[access-uk] Re: nebula versus USB TV stick

Hi Brian, that's very useful information.  I've been watching this thread with 
some interest before making my decision.  Can you give me the model of the 
Nebula system?  And, is it available through the normal outlets?  Dabs, Amazon 
etc?

Regards.

Steve

  Hi

  Well having tried the freecom USB stick again on another PC this morning and 
  got completely frustrated at the fact that it just wasn't recording 
  anything, I decided to get out my Nebula USB digital receiver which I can 
  now use as I have a new TV aerial where my computers are.

  I have not used the Nebula software for a long time and I installed the 
  latest version today and I am really glad I did.  In my view, there is 
  absolutely no comparison between the USB TV stick and the Nebula solution. 
  All the items with Nebula are accessible, even the programme descriptions, 
  and no special configuration is required.  It unobtrusively records 
  programmes, even those with audio description.  Furthermore, the multitude 
  of options available is quite amazing and all very easy to use.

  So I may either let someone such as a family member have the USB TV stick or 
  it's going back.  The good thing that has come out of me purchasing this 
  device is the fact that I have a tV aerial now so I can use the Nebula box 
  (smile). The regret I have is that I have the USB nebula box as opposed to 
  the internal TV card so it's not quite as tidy.  On the other hand, if I 
  change my computer, at least I can easily swap it over.  But I would 
  certainly recommend using Nebula to anyone even though I have only been 
  using it for a couple of hours.
