hi mr kings,,,

its a temporary glitch caused by sv servers clearing thier books of the november 2009 buyers of boxes.
in due course everything will be back to normal once the server has had chance to catch up with all the mayhem.

time frame= unknown.

regards

ps answered elsewhere by another forum user ( thanks for that, just relaying info.)

Yes there are some of the Hd channels down at the moment, not just movies but a couple of others to, but don't worry I am sure they will be back soon!

Well there is no definite answer to this in my opinion in regards to the 12 months limit on the box.

if you have bought the box then stick with it and you will find out after 12 months either way

On the sat side there is no Limits!!! Only the Sky is the Limit.

I think this is a coincidence, Updating for me made no difference to what channels I received. It's all down to the server.

Just had a check several HD channels are still down, what is strange is if I leave it on one of these channels i.e ITV 1 HD & Premiere HD they will open for a few seconds and then freeze and go off!
