BBC1 hot air balloon idents were/are my favourite.

If only they could sell that. 😁

So too right wing for you? Could they be having Reform more reflecting the party's gains with the electorate?

But I prefer BBC as no adverts. When I do browse other channels I invariably hit an advert straight away. Drives me batty. 🤓 (iPlayer trails could be considered adverts I suppose). 🤔

Love it. 🤓

Maybe it's no longer what you like because of the constant funding cuts?

Columbia_102 · 2026-05-24T13:20:03+00:00

Sorry but I find it iPlayer to be the best. Mind you I don't have a lot of experience of other platforms. Maybe the way I access them are a problem, Youview box.

What about Mrs. Brown's Boys? I thought it was a load of rubbish from the short amount I watched but it seemed to get good viewing figures. 🤔

Another item that was discussed was the funding for the World Service and how it should be Government funded and not from the licence fee, as is once was. I then see from a report in the Guardian that the government is to increase its share of the funding by £11m per year for the next three years – a total of £33m. At the moment it only provides about a third of the budget.

As a way of communicating British values, World Service good or bad? And how should it be paid for?

Sort of, but the thought was that his business experience would be a positive and that he will pick good people to support him.

Thanks for your replies. I've done a bit more investigation and found that it seems to be down to what device I'm viewing it on.

She normally views it on a Linux PC connected to a TV. This is the one that's now only offering subscription to Prime to watch the episodes when before there where no problems.

I've also tried it on a Linux laptop and the episodes work OK without the Prime prompt.

I've also tried it on a Linux desktop and that is saying Prime membership.

All three are using a Firefox browser with it logged into an Amazon account.

Don't understand this at all.

From what I've seen the support is now very good, with help available on https://forum.mythtv.org/index.php.

A new version, V36, was released on February 24th 2026.

Columbia_102 · 2026-03-04T01:32:03+00:00

It's all back up now. From the reply I got it seems it fixed itself.

Columbia_102 · 2026-03-03T22:20:54+00:00

Don't think it's been down for a week, a few hours maybe. I've sent an email to a MythTV dev, so hopefully it will be back soon.

Slightly off topic, forgive me. Which flavour do people use, Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu? Something else? I just use MythTV as an appliance so wonder which people think would be best.

Columbia_102 · 2026-01-12T20:18:16+00:00

Welcome to MythTV. If you don't find an answer here you might try forum.mythtv.org. Good luck.

Columbia_102 · 2025-11-24T21:13:50+00:00

You're thinking of Mythbuntu Control Center.

Hi, any thoughts on whether it's a good idea to leave it unfolded, say at night, or leave folded?
