Sky HD - More news
Now Sky HD owners are getting used to the extra resolution on their HDTVs there are a couple of questions about the actual box emerging.
Q. Why can't I record more HD on my Sky+ box? At the moment if you record about eight HD films you will fill up your box (Star Wars III took 12 percent of the recording capacity on its own).
A. Sky have partitioned the drive so another 140GB of storage is sitting waiting for their Video On Demand service when it gets the green light.
Q. Also what is the Ethernet connection for at the back?
A. This again is for future projects including an element to video on demand but there are no specific details as yet.
Q. What about the SATA drive connections? Are there plans to link the Sky HD box up to computer systems?
A. Not yet although Sky has been working with Microsoft to launch a Media Center version of 'Sky By Broadband'.
