Hi Pele Bob and Ray
Sorry I've been unable to reply earlier as my email and machine have been
down.
I've used the stick quite a bit and like the epg as it allows programme
selection. I know that frames would help make it even more accessible but I
haven't developed that skill yet. Ray's development of framing the name of
the channel so it is announced seems a welcome addition.
Have any of you tried the neew drivers yet? I picked them up from the
website and used them to clean my older ones and replace them. I'm not sure
how good they are yet as my machine's been playing up. I seem to have one or
two gremlins though. They appear to work fine, but when setting a program in
the epg when it comes time to record nothing gets done. This is probably my
machine but I wondered if any of you found the same. After loading in the
new drivers you just load in the same old software from the disk.
Regards.
Gordon

Hi Bob
As far as I am aware, the Freecom stick does not pick up text from the TV,
unless there is a setting I have missed. It picks all the Freeview stations
and allows
you to access the Electronic Programme Guide. This means you can set it to
record programmes.
I hope he won't mind me saying this, but Gordon McFarlane is the expert in
this field. He has written a number of e-mails about this product.
