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

[DemonFrog 1,347]

"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.

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.

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.

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].

I would be too.

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

A pvr? A pvr? Where do you think Romsey is ? When do you think Romsey is? Just let me test you DC - please explain what a pvr is in order that I can be sure of your credibility.

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.
