BBC HD Schedule
Once again the BBC HD stuff things up. Set Recording for the Tudors Series 3 on friday. The Athletics overran by nearly 20 minutes and even with my extended recording of 10 minutes I've missed the end. Not a problem I thought I'll use catch up or BBC I player.............can I find it? I'm getting a little tired of this...........yawn..................zzzzzzzzzzzzz zzzzzz.

Re: BBC HD Schedule
I had the same issue with rick stein food odyssey the athletics had gone over... I now have changed the settings on my V+ to allow it to record more minutes before/after the show starts..I had caught up on the show on iplayer but the quality on BBC HD was much better

Hope it helps.

What is the bitrate/quality of the BBC iPlayer HD on V+?

It is 3500kbps on a PC.

18mbit/sec.

Just imagine how many channels Virgin could squeeze in if they got rid of MPEG2?

Are you sure that's the rate for BBC iPlayer HD Catch Up TV and not the live broadcast BBC HD?
