    Hi all, thanks for all the "clues" in this thread for setting up a UK tivo with 2.5.5 - now I can still watch sky while recording FTA using the internal tuner Only one question, is it possible to get NICAM from the rf output? My TV says it outputs mono (although I can still use the output from the scart connector instead anyway).

    We really need to write a full guide for setting up a UK tivo, but in the mean time here are some tips for the next person who attempts to try this (all can be found on forum, wiki etc):

    - edit /etc/tclientUK.conf and change the 127: line to the emulator ip and port 8000 ( 127::210.48.107.133:8000::: ) or setup emuproxy
    - edit /etc/postcodezones and add "02112 Pacific/Auckland" (Tab between number and Pacific)
    - run the commands in telnet:
    dbsetx /Setup TimeZone 0
    dbsetx /Setup DaylightSavingsPolicy 0
    - copy the ukchan-2.5.5.o module (earlier in this thread) to /hack/ and telnet:
    rw
    cd /lib/modules
    mv ukchan-2.5.5.o ukchan-2.5.5.o.backup
    cp /hack/ukchan-2.5.5_nz-nicam.o /lib/modules/ukchan-2.5.5.o
    ro

    More or less follow the guided setup instructions for US tivo, with a couple of changes
    - Change the phone dialing options and set the prefix to ",#401" (without the quotes) to use the Turbonet card
    - Use postcode 02112 for FTA (or FTA and sky)
    - I had to select "aerial and satellite", because "aerial and cable" reported there were no service providers

    Again thanks to everyone involved
