Chris,
Re licencing issues, the ERA has recently announced that changes to the terms of the licence (which come into effect on 1st April 2005) will encompass material that is digitised and stored on a central server (for registered users and password protected). There are still restrictions in accessing this material off campus, which ERA say they are looking to cover towards the end of the year.
For more detail, I suggest http://www.era.org.uk/New_Regulations.html , or contacting [log in to unmask]

Subject: Licensing for TV programmes
Hi,
Could anyone please advise me whether it would be possible to record TV
programmes through a TV tuner card on a PC and then make them accessible to
staff on a central server? What are the licensing implications of this?
Thanks
Chris
