tapes on to cd /dvd edited out the adverts etc.So it has added benefits. Like anything in life do your research 1st. then make a descision.

They explained to me that the IQ box has a hard drive and they wiped it. I know there are more important issues in the world, but I am still [censored].

Any form of compensation Redleg e.g. Three months free subscription or similar?

Understand. I have had similar issues with telstra. The problem is usually made worse because you are speaking to someone a zillion k's away who does not give a flyer.

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.

  • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

    Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

  • REPORT: Adelaide

    The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.
