I'm not sure why it has a USB port then. I have yet to discover a use for it.

If I was a cleverer person, I would have installed my freeview decoder in my bedroom. After all, there are aerial cables in here. But instead I put it in the lounge for everyone to enjoy…

information sharing about all the Freeview options

in that context, I have an lcd tv, no freeview and no aerial or satellite dish. Thinking satellite might be better option in this case?

Does a built-in freeview tv allow you to connect it to another tv or does it only work…

the best use for me is being able to watch TV One news and then go to TV3 news or catch something on One that clashes with a TV3 programme.

Gawd. I struggle to get through one channel of live crosses and whatnot. You do two a night?
