My pinnacle card was so sweet, but when I switched to Win XP, it never worked.
That was years ago, and it sounds liek they are still buggy!
OMG, that is crazy that folks still can't make a nice quality video capture/TV tunner card that isn't buggy as heck.

because the US cant control it.. the US is a horrid country when freedom of speech - esp the media.. we sue happy companies will never let it happen..


However you can recieve it if you have a CBand Dish, and receiver and point to the right satellite.. It airs on BBC World Service.. which you can get in Canada, Mexico and else where in South America.

 

[freegeeks]

the DIVX is ready - how do I make a torrent or where can I upload it to ????

I fail to see how airing a show about cars can have anything to do with freedom of speech or corporate lawsuits.

If anything (and partially answering my own rhetorical question), the issue is most likely because of different car markets, and the difficulty of a show about EDM car models getting any ad revenue in the USDM.

I mean, c'mon... cause otherwise you're saying that a country with more public surveilance cameras than people is freer than the US... :roll:

edit: someone host this file please

I'd be surprised, but I won't hold it from the realm of possibility EDIT - I shouldn't say that, I don't know exactly what cars they have and haven't clocked... There's plenty of faster track cars out there I'd think, but it all depends on which ones Top Gear have tested So I guess I wouldn't be too surprised if the SLR makes it now that I think about it

 

[boyRacer]

i say its the carrera GT.

the SLR is a rolling contradiction... its the heaviest carbon fiber supercar... plus its ugly.

You'd be wrong, per the show. I tend to agree that the SLR is really weird looking, and I can't imagine buying a McLaren-branded supercar with an automatic, but the thing is as quick as a scalded cat.
