Yes probably due to the Bank Holiday and Murdock Staff recovering from a heavy weekend bender
but i am certain more Transponders will be Switching to iCAM in the coming dayz ..its not "IF" ..its WHEN !!!
so what you guys advise to do now to get sky stuff? wait it out and hope they crack card share again or switch to like of IPTV Never used it i have a vu duo box i know it dont run IPTV but i have old spiderbox i think does.
Will motorized not be blocked also for like of sky sports etc??
VuDuo run IPTV Very good , Just update your image to last OpenPLI 4 VersionOriginally Posted by krillin123
A motorized dish can receive a lot of different satellites, and channels, not everything revolves around Sky UK.
There was satellite television long before Sky UK even started.
Yes Mickha is right. Long before **** there was lots of great satellite tv and radio. From what I remember nearly all of it was free, Good quality films, sport and news with entertainment channels showing series long before it was shown in the UK. Those extra channels was a god send as most of us, as we only had four channels to pick from. Shame pure greed took over, now we have a massive choice at a premium. Long live the motorised dish and the hours of fun we still have looking for far away channels and feeds.
Yes agreed hundred percent. Good old D2mac which provided lot of entertainments in 80s and 90s. You could have the card programmed for a fiver. Lots of good old black and white comedy movies free on TV. Now everything is commercialised. You have to pay for it. Free sports were the entertainment for the poor's. Now billionaires want to be trillionaires . Such people are trapped in the egos.
It was case of less channels but better quality
Now there are 1000's of channels (especially UK & Italy ) with almost all of it rubbish
Im sure if other packages carried more English audio we would subscribe
Sky Germany, and Movistar +, on 19.2E, have plenty of channels, most with an English Audio option.
I tend to flick between the History, National Geographic, Discovery and A&E options, but there are plenty of Film, Sports, and General Entertainment channels available, and most of them without the annoying advertisemnents, which means that you can watch science fiction, comedy, or other series, without it being split into segments, for advertisements.

Agreed. Couldn't get SS1 on 28 so watched on 19e and turned the Spanish commentry down. And in HD!!
If you check the audio options, on a lot of the sports channels, on 19.2E, showing Premier League games, there's an option without commentary, but with the crowd noise, which I prefer.
Best option of the lot mate!!!
I have used my Vu+Duo2 for picture from YPbPr to TV for my 1080HD and audio from freeview pvr (need to pause for about 5 seconds to sync up easy done) from R5Live or TalkSport for commentary. Have done for years as I prefer radio commentary anyway. Far more entertaining!
Yes Funtime. I tried this today. Was watching Hull on 13 east from our Polish friends. Turn the sound down and then went online for 5 live commentary. But I found that the online commentary was about 6 seconds behind the picture. Will need a proper radio with delay function in order to achieve this. Most internet streams are great but can be unreliable. But I am sure by the start of next season, someone somewhere will have this sorted for the better and the cat and mouse game will start all over again.
With regard to the footy, any foreign audio is a million times better than listening to Robbie Savage droneing on
The only thing sky has that is hard to find elsewhere is Cricket.
Yes cricket is a lot harder to find. But those with internet access may be interested that some county websites have a fixed camera on the wicket showing live coverage from one end. This is for county championship games. Last season Nottingham and Glamorgan had live four day games with local radio commentary. Not the best coverage but a added extra to enjoy. International cricket is covered on lots of Asian channels but most of them are only available on IPTV. Once the county championship returns after the one day cup look out for live streaming of your local team if available. Hopefully there will be lots to watch. I enjoyed Glamorgan playing Gloucestershire at the end of last season, when the ball is hit into the outfield, the ball speeds away then the commentator lets you know if it has reached the boundary. Better to see something rather then just hear about it.
i would Expect to see at least 1 more Transponder being Shut Down AND switched over to iCAM encryption Tommorrow [ Tuesday ] morning .
be very surprised if its not Sky Sport 1,2 and 3 or all Movie Channels on 11934 v ..we shall wait and see !!!
... its REALLY not a matter of "IF" Its WHEN :banghead:
I like your style Barney.
Can't wait for it all to go dark myself just to see what the pay server s***bags do. Already see them sending out loads of 'limited time only offers' before the end comes. Wonder if they'll refund the suckers dumb enough to sign up once it's all over?
Sky is pantz. Not value for money by any stretch of anyone's imagination AND it never has been. Apart from sport there is nothing worth signing up for but to get the sport you have to sign up to the crap first.
Always end up looking for sport elsewhere anyway & will continue to do so in future as long as it can be found. How much longer for is anyone's guess but it does seem that other options on SAT have been slowly drying up under the "if you don't encrypt like us, you don't get the rights" campaign. Can't blame them for trying to protect their business but I think most here know the real reason CS became intolerable. Too many punters leaving to take up with cheap PS. Ruined it for those of us with the tech savvy to share privately.
....and yet I seem to remember being at a similar crossroads several times in the past and something has always turned up. So who knows what the future may hold for us.....................
True mate, when I first signed up for Sky in the old analogue days on 19E, I only paid for Sky Sports and nothing else, but now as you say you also have to pay for Entertainment as well to get Sports - PLUS, because Eurosport isn't part of Sky Sports, you need even MORE channels to pay for to get THAT too, but separately!!
CRAZY - plus mega rip off!!
