SKY Pay Once Watch Forever

chalky_bertie

Hi,

Can someone tell me that if we have this product installed on the main telly, can we video something on a channel while watching a different one. Having big problems with freeview boxes connected to the telly with a video so hoping this is any better.

As far as I am aware you have to pay sky £10 for the privileged of recording on sky+ box

The simple answer is no.

The box in the payonce offer is a standard box and only has one tuner

Why dont you just get a freeview+ box pvr it can record 2 channels and sometimes show a 3rd, Humax are one of the best makes on the market.

Would I still be able to use my video recorder to record programmes so I can watch them in bed on an even older vcr?

FYI Sky scrapped the £10 charge for Sky + 2 years ago, as long as you subscribe to the minimum Sky package @£16.50/month. You do need the Sky+ box though.

Yes on a Humax box you can it has two scar sockets. One for TV and one to video recorder well at least mine two boxes do, freesat+ and freeview+ both Humax. I never tried it though
