Thinking of BT Vision - Bit of help please

Just joined BT for broadband, due to go live on Friday. Have also been offered Vision however my Sky contract isn't up until 22 May. However, if I can get a good deal I don't mind overlaping the two for a month.
I have been doing a bit of research into BT Vision to see if it fits my needs. I am finding myself watching the same old channels and same old programs on sky. I tend to record most of my TV now and very rarely watch 'live', so I think the on demand aspect of BT Vision would suit me perfectly.
My main feature would be Sport and more specifically football.
Both sky sports 1 & 2 channels are on different media. Virgin, BT Vision and now top up tv freeview.
My question is does anyone know where the majority of football games will be shown next season? Will it be on Sky sports 1 & 2 or will they move it over to 3 and 4 so that people on other media cannot watch without subscribing to Sky?
At the moment majority of games are 1 and 2 with the odd game on 3 and 4.
This will have an impact on wether I chose BT or not. Mainly interest in premier league, but would like as much football as possible. I also like the idea of the fee ESPN as well, which would save £10 per month compaired to Sky.
Any other tips anyone can give before making the switch?
Help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Solved!

I don't think anyone will be able to tell you what Sky plan to do with football.
TBH if Sport is the main reason for watching TV you should stick with Sky.

  • 64-bit Smart View + Excel 2010 64-bit Issues - Help Please

    Hello everyone.
    First, I am not an "IT guy" so please bare with me as I am not technical but need help.
    I am running Windows 7 64-bit Professional and Excel 2010 64-bit. I installed Oracle Smart View for Office, Fusion Edition 64-bit as an add-in within Excel.
    I have worked with our "Hyperion Admins" to connect to the right server so that my "private connections" are set correctly (hopefully that makes sense).
    However, when I attempt to refresh my Smart View query I end-up retrieving no data. The "refresh" button under "Smart View" in Excel will proceed as a refresh is occurring but then not return data (I know this Smart View template works as I've used it many times on 32-bit Excel).
    Our admins have informed me that I cannot use 64-bit Smart View because our "server" is on a 32-bit O/S (or something similar to that). To me, the logic doesn't make sense and I'm hoping that there is a solution the admins are not aware of.
    Happy to answer any questions and appreciate any help.

    We had a similar experience as JTF, HsGetValues would not work but the AdHoc function worked fine. I put in an SR with Oracle and they refereced the below document. We ended up having IT install 32 bit office on the machine along with 32 bit Smartview (11.1.2.2.300) and now it is working fine.

    Applies to:
    Hyperion Financial Management - Version 11.1.2.2.000 and later
    Information in this document applies to any platform.
    Symptoms
    When using Smart View (SV) with Microsoft Office 2010 SP1 some SV functions do not work or cause Excel application to crash.
    Cause
    In 64-bit versions of Excel 2010 SP1, the presence of Smart View functions may cause Excel to terminate abruptly and may prevent Copy Data Point and Paste Data Point functions from working. This has been identified as a defect in Microsoft product.
    Solution
    Use the 32-bit version of Smart View until Microsoft issues fix for their 64-bit Office products.

  • Zen Vision M Problem, help please A

    Just got a Zen vision M, and its really pissing me off. I installed all the software, and plugged it into the computer. The blue light started flashing, and has been for the past 3-4 hours. I then tried plugging it into a wall adapter i have that has a USB port on it. thsi caused the screen to come on (shock horror!) and the charging symbol to come on in the top right corner. I left that for an hour, but to my display it did not charge at all. At one point it turned on and started playing music, but then turned off after about 5 minutes. Please help

    You could try rebuilding - with the Zen turned on, press the reset button (at the bottom next to data connector) with something like a straightened out paper clip. This will make the Zen reread all the tracks and rebuild it's database. It'll take a few minutes. If that doesn't work, try a full reset - see http://forums.creative.com/creativel...p&message.id=3?Try "reboot" first, then "clean up". Good luck!?Jim

  • Need a tiny bit of help please!

    Hey guys,
    I have a full set of renders for a character. At this time I
    have a 3 point stand and an 8 point walk motion. Basically 3
    separate images for standing and 8 separate images for walking.
    I want to use AS3 and have the character standing and doing
    the 3 point animation. Then I want to make him walk via user
    control with the 8 walk images.
    To this point I have searched everywhere for a tutorial on
    how to do this but all I end up finding is for artists and how to
    draw the animations. But like I said, I have the animation images,
    I just need to learn how to implement them into flash.
    In the end to learn this, all I want to do is to properly
    encorperate the images into flash so that I can do a test movie and
    have the character doing his stand animation and then when I press
    left or right have him do the walk animation. From there I will go
    onto collision and whatever I feel like learning at that time.
    Right now, just getting a standing animation and a user controlled
    walk would be great.
    Could anybody point me towards a good tutorial on how to do
    this?
    Thanks in advance for any help you can give.

    A lot of the avi files made on Windows machines use variable bit rate mp3 audio, which QT will not play. One workaround is to use this freeware Windows video processor to change the format of the avi audio.
    VirtualDub
    Open the avi in VirtualDub, set the video menu to Direct Stream Copy and set the audio to Full Processor Mode. Then choose either uncompressed audio in the compression item in Audio Menu or IMA audio. Now open the avi and then use Save as Avi in the File menu. The video will be passed through with no change to the new avi but the audio will be changed to the new compression setting. The two compression types I mentioned will play in QT Player with no problem. You will need to have the video codec for the avi in Video for Windows form. If you can play the avi in Windows Media Player you have the right codec already.

  • I think my computer has been hacked, help please?

    Hi,
    A couple of days a go, after having my laptop for nearly two years, I have started to have major issues with it. When I log on, as soon as I get on to my desktop, without any encouragement, it starts doing its own thing such as the mouse moving around in a very jagged manner and generally resisting anything I attempt to do. It is making my computer incredably slow and its so frustrating. Even worse, I am frightened I may have picked up something and that someone is controlling my machine but the issue is I know so very little about computers, any advice would be greatly appreciated.
    I have changed browsers (used to use Safari, now I use FireFox) and have backed up all my files on to a hard drive and am thinking about restoring the mac to it's factory settings but I am unsure whether this would mean I would lose all my applications which I desperately can't afford to do. It only happens occasionally, so at the present it is fine but it occurs out of the blue and is very unnerving. I have two anti virus programmes on here: ClamXav and iAntiVirus which suggest that there are no virus found on the computer. I have also been monitoring the activity monitor and although nothing has particularly drawn much attention, it can be fair to say I am not entirely sure what I am looking for.
    Is there any way to double check to see as to whether my computer is infected and if so what would be my next move?
    Muchly appreciated

    The anti-virus software is not the problem.  Yes, Shootist is correct that AV software can be almost as much of a problem as getting infected with malware, but ClamXav is one that is good.  Having two isn't so good, though, so ditch iAntivirus at least.  And see my Mac Malware Guide for more information to protect yourself from malware.
    Similarly, the firewall is also not the problem.  You almost certainly do not need a firewall.  See Do I need a firewall? for more information on that.
    Most likely, you are not being hacked.  If I understand you correctly, it doesn't seem like the mouse has any purpose to its actions - is that correct?  If so, my first thought would be that your battery has gone bad and is expanding, and in the process is pressing on the underside of the trackpad.  That is a known cause of this kind of behavior.  Though I must admit I've never seen a battery expand, it does happen.  I'd advise getting the machine looked at by Apple ASAP.
    If the movements do appear purposeful, someone could be playing a prank on you.  Check System Preferences -> Sharing and make sure everything there is turned off.  If Screen Sharing is on, someone may have been using that to access your machine, most likely someone who knows your MobileMe password (if you have MobileMe) or someone on the same local network that you're using.
    (Note that my pages contain links to other pages that promote my services, and this should not be taken as an endorsement of my services by Apple.)

    If it's become corrupted you'll need to reinstall the OS to be sure of repairing it properly. If you're on 10.6 that won't affect your accounts and data, but as you don't mention what OS you have we can't give specific advise on the install.

  • I think  I did something really bad..need help please

    When my Iphoto 5 became very slow, I thought I'd be really smart and delete some files, but now I can't view my photos in the edit window, just the thumbnail. I think I deleted the IPhoto library. Can someone help me restore the settings to the proper way. I tried to import my photos from a cd, they import ok, but I can't view them. Help Please. Obviously I'm no pro here, so any advice would be greatly appreciated. Laura

    Well, that's a very bad sign but let's not give up yet.
    You indicated that you may have deleted the library. IF that's correct, you're screwed. Do your best to locate it. Although I've frequently told persons never to mess with the innards of the library, at this point you can't make things worse. If you can locate the library, take it apart and look for large files - 250K or larger. Those are your photos. Put them somewhere safe for the time being. (Small files are thumbnails or aliases.)
    Again, post back with results.
