Hi Steve,
That bit is quite easy. You don't know which programme you are selecting,
but if it is the wrong one, you just press backup, down arrow, then select
or play to get you to the next programme. So while it is a guessing game, I
wouldn't give up my Skyplus now for anything.
All the best

Hi Steve & All,
I was wondering, not having the sky plus system yet, after you program in
your selection, whether it be on the unit, or via the web or sms, how easy
is it to then select the program you want to watch?
Obviously that is, when you get home, smiles.
Best regards.
Steve

Hi Graham,
You probably could, but this is not very satisfactory, as you would have to
give them your Customer Zone user name and password. I don't like doing
that at the best of times, so I asked my sister to help me with it.
All the best

Hi Damon,
I should warn folks though that the process of registering for the SMS
service, is totally inaccessible to us, since you have to register using
Interactive Services, My Sky on the Sky box on which you want recordings
made. There is no way currently to register using the computer alone. I am
registered, and it is fantastic, with a few limitations, but the
registration is not currently do-able without sight. One good thing, you
can have up to eight mobile phones per account registered, so everyone in a
typical household should be able to text the service, from their individual
mobile phones, but you have to register each phone to the service.
All the best

Subject: [access-uk] Sky+ accessible by SMS and internet
Today Sky has launched a service for mobile phones that allows you to SMS
your box from anywhere in the world to record TV programmes. Sky+ is a
satellite receiver with a built in hard disk drive recorder and is
revolutionising the way people consume TV. It's mainly meant for people who
forgot to add things to their planner when at home but has obvious
accessible uses for visually impaired people who cannot access the standard
menus.
But as well as this, Sky is launching an internet service where you can add
things to your Sky+ planner from your computer. This internet service will
be available some time this summer.
