Err I'm not sure really just looking for some insight into the cable world. I guess off the top of my head - does the cable box cover the free-to-air digital channels as well such as SF1/2, Eurosport, TSR1/2 etc. I guess so as it would be pretty weird having two set-top-boxes.

I assume also that the cable channels can switch some channels to English using the zweicanal thingy? I tried in the MediaMarkt store using the SwissCom Bluewin but on Eurosport it couldn't - whereas on my current analogue I can switch Eurosport to English. Weird. I guess no-one can tell me exactly what 'cable' channels have this - so its going to be pay and see.
