I use TVxb as well and I too have problems with some channels. Seems to work well enough for my needs though.

Sub, what's the list of cities with Spanish users? Think Madrid and Barcelona will be most, but what about other places?

P.D. is known that most people from North America think Spain is under Mexico... Big Grin But I'm sure that all GB-PVR users from North America knows where are Spanish, aren't you? Wink

The people who can't find other countries on the globe, are the same ones who don't know where their neighbouring state/province is...

I think it would be wrong to say MOST people from North America... At least I would speak on behalf of Western Canadians...

I would hope that people who are smart enough to build a GBPVR know basic geography. I used to love watching Jay Leno's Jaywalking. One question in a jaywalking episode was "What is the capital of Mexico?" Of course, he only showed the people that couldn't answer. It was very funny though.

I'm not sure if there is more than 10, but it's listing:
1. Madrid
2. Cataluna
3. Andalucia
4. Comunidad Valenciana
5. Aragon
6. Castilla-La Mancha
7. Galicia
8. Canarias
9. Pais Vasco
10. Castilla y Leon

My favorite was from the Newlywed game where the bonus question was to name the capital of the state your husband was born in.
The new bride answered, That's easy he was born in New York so it's New York City.
The husband came back and said: That's easy I was born in New York, so it's New York City. Since their answers matched so they won the grand prize.
Bob Ewbanks the emcee says something like: You guys win and everybody is happy for you except for the people in Albany. (The capital of New York)

Also an easy one to catch people in the States is to ask
Do you pronounce the capital of Kentucky:

Lewieville or Loweville.

Wait for their answer and then say

It's Frankfort.

Come on now, there has to be "ignorant" people in other countries as well.

Who really thinks Spain is south of Mexico or that Canada is really a country?

Sorry, I meant some (not MOST)... :o
But, another question is (apart geography)... what is the most generalized oppinion of other countries from another ones?

that is... in your country, for example: what is the general think about Spain?
