Hi, I'm using a satelite tuner card in a small silent media centre PC using Windows 7 and media centre. Far more accessible than any set top box out there I think.

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.Peter -----Original Message----- From: Aedan O'Meara Sent: Friday, June 03, 2011 9:25 PM To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [access-uk] Sky Talker 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 torecord and replay items better than I can at the moment. Kind regards to all Aedan O'Meara. ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq
