Default on demand stuck on Loading....

Hi
Any help with this problem. I have a Samsung smt 2100c NTL box that works fine all channels and on demand, other than recently when I press on Demand it just says 'just a moment... and sticks there. It's worked fine before.

Bern

You shouldn't be using a box with talk back connected.

If you do they could trace you...

Thanks for the replies guys!
I did not know that I had talk back connected, is what your saying that nobody can use a chipped box with the on demand working?
I was told by the guy I had bought it from he had put a switch inside the box to enable the on demand.
As I have said 'it worked fine upto last friday and started this problem but all other channels are still working fine!

It sounds like (no doubt I will be corrected) that you have been found out esp if you've been using On Demand.

I think (not sure) that they can blacklist your box mac address which stops the channels from working.

If this is the case then I'd personally disconnect the box and make sure it's not inside your property.

If your CC have been monitoring your line you might get a knock at the door (worse case scenrio)

If I was you i'd make sure any chipped boxes u have are given to a friend/relative that can put them in their loft or something for a couple of weeks.

I dont mind if I get corrected but this is my opinon and if it was me it's what I would do.

The switch is there to turn talkback on or off, you must of had it switched on to get on demand, im suprised your box is still working.
