Channels

Opened on #Server

@GServerNews

A quick check this earlier and not many were opening but I'll have a look in an hour.

Announcement a bit premature as they aren’t all open yet and when you take into account all the double channels on the list it’s about 55 channels still a good result though

Are 55 opening for you or just turning red?

Just turned colour, from what i can see, 3 or 4 open.

What i hear is 2 weeks.

Do we think this will be solely locked to viarks or does it have the capability to be extended to enigma2.

Probably locked to Viark and other suitable receivers. Last time the server info was hacked they took sky uk down

Yeah mate I remember, but I dare say if it happened once it may happen again

Vulnerability was only on one of the servers so they probably have it covered now but nothings impossible!

What's SP1?

 

[smithysmudge]

What's SP1?

Just a server upgrade to open premium channels
SP2 adds Iptv

If the channels that are due to clear finally clear then I would say absolutely, but as you know things can go pear shaped pretty quickly in this game.

 

[Kurdt Kobain]

I've taken the plunge and upgraded to SP2 and Sky DE is working fine once again.

As expected, much of Sky UK has also gone yellow but remains scrambled (hopefully only for now). Exceptions found so far have been Channel 4 HD $ and three versions of STV HD $ - now all opening.

Last time, it was mostly HD only on 28.2e via this server. I don't know whether my SD channels still not being illuminated is a sign but I'm more than aware things could easily change, and I'd still be happy enough should it be the case again.

Assuming all the 28.2e ones currently lit up are going to work then there'll only be a few HD channels from the regular Sky UK tiers missing, and they may be added shortly.

4 days after renewing my sat 4k with the SP2 code, im still having the same issues;

Sky DE channels working for about 5 secs before scrambling again, channel list not highlighted yellow either
Sky UK channels not highlighted and not working whatsoever
At a loss now as to what to do about it
IPTV working fine though

 

[smithysmudge]

Are you 100% sure you are on the latest firmware for your box, try flashing the newest firmware again if unsure

Those tell me the SP2 code has not been applied correctly. Or firmware is not the latest as smithysmudge says

Check on the Information page

Check on the Information page

The software says 1.14, I uploaded this to the box the day it was released on here. Expiration date still says July 2025 but on the recharge forever site, it says July 2026

I will reupload the latest firmware to see if that makes a difference

Also, it was the vendor who uploaded the code to my box, I went to do it myself but it had already been done by them

 

[The Guvnor]

Doesn’t seem like it’s applied to me.

DE opens for everyone with a 4K briefly and then goes off.

Something has gone wrong speak to the vendor your box should state july 2026
