Did anyone else's TV just turn off?

[mashman]

Was just watching Castle and just as the drone pilot said he had lost control of the drone, the TV turned itself off. Me und Mrs M just stared at each other for a bit, but it was On Demand at the time so we rewound it. This time instead of the TV turning itself off, it changed channel source. We did this 4 or 5 times and eventually skipped that little bit, but 2 or 3 seconds after that it does the same thing. I recorded Castle and have just played it back with the same results.

Anyone know what the pilot said?

Yep.



Put your tin foil hat on and buckle up.

[Skiwi]

Go next door and ask your neighbour to stop fucking around with his remote extender....

[Laava]

Is it a Philips?

Yippie-ki-ay motherfucker.

I don't believe you.

The thought occurred to me... too precise for them though :shifty:


Is it a Philips?

Nope, it'sa Mine. (spamdung).


Yippie-ki-ay motherfucker.

I don't believe you either.

[Big Dave]

I don't believe you.

Irony-o-meter off the scale.

[Drew]

This ought to be good. Katman, whatchoo know about the government not wanting us to understand the plot of dramatic TV shows?

[Grumph]

Irony-o-meter off the scale.

Very true....lol.

Anyone want to start a poll as to whether it was the GCSB or a KB member who's finally discovered the address ?

[Berries]

I don't believe you either.
Yeah you got me. What actually happened is her phone rang which is a well used plot device in this programme when they can't not work out how to segue in to the next scene.

Did anybody else notice that on the side of the drone it had the MEGAUPLOAD logo?

[nzspokes]

First world problems.....

[unstuck]

Cant believe there are people around who watch that kind of shit. TV should be used to view 3 things ...

1. Cemetery circuit.

2. NZ rally championship.

3. Country calendar.

[SMOKEU]

It's probably the Jews.

Dunno what he said but next time activate the anti-GCSB mode circuit prior to watching the programme.

[wysper]

What is this TV you speak of?

[BoristheBiter]

Are you on UHF or satellite?

[ellipsis]

...yeah...ours just started fucking about...random channel numbers popping up, screen went blank last night for no apparent reason...our son who knows his shit with this stuff is a bit flummoxed by it...less TV suits me...he was mumbling about our dish, and not being able to do the uhf thing in our area?...

[mashman]

No chance... they'll not see me fappin if I do.

Satellite. Just watched it again and it's still doing it. Must be sommink fuckin up the signal.

Must be something with the satellite then My folks was playing up as well last night.
UHF has issues with cellphone/UHF frequency/cop radios so I wonder if it is something like that.

Or it could be dem aliens, sneaky little fuckers dem aliens

Weez got sky so unsure about the UHF issues. I recorded it onto the sky box and it must be some signal that the programme puts out as it still happens when I watch it back. Tres weird.,, but will hit tvunzud on demand tonight to find out whit the pilot said.

Damn good point, little bastards...

So were you watching a sky channel or a freeview one?

If it was sky then I think that's your answer.

[Drew]

On demand that shit from the lappy. Keep ot close to the tv and see if when that bit plays, it upsets the telle again.

Just for the sheer fuck of it.

[avgas]

Is it hooked up to the wifi?

If so some hoodwink just needs to download the samsung remote and they can control it over your wifi (did this with neighbours sony)

[avgas]

either that or stop sitting on the remote.......

[Skiwi]

Weez got sky ...

Ah! That wee gem of information would have been helpful earlier, yes, ours was doing the same.

Can I borrow some of your tinfoil? My hat is obviously not thick enough....:weird:

Nope, was on the TV through the sky box. I have the programme recorded and it does the same thing at the same point.

:rofl: nah, t'ain't the neighbours, they know better than to open that cannoworms... I hope.

It's the first time that's happened at oor place.

S'ok, your skull seems to be compensating for the lack of tinfoil thickness.

[Akzle]

get that shit out of the house and be glad you havent been microchipped yet. Switching shit off via remote signal isnt impossible.
Im waiting for the anonymous takeover hack lulz.

I hardly watch the thing... just the odd show and for movies. I guess a universal remote, where you pop in the code and send oot the signal plugged into haarp or that satellite you launched last week should do the trick.
