a crappy part of London
They're currently showing a looped demo of aerial shots of London taken from a helicopter, quality looks very nice.

Got my TV Drive installed this morning, only hooked up to my 19" Samsung screen till a bit later when I fire up the projector so can't really comment on the quality compared to US rips.
 
Yeah for the world cup, then after that all that's scheduled as far as I'm aware is a few old films. Was only announced fairly recently - exclusive deal with Telewest.
 
Recently got back from uni and have noticed both the BBC HD and ITV HD channels whilst flicking through cable, both unaccessible since we just have regular digital telewest cable and not a tvdrive box since the lounge tv isn't a hdtv. :p

I plan to get one for my room so may have to look into getting a hd box for room while family keep the regular one in the lounge. Then again, I rarely watch anything on tv, usually opting to just download it.
 
I have to say, the quailty from the ITV HD game looked better than the BBC HD game. I recorded the BBC game (so should be exactly how it looked live?) and compared them within minutes of each other shows far less artifacts from ITV.

depends how you are recording it

If you are on sky (hd) + then I guess it would be viewable in HD also

if you are using any other means as some point (I think) you have to use some scart (or other SD) connection
 
how is the tv drive attached? Componant or HDMI and it will be exactly as you watched it ( how much space did the recording take up out of interest?)
 
well then yes it will be completely as you viewed it - thats the one thing about this Trial BBC box, its great for viewing but even if you can record it will be going thru a scart cable, so it would be pointless , might as well just record from standard freeview
