I remember reading here that someone had a converter box or something that could get dave tv here in the states. Could someone tell me how to get it? I don't want to miss it as I can't get PBS here.
is there even any plans to air it in the states (including pbs and bbc america??). i was going to ask this myself. there is something you can do... expatshield.com. apparently it's for British citizens who are outside the UK who want to view online content (like dave tv's website) but can't because of the British laws. you click a box saying you are a British citizen and boom, content is yours.
There is also an app you can download called Tunnelbear as a backup plan which makes your ip address look like it is either US or UK anywhere in the world.. It gives you a certain amount of free viewing time per month before you have to pay for it, but they sometimes give you free gigs if you tweet about them.
Does anyone know if you can watch the eps on Dave's site after it airs on tv? I probably won't be sitting around the computer when that happens.
I tweeted Doug: @DougRDNaylor What are the chances Dave could upload #RDX episodes to iTunes as they air so US fans can buy/watch them same time as the UK?
Doug's response: @facecake726 I'm trying to arrange something like this in U.S. but with U.S. DTOs.
After I looked up what the smeg DTO's are (apparently it stands for Data Transfer Object. According to Wikipedia "DTOs are often used in conjunction with data access objects to retrieve data from a database") it looks like something should be arranged for fans outside the UK in due course--hopefully :)
Much better than a "No, we're not doing that" isn't it? :D
