Sky box office events

[Rien1988]

Does anyone know if we get boxing events that's on sky box office I remember i had a starview box a while back and the channel was called tv1700 it came on when there was an event on ?

The old starviews used firmware that was able to decrypt the keys needed to display an encrypted channel. But since nagra 3, starview boxes use CS, and judging from the volume of posts about starview on the forum, it seems a bit hit and miss. Whether you get PPV is down to whoever runs the server, and how generous they're feeling.

Ii haven't been into cable in a while, so feel free to correct any misinformation.

Their usually on the Sky events channel in the sports section, they show boxing n WWE wrestling, but that channel hasn't been working since the KV boxes went down, since thev've come back the Sky Events channel is still not back yet, have patience it may be back in the future. There is also the PrimeTime channel which is working that showed the last Amir Khan fight

the primetime channel did not work and did not show the Amir Khan fight

@slp that's because PrimeTime only started to work a week after the fight, but i was just saying PrimeTime channel showed the fight on Sky because talks with Sky Box Office broke down, so if the channel had been working on KV we would have seen it. It shows UFC n MMA aswell

and news just in Amir Khan vs Judah on 23rd July will be shown on PrimeTime once again, so we will be able to see it since the channels up n running
