[Hampshire] iplayer and BBC licence fees (again)
Hello folks I know this was discussed last year, but a non-TV-owning client has just asked me whether he needs a BBC licence to use iPlayer, and I was surprised to find this page at http://www.bbc.co.uk/info/channels/television/iplayer.shtml which implies that he does. It says "The TV programmes are free for UK licence fee payers, at high quality and with no advertising." On the other hand, the iplayer terms and conditions at http://iplayerhelp.external.bbc.co.uk/help/about_iplayer/termscon make no mention of the BBC licence fee. It's all rather confusing really. Maybe the government should admit the the licence fee is really a tax that they expect everyone to pay, and give up the charade about the BBC being independent. cheers Chris -- Chris Dennis cgden...@btinternet.com Fordingbridge, Hampshire, UK -- Please post to: Hampshire@mailman.lug.org.uk Web Interface: https://mailman.lug.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/hampshire LUG URL: http://www.hantslug.org.uk --

You need a TV License to watch TV programmes as they're being broadcast over the air - this means that you DON'T need one to watch iPlayer, but you DO need one to watch the "Live Streaming" bit of iPlayer (because it's simulcast). Same with any other method of simulcasting. IANAL/etc. and the TV License fee people don't tend to listen to reason (or the law, or their own guidelines, etc.) so if he's at all worried, I'd just stump up the fee.

Same here - I don't have a TV since I moved house about 18 months ago. I have no intention of getting a TV, either. I regularly get threatening letters from the TV Licensing people, which get immediately binned :) I'm yet to have a visit from the "enforcement division" - which is a shame because I know exactly what I'm going to say to them if they ever turn up ;) > IMHO you should *NOT* stump up a fee just because some private company > threatens you for no good reason.Hell 139.50 will buy a nice new > linux PC! No, I agree - not something I'd do :) However, it would mean that the OP wouldn't need to worry about what he was watching on iPlayer. I also suspect that depending on how you phrase "I watch iPlayer" to an enforcement officer could open you up to prosecution.

[Hampshire] Couple of questions about Lenny...
Hi All. I don't have a Lenny machine running at the moment - could someone check a couple of things for me, please? 1. Sound. I'm assuming Lenny uses ALSA, and alsamixer is the way to control stuff. Is that right? I'm trying to get a microphone turned on (and I don't yet have access to the box). 2. Kernel config Does Lenny leave the .config for the current kernel somewhere handy? Thanks!

Yes, tho' you have to install alsamixer and alsamixergui. You can alos use KMix etc. if you prefer. You then have to find out how to work/read them!! There doesn't seem to be a manual.

My previous experience is that if you open the and read the letters, contact the TV licensing people and explain that you either a) don't have a TV or b) have a TV but don't watch live TV (e.g. only watch DVD's or Videos and it isn't connected to a TV aerial) Then they accept it and leave you alone. No more wasted trees on threatening letters and no investigation officers coming to your door. Before we were married my wife had a TV video combo but didn't have an aerial and just watched Videos from the Library / Purchases. She contacted the TV licensing people and told them, no more letters or contact. Simple as that. -- Please post to: Hampshire@mailman.lug.org.uk Web Interface: https://mailman.lug.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/hampshire LUG URL: http://www.hantslug.org.uk --

They don't seem so accepting of the "We've got a licence" explanation, though. I used to live in a flat with my other half. The TV licence was in her name. I bought a STB, and filled in the appropriate documentation - cue several threatening letters and phone calls. Even though they knew we were in a flat, they wouldn't accept that the flat hadn't been sub-divided into sub-flats, and thus need a licence each :-( Then we moved. A few weeks later, one of their blokes is on the doorstep insisting we were watching TV illegally, as we didn't have a licence. "Yes we do", was my simple reply. After a few minutes of back-and-forth, he rang his office - who confirmed that we did indeed have a licence... I wonder how many people with a less bellicose attitude than mine get brow-beaten into paying for a licence they don't need?

Because the author is a Windows programmer who doesn't know any better. Seriously without more context it's difficult to know what they are talking about but I suspect that it's the old myth that sequentially polling interfaces is "faster" than blocking waiting for each in turn. This might be true for Windows but Unix has had the select and/or poll system calls that allow you to monitor any number of blocking interfaces in parallel for over three decades. -- Bob Dunlop -- Please post to: Hampshire@mailman.lug.org.uk Web Interface: https://mailman.lug.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/hampshire LUG URL: http://www.hantslug.org.uk --
