Using the TV inbuilt freeview

We have just replaced our old CRT tv (no inbuilt freeview) with a nice new LG LED tv (with inbuilt freeview).  One of the benefits of doing this was that I thought we'd be able to watch the freeview via the TV, while allowing the BT Vision box to record two other programmes (i.e. we could 3 things at once rather than 2).  The TV and the BT Vision Box are connected both via the RF co-ax and a HDMI cable.
Now, watching freeview via the HDMI cable from the BT Vision Box is great, but the TV can't find any signal from the RF co-ax and so I can't watch the freeview from the TV via its in built freeview tuner.  Now reading some other posts, it seems to suggest that the Black BT Vision Box does do 'RF pass through' to the OUT RF connector (although no TV modulator so doesn't send the de-modulated Freeview channels this way).  I took this to mean the original signal from the external aerial is passed out the RF out to my TV.
Am I reading this right?
And if I am, any suggestions as to why my new TV can't see the freeview signal?
Thanks.

Yes, you just connect the RF-Out on the back of the BT Vision+ box to the Aerial-In socket on the TV using the cable that came with the BT box. It passes a copy of the original signal through to the TV.
I have however noticed with my box that if I have the BT Vision+ box turned on (blue) the signal being passed through is a bit weaker. If I put the BT Vision+ box into standby (purple) the signal being passed through gets stronger according to the TV. Not sure if I just have a dodgy box or if this is common across BT Vision+ boxes.
If the BT Vision+ box is put into eco mode (red) or turned off at the mains then no signal is passed through.

  • How do I stop users from using the standard inbuilt VPN connection in Windows

    We have a UAG Portal setup to check the security of users computers etc then if it is all correct they are presented with the log in and once logged in the are connected to the corpirate network via a SSTP connection.  The all works fine but the issue
    I have is users can bypass all the checking but just going into network connections on their local computer and creating a SSTP VPN connection, like on this webpage http://blogs.technet.com/b/tugait/archive/2011/10/12/how-to-publish-a-vpn-sstp-using-your-uag-in-a-https-trunk.aspx
    Any idea how to stop users being able to do this and forcing them to use Internet Explorer?

  • I use an iphone 3gs can i set one of the song as ring tone or i will only be able to use the inbuilt ringtones?

    i use an iphone 3gs can i set one of the song as ring tone or i will only be able to use the inbuilt ringtones?

    yes you can
    A. how to make a ringtone using iTunes
    First, open up iTunes in order to make a ringtone using iTunes. Find the song you want to turn into a ringtone by browsing through your music library.
    Next, find exactly what part of the song you want to make a ringtone using iTunes. For example, if you want to use a specific section of the song from 21 seconds to 40 seconds, make a note of where you want the ringtone to begin and end.
    Now, right click on the song you want to turn into a ringtone. Click "Get Info". Now, in order to make a ringtone using iTunes, click the "Options" tab.
    Check the "Start Time" check box. Type in the point in the song where you want the ringtone to start in the format "minute:seconds" (e.g. the second mark would be 0:20). You can also be more precise by adding a period and putting milliseconds in after that (e.g. 0:20.150, would be 20.150 seconds). Also, click the "Stop Time" check box and enter where you would like the ring tone to end. Keep in mind ringtones can only be around 39 seconds maximum. Press "Ok". We are almost done making a ringtone in iTunes
    Now, right click on the same song. Select "Convert AAC Version". If it is in another file format, you can go to "Edit" then "Preferences" and under the "General" tab click "Import Settings"; change the file format to AAC. After you select "Convert AAC Version" a new file will be created, but it will only be the segment of the song that you specified earlier.
    Now, you have to find the file you just created. Right click on the new, shorter song and select "Open in Windows Explorer". The file extension should be .m4a. Rename the extension to .m4r by right clicking the file and selecting "Rename".
    Now you can delete the shortened version of the song in your iTunes library. Then, double click the .m4r file and it will loaded into your iTunes Ringtone list. Now you can make a ringtone using iTunes!

  • Can Sky use the Freeview logo like that?

    Surprised this hasn't come up already.  Now that we have Sky Sports the first thing I noticed was that Sky have added an extra logo next to the Sky Sports 1/2 logo in the top right on the digital terrestrial transmission.  The logo is the same shape as the Freeview logo which suggests this is being done to ensure no pubs, etc are using the BT/TopUp version of Sky Sports as I believe BT/TopUp aren't allowed to sell to commercial premises.  Now, I thought Sky had already taken care of this with the 'pint glass' logo on the Pub versions of Sky Sports on digital satellite which means there shouldn't be any need for this extra logo which is permanently on, even during the commercials which of course could result in screen burn, etc.
    So, a few questions really:
    As the 'shape' is that of the Freeview logo, are they actually allowed to use it?
    Who asked for it to be there, BT or Sky?
    Can it be changed / removed / moved?
    Why does it need to be there at all?
    ---Remember to mark as 'solved' and give stars when you like a post---

    Additional information.   Can this be right?
    I spoke to Apple support who said that the settings for podcast syncing in iTunes are no longer being used since Apple moved to their Podcast app. 
    This may explain why I see all 45 podcasts on my iphone when I only have 15 of them set to sync.
    She also said that I would need to manually sync listened/unlistened podcasts between my Mac and my mobile devices since podcasts were no longer being synced from iTunes.
    Can anyone verify?

    It's not an Adobe font. We don't have the text of the license to be able to give you an opinion. What does the license say? If you have questions about a font distributed by Microsoft with Windows, why don't you simply contact Microsoft and ask them?

  • How do I use the built-in camera or webcam?

    I know this may sound very elementary but there was no documentation with my Mac when I bought it new (except a thin flimsy pamphlet with very baic stuff in it) and the help menu comes up with nothing at all when I search for web cam, webcam or isight.
    Where do I go to learn about how to use the built-in camera/web cam as a camera and also as a web cam?
    Thank you

    There should have been a seventy page booklet in the box with your new iMac.  If yours is the latest version, clicking here will download it if you cannot find the physical copy.  If yours is an older iMac model, you can search for the correct manual from the iNtel iMac Support Page > "Manuals" link.
    After that, Mac 101 is a great web-based information source.  If you don't need general help, take a look here for specifics about each application of interest.
    VortexBoy wrote: ... and the help menu comes up with nothing at all when I search for web cam, webcam or isight....
    If your posted info is correct that you are running Mac OS X (10.7.3), you should be able to get started by using your Mac's Finder > Help menu command.  Searching for "camera" (without quotation marks) on my 10.7.3 Mac returns Mac's Help article entitled "Use your Mac’s built-in camera."  This is the web version of the same help.
    Other apps, like QuickTime Player (the Lion QT 10.x version), and iMovie (part of iLife that came with your Mac) can also use your iMac's camera. 
    iMovie Help or this web page version of the same help will explain how to "Record video directly into iMovie".
    Use QTX Player's File > New Movie Recording menu command to record video with it.  You can configure size and quality of the recorded material by using QTX's preferences as shown in this image:
    VortexBoy wrote: ... Where do I go to learn about how to use the built-in camera/web cam as a camera and also as a web cam? ...
    Different apps do not all work the same.  For function-specific help, search Help in separate camera applications; i.e., after you launch Photo Booth, iChat, QTX, iChat, etc., use the individual app's Help menu command to search for more info on the camera or what you want to do.
    This article offers great basic tips about how to position, light, and use built-in cameras.  Although its subject shows it was written for iMacs, it is equally applicable to other reader's inbuilt Apple cameras, too.
    For more specialized functions than those offered by the camera software already included with your Mac, you can search the Mac App Store for other apps that can use your camera.
    For webcam help with iChat, use Apple's iChat Support page if you need more help that that provided in the dialog boxes and iChat > Help on your Mac.
    To use your camera with FaceTime, search your Mac's FaceTime > Help or these web versions of the same Help topics that should be available on your Mac.
    Skype or other third party webcam apps will offer their own Help menus of varying quality.  In additon to these app Help services, some apps offer comprehensive Support services via their web page.  If you decide to add Skype to your Mac, you can click here to review the excellent Skype Support pages.
    If you need to start a new topic for specific questions after you get started, give as much detail about what you want to do and what you may have already tried unsuccessfully.  We will offer specific suggestions based on the details you provide.
    Enjoy your new Mac!

  • How to enable an apple french (azerty) wireless keyboard to type in french whilst retaining the normal inbuilt qwerty keyboard typing in english?

    Hi there, I recently bought an apple wireless azerty French keyboard to go with my English macbook air, as for my degree I often have to type in French. However, upon connecting it to the macbook air it instantly started typing as though it had the qwerty layout and only by going on system preferences and changing the language & text imput sources to French was I able to get it to type in the correct azerty manner.
    The problem I have is that this also changed my macbook's inbuilt qwerty keyboard to the azerty format, and so I wondered if anyone could tell me how I can make the wireless azerty keyboard instantly be recognised as typing in the french format when I turn it on, whilst retaining my inbuilt keyboard's qwerty layout, rather than constantly having to change them both in system preferences?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    That's not possible.
    But switching keyboard layouts is very simple.  Either use the "flag" menu at the top right of the screen or the keyboard shortcut apple/command plus space.
    If you don't see the ¨flag¨, check the box for Show Input Menu in Menu Bar in the Input Sources pane.
    If the keyboard shortcut doesn´t work, you may have to change the shortcut for Spotlight, which is often the same.

    Hi screen name,
    Adobe PDF printer gets installed when you install Acrobat 10 Pro.
    To use this printer you need to purchase Acrobat. Once the trial period is over you cannot use the printer to create pdf files.
    An alternative way for you is to utilize Microsoft's own inbuilt pdf engine.
    You can simply open the file and select 'Save as' and in the type list select 'pdf'

  • Hi. Can you tell me if using the sat nav functionality on the in-built maps app on my iphone 5, uses just GPS (hence no cost) or GPS and data roaming, hence a running cost for the extent of my journey?

    Hi
    As the tile says, I am looking to find out if I need to purchase an actual Sat-nav app or if I can use the inbuilt functionality and not incur additional data charges
    Thanks

    The built in Maps apps requires a data connection to download mapping data. So, if you want to avoid data costs, you need to purchase a navigation app that stores the data locally on your phone.

  • Do any iPod Touch apps use the BT chip?

    Do any of the iPod Touch apps use the Bluetooth chip? I also read that this is the same broadcom chip that can be used for FM tuning. Does any app use this feature or has this been disabled, too? I want to make sure that I am not missing out on some cool new feature.

    You're not missing out on anything. The Bluetooth functionality in the 2nd Generation iPod touch isn't even enabled yet so no apps could use it even if they wanted to until v3.0 comes out.
    There has been no mention of FM functionality being activated, and since no iPod has ever had an inbuilt FM receiver it's unlikely the iPod touch will. FM transmitter is more likely, but still no mention of it.
