[17:02] hi JohnLea [17:02] ! === Ronnie2 is now known as Ronnie [17:51] what are the essentiel features on a TV ? [17:54] AlanBell, mhall119 ? [17:59] hi daker [17:59] the #ubuntu-tv channel is probably a better place for that question [18:00] for me, watching TV is an essential feature of a TV [18:00] change channels and adjust volume [18:05] ok thanks AlanBell [18:12] AlanBell: I wonder if channels are really an essential feature of a TV… [18:12] bwinton_: s/channels/feeds/ [18:13] a channel is just a time-based feed of media [18:13] mhall119: Even then. I might buy s/feeds/shows/ [18:13] bwinton_: a feed is an updating list of shows [18:13] It seems to me that the time-based part of TV is going away. Slowly, ironically. :) [18:13] yes, i tis [18:14] mhall119: Okay, I'ld buy that definition.

[19:57] I am also a IRC ignorant :-) [20:10] not sure svwilliams, it isn't a default of my client :) [20:28] it doesn't appear to be default in mine ... but I figured it could be
