Looks like CS is being attacked by Sky

[marty]

If sky have come up with a way of stopping the hd channels to non sky receivers why don't they just go for gold and stop all hd instead of just 5??

Testing maybe?

^^^^^ I expect that "watch and wait" may apply. Regards.

Just be thankful they didnt do the same here that they did in Australia, their screens have been totally black for well over a year.

my guess would be because they are still testing the method over here, apply it to just a few channels and see if/how many subscribers with official boxes complain they are missing channels, if they did it to all channels and it did affect 'normal' subscribers they would be inundated

Ok then, why 5 if testing you only need 1.

5 very popular day time tv channels, after all you dont sit all day long on movies and sports channels, but some people have for example History HD on all day long.

I have to disagree, obviously people do watch these channels, but it seems that sky are still running scared, because they make their quorn through the sports and movies and nothing else. By choosing these lesser channels it seems to be a kop out to me.

I repear, exactly the same walkthrough than sky italy, they started from nat geo hd and discovery hd and in 2 weeks they closed all ciname hd and in about one.month no more light on any hd channel. This happens on last november and on december they finished. It is collected to the new orginal stb firmware and for you could be interesting uf someone can take the over the air upgrade....if it is possible....

Not talking about CS in this thread, talking about getting official paid for subscription cards to work in Non Sky hardware. All perfectly legal,

I started the thread and am fully aware of the content contained within this thread!!

Were all doomed and its all Pheonix's fault

On the serious side Sky UK did actually produce an NDS cam, unfortunately it was just the one and to be honest even if it was available it probably wouldn't work with the new software update. As luck would have it i found a Pace Sky HD box in the skip at work and it works fine, so even if i do accept Skys really generous offer of 25% off (I know its laughable that they think its a good offer)I won't have to have one of their monkeys grace my doorstep when they insist that i replace my old Thomson SD Sky+ box.

Unfortunately i like things done correctly so that pretty much rules out 99% of the so called engineers that work for Sky

So you did. Could you tell me which posts are are talking openly about cs of UK satellite as I can't find any. Most are wondering how to get their "legitimate" subscription card to work in non sky boxes. As at least one mod is participating in the thread and if what you where saying was true then I don't think the thread would still be live.

Nothing wrong with the thread so far. Lets keep it that way or it will be shut.

I don't want to encourage the "I only watch BBC 2 brigade" but how many "CS People" would have noticed that these channels even existed had they not read it. People should phone *** and say that they are Mr ANGRY, tell *** that they are going to cancel their sub and SLAM the phone down

Until now, everyone in UK had to choose their haircuts. But now, all male undergraduates(who bought Linux STB) in the hermit kingdom will be required to sport the same hairstyle as supreme leader of SLY UK.

I didn't think it was an ecm encryption change but the HD channel broadcast with the new H.265
