Can the Zgemma boxes pause/rewind/record etc from IPTV?  Also so they have a better EPG than the SmartIPTV app?

To Record alot of the IPTV providers require that you have an extra sub. Not sure about pause/rewind as haven't tried it.
EPG is great - just same as the likes of sly depending on the image and skin you have on the zgemma.

You'll not get anything cheaper than the GAA Solution - http://www.gaa.ie/my-gaa/administrators/club-website-solution unless you have a club member who can build one for you.
It costs €100 and then probably about €25 a year after that.

Another example of a team using it: http://www.ahoghillgaa.com/Pages/Default.aspx

It has a module which will automatically pull the fixtures/results through to the website (Providing your county is using the servasport for all competitions) so that part won't need updated.

Hoping for a bit of help as my electrician is away on holidays and I have to complete a sheet for the load of a new build. So fingers crossed GAABoard can help. 

Have to give general load details for the following, (Kw)

Lighting -(Normal LED bulbs throughout the house)
Unrestricted heating - Not even sure what this is?   
Cooking - 2 ovens and one hob and fan.
water heating - Oil Boiler and immersion
MHRV -

If anyone could give a rough idea of what the KW might be for the above it would be very much appreciated. Kinda left this late to be doing and don't want to wait until the electrician is back again as he's away for 2 weeks.

I don't know much about it but we recently got connected and connection card showed:
Lighting: 4.2KW
Cooking: 5.6KW
Water Heating: 3.0 KW
Motors: 2.6KW

Maximum Import Capacity: 18KVA

connect to box, and to your wifi

Buy this;

watch the help video provided, with the details provided,

conect box to your wifi, sky dish, hey presto.Full sky.

i dont have one but i have heard these work perfect, all sky channels for £16 per year!

General i went with your advice and got the openbox and i am up and running. Never have had sky before and after seeing what was on offer i am glad i never give in to subscribing to it.
Its good to have the sports and the kids shows and the wife wanted sky Alantic to watch GOT.
How are you getting on with this? Will probably go this route as I can't get RTE at my house yet a house 30m away can get it.
Is the unscrambling service reliable enough? I've been told that some of the cheaper options can be unreliable as they would load people onto the server not capable of the demands.
Will probably go for the box Boycey mentioned.

General quotes I got back for screeds:
Standard Screed: £10 - £11 m2
Liquid Screed: £13.50 - £15 m2

With liquid screed prob need to make sure sub floors are level as you could get hit with extra cost - in part of one room - it ended up 80mm deep - so extra charge of £500 for additional material - I think it was £200 per cubic metre. It was 17 weeks before I was able to start tiling on it - got it tested at the deepest point.

Found tilers are cagey/cautious with liquid screed. Heard some horror stories of tiles lifting after 7/8 months.

The floors need sealed with an acrylic sealant rather than the standard ones. I used the pink Larsen stuff and have had no issues at all either on tiled floors or wooden floors stuck down with Gutoid (or equivalent adhesive).
Builders in general struggle with something that's different than what they know and rather than show their ignorance plough on regardless hence the horror stories.

I bought my liquid screed off RTU in Newtownabbey and they'd informed me of all this stuff at the time.

I got my screed from them as well though it was through a floor screed company. RTU said to put down 2 coats of acrylic primer first. Got it tested by them and the pass mark was below 0.5 and it was 0.4 so a pass but the guy still said it might be best left another week with the heat on.

Paul Hill perchance?

What type of site you after? eCommerce just just display your services.
SEO can be expensive but the basic structure of your site needs to be right.
PPC - don't have much experience - probably always worth a try yourself initially - bid small amounts and see what returns it brings.
A Google on the subject should give you an overview of th basics to try.

picked up a Panasonic VIERA TX-42AS500B from Sainsburys for £370 the other day and there's a few functions I'm not sure about it, how can I watch ipad content from it, BT sport in mind?

Also there's some sort of server I can set up on a private LAN to view films etc, etc. anyone ever done that?


Have used my smart Panasonic TV to view content from a Network Attached Hard Drive - Your probably after something like this: http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00BP5RJ76/ref=pd_lpo_sbs_dp_ss_1?pf_rd_p=479289247&pf_rd_s=lpo-top-stripe&pf_rd_t=201&pf_rd_i=B003XFUXQK&pf_rd_m=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE&pf_rd_r=06RTAKEM1A6J6SWCWWTK

I use it to automatically back up computer and also download movies to it - then the TV can connect to it and view the content be it videos/music/photos.

I am looking for a reliable web hosting service, anyone point me in the right direction ?

It is to host a CMS website, averaging ~500 visitors daily. I have previously used ipage and justhost but I have not been impressed with the speed of the website.

Any advice or tips much appreciated.

I would probably recommend Blacknight.
Have a couple of hosting packages with them and am very happy.

There basic package: http://www.blacknight.com/minimus-hosting.html

You can host up to 30 websites on that one package.  €4.95 a month
