is VM TV down

[CableGuy101]

Phone up and ask them whats going on?

I phoned up and told them my starview box wasnt getting any of the sub channels anymore, and dont they know its coming up to xmas and i have a lot of viewing to do over the holday season............the fone just went dead on me, they can be so rude at call centres.

If 1800 is still running the stream can be decoded.

I know this to be true because I was watching SS1 for months with a dual stream, first on a SV4 and then an itgate.

1800 has now been removed and so no SS1 etc.

Only just signed up, but I use a Eurovox and it wasn't working this morning (in Kirklees area, couldn't receive any channels). Reading what you guys have said it looks like N3 is being rolled out to my area. I think subbed boxes were working fine though.

I'm at work at the moment, but as far I know my Eurovox is still receiving no channels. I intend to do a rescan when I get home so hopefully that will fix it.

On the Sky Sports 1 issue, I haven't received a letter or a new card yet (I have a subbed box too) so I would think it will remain in the stream for a little while yet. Whether my eurovox will work with both streams active is another matter! I guess I'll found out tonight.

it wont decode n3 fact free tv days are over im in the midlands all good but come febuary our boxes will be the same doorstops

If two streams are running and one is 1800 it can be decoded.

Whether the firmware you're running is capable is another matter.

Anyone who says otherwise doesn't know what they're talking about and is more than likely the kind of thick person who thinks that writing 'fact' after something on the internet makes it true.

I'll leave you all to it. Bye bye.

Dewsbury NO AUDIO/VIDEO but 89% signal! MAXV5000PVR

I appear to have lost all channels overnight (Kirklees) and even deep scan not retrieved anything - signal strength and quality are high so I guess the glory days are over or is this just a test?
I have lost all the FTA channels too although some programme infos appear to come through but no video or even radio?

If this is the N3 end what box do I get next ?
(Was using MaxV5000PVR)

Can anyone enlighten ?
THANX IN ADVANCE

Performed a DEEP SCAN and everything back

I had lost all channels in Dewsbury area and UPDATED channels but no joy.
Performed a DEEP SCAN and everything back although I will have to sort my favourites out again but hey ho

Just an update on my earlier post, I've now rescanned my eurovox (with a deep scan) and all the channels are back on, including sky sports 1.

Like jfish, I've not had a letter about a new card for my subbed box, so I'd hope the N1 stream carries on for a bit longer here. I'm expecting the letter soon though, this is the beginning of the end!
