    Hi!

    I have a Humax Foxsat HDR (Foxsat-HDR) but missed recording London 2012 Olympics channels….and would love to get hold of some of the “full” sessions in HD that others may have recorded…

    Anyone got them stored that I could downloadP site? Would love to have a few (Full Opening Ceremony with build-up, Super Saturday, some of the Velodrome..) on my hard-drive for posterity. Highlights DVD don’t really do justice.

    Any thoughts anyone?

    not too sure which thread to post a reply in…

    anyway, I think you’ll struggle with size:

    Olympic opening would be around 18GB so would take 50+ hours on my adsl to download and a few hundred hours to upload somewhere

    I have paralympic opening and closing both 20GB+ and both over ran so I doubt if anybody’s got a copy without bits missing

    2nd problem would be encryption

    3rd might be copyright

    I’m sure a few people will have copies of some of it, but uploading/downloading would be an olympic feat in itself. Ideally you’d pop round to somebody’s house with a portable usb drive and leave it there as that’d still take hours

    It’s a shame iplayer don’t keep it tucked away somewhere, it’s almost a national treasure, the opening ceremony simply beyond belief.

    National Treasure, If it was a choice of watching the Olympics or prison with hard labour, I would choose the latter. 😯
