I find VOD useful for when the V6 clips recordings or when programmes overrun.

I soon found that adding padding caused problems at peak times and that most programmes didn't overrun.

The main problems seem to be not recording whilst in Standby, recordings only being made for the first few minutes of a programme, missing channels and certain recordings causing the box to reboot. I've experienced the first three, but not the fourth.

Interestingly, the DTT licence list has changed as follows:

Changed:
- BTPreview
... into:
+ BTPreviewHD

Changed:
- BTSportShowcase
... into:
+ BTSportShowcaseHD

That would indicate that they are now able to carry these in HD or convert them to HD later on Freeview.

I wonder if we will be getting these free BT Sport channels in HD on VM?
