Just wondering if any other member has noticed the amount of scanning the suppliers
are doing, getting a little teed off with it today, my system has been scanned 9 times that I noticed
so maybe more, happened 4 times during Moto GP sprint alone, and very hard to ignore as it is
hopping around the screen. I do not even have the remotest idea of how to share, and, certainly
I would not do so, had I the know how. My apologies if I should have started a new thread for this
Yes, it has become very excessive and very annoying.

This scanning with my box id showing in multiple colours made me think that they had blocked me
and turned off my access as the 28.2E HD Sport channels don't work any more, only the SD ones.

Also, the AFN suite on 9E are not showing either on my Viark Sat 4k. What is shocking me is that
the TM5402 M4 that has not had an udpate for over a year is still showing AFN on 9E.

Cmon Viark, get it together please...🙏

NO the box id showing in multiple colours or moving on-screen is simply to prevent IPTV Re-streaming so they said anyhow
probably much like the BEin Feeds that show up at times on 3E also with the rolling logo watermark .

i have not had my GT Media box on for several Weeks and my UK HD is off on that also so for everyone's its down on the Server Side most definitely and possibly indefinitely on MARS AND EVEN Forever too ,
MY Viark Sat 4K also down UK HD just like everyone else ...

it remains to be seen if 28E HD ever does make a return it's probably unlikely at this point in time
Even many of the UK SD's are even also down too you will notice like TNT and Eurosport among quite a few others that have been working .

AFN is Fully down on both my GT Media and Viark Sat 4K also .
but on my GT Media AFN Keys still AU which is something i guess ,
not great or positive news that Forever and MARS Are indeed steadily loosing lots of channels however .....:(

Hey @barney115, thanks for clarifying the moving multicoloured box id mystery.

We only use our boxes for watching the movies, sports and Nat Geo and Discovery stuff and we
don't watch 24/7 so would hope we never fall foul of the streaming check process.

Regarding the UK HD channels going dark: this has happened twice before in the past three and a half years.
Each time, the channels eventually came back, so we can only hope that the clever people somewhere find
a way of restoring 28.2E.

Regarding AFN, I am completely baffled as to how the Viarks that have updates every 6 months or so can be
dark on AFN and the not so reliable TM 5402 HD manages to clear it?

Anyway, it at least allowed me to watch some NFL in english comms, whilst 28.2E was dark last night.

Well they should at least put the SD version of Eurosport and Nat Geo on because these channels work on E2 receivers.
They're just lazy

Yes don't renew next time is best for anyone unhappy like yourself.
Those channels are available elsewhere with eng comms as you know? So either you are too lazy to switch sats or just restricted to single sat reception? Forever is set up for multisat/multi provider reception so always something to view.
