ever thought about building one? automatically play loads of your fav tv material at preprogrammed schedules to zap through by actually or virtually changing channels via a remote? possible components could be a tv crt/flat a remote/w7 remote/mobile remote app/custom built stuff a os/software a mediaplayer/pi/pc/usb drives/sticks |

yes i had this same thought in the past, it would make a nice raspberry pi project, a small media centre, you could make your own adverts with a web cam as well |

:) innit? basically it would be nice to have an advanced shuffle effect for my shows, movies and music videos. the idea is to recreate something more similar to a real tv experience, as in having to watch something right now, because you cant pause or rewatch it. also to have some vague randomization effect as one wont have the whole schedule in mind. easiest way this could be achieved: by a schedule software. but even those wont make it possible to switch themed channels, which would be cream of the crop to have real depth and variety. |

i think this is the future for sure, youtube playlists are sort of the start of this sort of thing, it would be even better if you could broadcast it for your mates like radio |

digital tv kind of doesnt get into this yet though. at this state it just delivers access to binge watching seasons or movies on the push of a button, which folks did for a decade without a netflix account. ive come to the point where i want to save me the trouble of choosing one content over the other, but i dont want to give up my gusto completely. you mentioned youtubes playlists and recomendations, which are closest to this right now and represent the "modern age zapping". |

yes having a custom tv channel would be great idea i reckon, its a bit weird to me why all programs from the past havent been archived digitally completely for you to pick and choose, surely it would generate loads of money, suppose its down to legal issues like rights and stuff like that |

yarrpp, prolly gonna cost a fortune, tons of stuff does get aired on "low budget" channels. usually federally self produced shows or knight rider, a-team stuff. guessing music is most expensive and cartoons are just bigone. |

yes getting the licensing for scenes where they have popular music from the 80s in or what not, thank god for torrent, archive.org youtube and other stuff but even then not everything is covered, complete or in a quality that is desirable its annoying because you know future generations will have better access to this stuff cos of historical interest but i doubt they will be wanting to watch it as avidly as the likes of us |
