Completely different observation to the above posts and its to with afn. I mentioned in a post awhile back that when its active its shows all the afn radio stations in green but do not come on. So i thought as they are green again and now pv is au i would leave it on for over 5 mins and still nothing. When afn was down last week they were clearing with the au so suggests to me is that au is overridden and will not work when showing green.
If anyone knows better and can get them working hope my theory is proved wrong.

IPTV 1 Year FREE and 3 Years basic Forever FREE after loading PT 1.21 S/W
after the online Free Upgrade then its 2 full Years with UK and still 1 year IPTV
you'll be very happy with what you get after loading PT S/W And adding a Channel list .
Good luck @117 (y)
Thanks for this post as i was not sure about the IPTV side of things. I activated my receiver in late april of this year and it showed expiry date in top left hand corner in IPTV for end of October
so as you can see only six months. I have the new firmware 1.21 on so thought i would check if its changed to one year as i have the three year expiry date sub but unfortunatly the date has not changed so its only six months for me.

This is posted on another forum and maybe taken from here but unsure, but if it helps anyone missing their channels. Thanks hedges.

"Done a factory reset and then redone the updated by USB and then factory reset again and bingo all working.😁"

@117 ....told you that you would be impressed good testing my friend (y)
@kegnkiwi very solid advice interesting to see if doing that will resolve issues i see nothing to loose by doing so
but backing up the channel list first to USB first is always vital before starting that process : )
Even myself i done the rookie error not backing up my CH list took me quite a while to restore everything
Wont be making that mistake again : )

@117 m8 can you have a look see if you did get the 1 year SP2 [iptv] ??
i think Coastman got a bit hard done by with only 6 months curious if a brand new box gets the full year of it or not ?
cheers !

@barney115 from memory if i am not mistaken it will shorten the length of period you will have access to forever Both for sat & iptv so 6 months seems correct to me. If i am correct I am fairly sure it states same on the setup guide here on the forum. Hope this helps.
kind Regards,
Mike.

Team PT has developed a system to convert the default PT service to SKY VIP supported service, which means that you can have Sky and other top new channels with the default service in the box, so you do not need to buy extra codes
Sky VIP mode, there is a decrease of CS service time because that service is more expensive, so the expiration of the service will be different as compared to the default PT service.
Viark Sat will become 12 months CS time and 12 months IPTV.
Viark Sat4K will become 24 months CS time and 12 months IPTV

Hola, as screenshot, IPTV only 6 months but content with that. Certainly a nice menu list and my sometimes sat pixellated fringe U.K. beam reception here of some channels is covered by the Viark IPTV side.

Other points so far with the Viark Sat 4K:-

Remote seems good + handy 'F1' replaces the old 'SAT' button.
As many mention, super super quality video output.
Auto BISS working and manual input of keys tested and ok.
USB Wi-Fi connects fine.
Really useful 'Multi-TP Search' option for transponders.
3 year 'Forever'.......(not checked other options as yet)

Lot more things still to try.

In all a superb receiver at a decent cost. + 'Forever'.........enough said!

Congrats to all the posters in the 'Viark Sat 4K related threads........the reason I bought the receiver.

Thanks to all. (y)

This thing of subscrption not working after update Is worrying.

Then the failure to update which means you wont be updating to the latest servers will remove packages anyway going forward

That's it, can anyone help me with a registration link? It's the same as it is in the box menu with serial number and verification code *--

Could you post an example please?

FIRST make certain you have loaded latest PT V1.21 FROM POST ##4,393

Sonat guide tells you all you need to know => Sonat Activation Link
if there is errors read the Tutorial guide on that link again and again as it will be correct i too made some errors myself it is normal human error
and any small mistakes will give you that same error message .
once its done only takes a split sec to say "This SN is active"
once that is done you have succeeded ,
good luck !
