[access-uk] Re: initial comments on tvonics

Hello Will
Agree with you about the tvonics box. I have just got one and it was incredibly easy to set up once connected. Yes, I also have the issue with the program guide you mentioned. As for the remote control link, I think this needs a little patience as I had the same issue you were having. I just carried on trying and eventually it worked. I think the issue here is purely technical as some makes and models of television sets have more than one access code and some won't work even when the tvonics thinks you have found the code so you have to carry on until the right one is found. I found that by trying the coding sequence again, the box won't let you put in another code as it is deemed to be correct. Another thing to point out is that when adjusting the volume, you have to adjust it by pressing and releasing the volume control rather than continuously holding the volume to go up or down. 

Hope this helps.

Martin

Subject: [access-uk] initial comments on tvonics
hi all, i took the plunge and got my tvonics today. overall it is i agree leaps and bounds over goodmans or even portsets offering. 
couple of queries please.
what cable can i connect to the optical out? is this for say a phono to headphone jack to record to say a dvd or a computer if we want? 
the program guide or is it just me, has a bug.
when one arrows through it i agree it will not be the most responsive as the ivona voice is of an exceptional quality so you have to accept trade-offs, but i find repetitions keep occurring. that is to say, i may press right arrow and hear eastenders 19:30-20:00 then when i right arrow id on't hear the next program, but eastenders, again. is this normal please? learning the basics of it now but the scart set up for me at least, was fine. when i connected my aerial cable, and scart lead and turn on the tv the box came up talking and asked me to press blue (bottom right hand button) for talking features.
Finally when i set the tv linking up and turn off the tv with the tv button it does not turn on again via the same button but requires the physical tv remote to be used. 
any thoughts on comments?
overall though great job, set up a couple of recording for this afternoon, too
