  1. ive got a youview recorder it was a talk talk one but when i went to bt the software changed to bt (weird) you get all the freeview channels plus access to the bbc itv c4 c5 players and netflix and amazon prime 

    with mine you can record one program and watch another  pause live tv  rewind live tv in the planner if something that you have missed from last week is available to watch it will have a planner button

    all this and no money to be payed (unless amazon prime and netflix) 

    it all depends on what you watch we dont really do live tv anymore  dont like adverts dont like not being able to binge definately go for a youview recorder has loads more options compared to a freeview and it doesnt matter if its bt or talk talk it will still work just not there paid for parts which you will need to enter a contract and make sure it has a harddrive some do not

  2. yeah i found out that it was pain in the arse after i bought it it did come with traktor pro 3 which is a plus but its awkard out of date and full of bugs.  i thought id be able to use virtual dj's mapping to map it out myself however when attempting to map even the knobs they seem to be issues like mapping the channel gain on channel A when you go to the normal screenit starts moving a random channel gain its all very confusing. i know its possible maybe i need to talk to someone who knows how to program virtual dj using the commands in xml im thinking i may go to the mk2 this works with vdj natively 

    i cant fault the equipment quality just the traktor software is just shite

  5. Hi all I’ve been reading with interest on this just picked up a pair of cdxs and have a issue with a stiff platter and or grease that is old and dried. When putting through a computer using traktor and virtual dj the pitch fluctuates constantly here’s a link of what happens

     

    so it says that you take apart the motor and remove the old grease and then regrease I’ve got the motor out but have no idea how to split the motor any ideas ? For some reason I can’t reply back on the YouTube video and the link to a Google + doesn’t work

    thanks for any help in advance
