RE: Sky+160

["Stuart McMillan" <stuartmc@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Stewart,

I believe the 160 is only made by Thomson.

I have a series 1 PACE Sky+ which has run well for about 5 years. Hard disk
is beginning to cause problems so probably needs replacing but other than
that PACE would get my vote. The Sky engineer that replaced my 160 said he
thought the standard one was coming with an 80G drive now or soon, might be
worth checking.

Stuart,
Thanks for your response and also for the link which I'll follow up.

Your experience of 2 boxes within 6 months nicely leads into my next
question:

As far as I know Sky+ boxes are made by Pace, Amstrad and Thomson - is any
one of these better than the rest?

Stewart

Stewart,

Lip Sync issues specific to 160 were on Sky Movies 1 + 2 and Disney Channel
on recorded programmes. Most Sky channels seem to have the occasional
lip-sync issues. Can't say I've noticed it so much recently on my 160
although now on my second box in 6 months.

Always worth checking the digital spy forums for this sort of thing

Hi,
I recall issues of lip sync with Sky+160 being raised last year.

Has anyone got recent experience of this or has it been fixed?

Stewart
