Hi,
I know this is wrong place to ask this question, but I can't find anywhere else to ask. I've been subsbribed to uk free tv for ages, but I need to change my email address. I can't find anyway to do this. Do i have to unsubsribe and resubsribe? Posting this under new email, as I think this may subscribe me automatically.

My retune went surprisingly pain free. I like freeview because it's free once you buy the equipment, all other options cost way more. If you don't like adverts, watch everything recorded or slightly behind live, and fast forward through them, I rarely watch an advert.

Actually I do have one gripe, partically on HD recordings, just lately it seems to cut the end of programmes off, never used to be quite so bad, what happened to the little message that supposed to be sent that detects when programmes actually finished?

Thanks Gordon for the info, but if I extend the time it sets it as a timed recording, rather than starting and ending when the programme ends, so if programmes are delayed or moved for any reason it won't then adjust the recording schedule automatically. The clock is accurate, it is displayed on front when dvr is off. Itv hd is worst for missing ends of programmes, most other channels seem to mostly accurately detect ends of programmes correctly.

Some boxes have a skip button that you can set to specific time, 4 minute interval works great for main channels.

Not sure the age of the box is affecting whether you can get bbc4 hd and c4+1 hd, my freeview hd box is 7 years old and picks them up fine.
