Frustration is rearing its ugly head because of the statements made by snapstream regarding integration and DVB support. The reason I request support is that in a few years the only TV available in the UK will be via Satellite and cable, by which point will be HD or Freeview (DVB). Therefore the only way I forsee being able to record HD without a huge subscription fee, if indeed possible is by DVB. Why are you getting so frustrated by other peoples requests. Calm down you'll give yourself a hernia!

My gripe was never meant for those who have the courtesy of thinking their posts out and wording them so as not to offend others.

It's the fanatics which believe in the "my way or the highway" theory that aggrivate me. I made it very clear that "Integration was more important than DVB" was MY OPINION and not necessarily the holy grail which everyone should follow, yet that was taken out of context and turned around against me. I also stated that due to the numbers of people looking for Integration as compared to DVB, it didn't make sense for SS to devote time. money, and effort into developing a feature which only part of the world could use as compared to one (Integration) which would be useful across the board. (The unofficial feature request poll is a good indication of what people are looking for, isn't it?)

If a feature is built into a product in the hopes that it captures a market share previously unavailable, however never really catches on or makes a substantial difference, why would a company continue to invest into it?
