Viark VIARK TYPE BOXES

If your referring to the GT Media box. I think I've got a faulty box. Unable to access the BOX ID. (cursor will not move and allow me to view the 14x "x") and can't get the 1ptv to run. I've requested a return. Maybe I'll order another in the next day or so?
Have you updated the firmware

You need to flash it with the Mars Firmware
 
Thinking about it worst case if the box was downgraded via RS232 it could have lost its ID and GTmedia support would need to supply a special firmware which recovers the box ID.

Convoluted but might be where you're at if it won't get a box ID.
 
Does Digitalb broadcast all Premier League matches or just the top games ??
It shows most of the 3pm sat games and all the others, as they have other leagues showing live games if there's more than 4 x 3pm epl games which is unusual these days then sometimes odd one is missed but they have used SS1 sports news channel for games as well.

I have been in contact with a webshop in Algeria? they sent a firmware update, plus firmware links from "Techkings" Please see picture, cursor will not move to right to hover over the "x"
Have you tried running the box through wifi rather than ethernet just incase it's that causing your problem ? Since you mentioned the iptv isn't working either so might be worth a try disconnecting the ethernet rebooting box and connecting via wifi to see if any different.
 
Does anyone feel like explaining the reasons why only some channels open (on UK for instance), and some don't? Back in the days of CS using an E2 box, 28.2 would clear and all channels would open. But with the Forever system, only certain HD channels do. Is it a case of needing 1 source feed per channel that you want to open or something? So focus would be on the most important/popular channels. Just curious.

Thanks for your hints. Youtube works. CCCam works, Always shows as connected via ethernet. I tried the 1ptv and the channels downloaded but "live" TV wouldn't play. VOD/series played OK. Also tried Wireless, box couldn't find our router (which is less than two meters away.
Ordered another box. I'll have another go before I send it back. Thanks.

Just guess work, it is what the card they use has permissions for, it could also be they dont have all the idents on the server as they may not be aware of them, although i did hear it mentioned it was to reduce server load, which i found strange.

I the past user have mentioned missing channels to their SP1-Mars supplier BT Sport comes to mind and they were added.

No one card will open all available channels.

That's good to hear, I've personally been using wifi since i bought my box and it has been spot on. Although i hope my ethernet works fine too incase i ever need it 😅 Did you add your own iptv sub to the box as i know there is an app to do that ? I did try the vod app that come with box when i 1st got mine and it worked pretty well.
