  • I've used Digiguide for over a year, it's brilliant and I couldn't so without it now. Just sits in the system tray and one click and you have listings for all the channels you want. Good for dial-up users too as you can view it offline. The main features I find useful are the reminders (once, everyweek, everytime) and the fact that it integrates with my DEC-2000t freeview box, so record a program I just click it in digiguide (just like Sky+!). Can't ask for much more for less than a tenner a year!

    Been using Digiguide for several years and it has great power to hook into other hardware for great functionality, sometimes better than sky+.

    I have a psion wavefinder DAB radio hooked into the pc and from my digiguide tv listings i can select radio proggies to record, mostly BBC R4 comedy. But its fab feature is you can setup markers to automatically record programes WHENEVER they appear on the schedules. Lots of fine tuning available and is very powerful.

    Now i've dumped sky+, i'm looking to have digiguide drive a freeview PCI/USB card to time shift/auto record favourite tv progs.

    Checkout digiguide forums on top post (or my referral link ::) http://getdigiguide.com/?p=1&r=13538 ).

    Also checkout Paul webster's great plug-in that interfactes digiguide with lots of A/V hardware, they are very supportive http://www.spidersweb.freeserve.co.uk/dab/dabdig.htm

    Also, with Digiguide, you can do a quick search so if you miss something you can see when it's on again. Much quicker than the Sky planner.
