Setanta

mine kicked in 30 seconds into round 2:-( at least i got to see most of it..

 

stinkkkkkkkkkkkk you should of just stayed up and watched it

 

Yes they did **** up.

Luckily for me I stayed up to watch it anyway but I have 3 versions of Pavlik/Hopkins on Sky+.

For some reason one ended and another started in round 2 :huh

 

I almost done the same thing. Went to the TV guide to record it, then luckily scrolled across to find out when the show ended and saw that it was in fact broke into 3 segments, so recorded all three.

In addition those breaks between the three segments didn't mean ****, and were not natural breaks. I had to back up and move on to the next recorded segment when the Luevano-Dib fight was still going on, same thing happening just after the start of the Hopkins-Pavlik fight.

 

Buncey or that other dude did say something about "I hope people haven't sky plus'd this..."

Pisstake.

 

could of been the fact the tv schedule was fuked up it had the fight listed as pavlik vs hopkins 3am - 4:15am , pavlik vs hopkins 4:15am - 4:45am, pavlik vs hopkins 4:45 - 7:00am thats how it was listed on my EPG

 

I hate it when they do this because you can't copy the fight to disk or tape without making cuts. I watched it live but why couldn't they had the Sky Plus programme from 3:00am to 6:00am instead of 3:00am to 4:15am, then 4:15am to 4:45am and finally 4:45 till 7:00am. The same happens with Sky when there American live coverage lasts longer than the Sky Plus programme which makes you have to tape the programme afterwards just incase.

 

I never made a SKY Plus joke.
They cut the 4th round from the repeat?
Had I known there were potential problems I would have mentioned it on the show.
I will be looking for some answers on Monday morning.
Trust me on this one.

Adios

 

You can, if you set up a manual recording on Sky+.

I did that when I noticed the broadcast was split into 3 shows... Setanta 1, 3:00am - 7:00am. :good

 

I know its the Luddite option but just record from 3am to 7am manually.

 

I've said it before but an hour just isn't long enough to repeat a big fight when it goes 12 rounds. It needs to be 90 minutes, at least for the first week or so to let people capture some of the atmosphere and build up.

 

Yeah, they ****ed up. God knows why they did it, and God knows why they showed the undercard in 4:3 format. Good coverage but Setanta slipped back a rngon the ladder in my opinion.

 

It might seem like a silly thing but what really annoyed me was the box in the top right saying "subscribe". If I have paid to subscribe I shouldn't get a big box in the way telling me to subscribe.

Surely anyone watching the Hopkins fight must have subscribed anyway so why on Earth was the box there during the fight?!

 

On Setanta broadband they have it on the archive service, but in three separate chunks. I clicked on the wrong one and went straight to the 2nd round of the main event instead of the start of the show.

Why can't they just get things right?
