Yes always impressed with the wealth of knowledge here on the access-UK list too! 


It's good too when we can contribute effectively ourselves att times.

What's the old saying:

"look before you leap"! LOL,

Best,

Tony Sweeney

Hi Tony,
Many thanks for the compliments. Always glad to help.
Sky assure me that the Talker will work here as well.
Always willing to experiment.
It was Eleanor who suggested I join this list. So far very impressed with
it.
Take care.
Aedan.

Aedan you have given so much learning to folk like myself on the vip
students list.

Your contributions are great indeed!

Really appreciated the one on Yourtube/Youtube.

Trust that you will get that Talker sorted but it won't be easy!

Sorry Mod going off topic a little bit now.: I'll leave it at that!

best, Tony Sweeney

Hi Peter,
Sincere thanks for prompt reply.
As I am fairly committed to Sky for all the Science and nat Geo channels I 
saw some discussions about the Sky Talker. I hope they improve it for the
plus box which I got primarily to quick record interesting items.
I have written up a tutorial on using the Sky controls blindfold. I am not 
happy that it is reliable as the buttons change function depending where
you
are in the menus.
I gather the Free to air box got an awsard from Which.
I assume the anyone buying the present Sky Talker addon will get a free
upgrade in teh Autumn.
If anyone is willing to sell off their unit I would be willing to take a
chance.
Kind regards
Aedan.

I don't think the sky talker works properly with the Sky HD service yet.
But

when it does work, it does make it easier to record and playback but it's
not that great. It only tells you the programme details you are watching.
I've actually cancelled my sky subscription on that basis as I found
accessible free sat equipment was more useful and meant I could watch more 
tv even though less is on offer because I can read the guide, set series
links and deal with clashes etc.

Hi all,
New to this list.
As a totally blind subscriber to Sky TV since their digital service
started
I would like to know what people think of the Sky Talker. I recently got
the
HD service with the Sky plus box for the family but would like to be able
to
record and replay items better than I can at the moment.
Kind regards to all
Aedan O'Meara.
