    Cannot access ITV Player

    Since ITV has changed the name of their i-player I can no longer access ITV player, all I get is a message saying "The service is not currently available, please try again later (10001)" this seems to be since it became known as ITV Hub, I've tried retuning but no good, is this the same as BBCs...

    BBC IPlayer to be discontinued on Foxsat from September 2016

    That's hardly the point though is it Ezra? we pay for a TV licence so we must expect to be able to access all the facilities that the BBC supply without having to constantly change the set top box, this change by the BBC is to combat people who access TV on line without paying for a licence why...

    Ok Graham, I've tried it the other way round and no change still can't get those channels, interestingly enough I don't seem to have Euronews either, but I'm not going to worry about that for now. I think if I can find the problem for the channels I've listed the other channels will come in as...

    Hello again Graham, yes with Fortec box disconnected I still get the channels on the Humax, as yet I haven't tried it the other way round, 'Er indoors would go nuts if I suddenly marched in and turned off the Humax in the middle of "The Chase" ! but anything is worth a go so as soon as the coast...

    Hi Graham, me again! The Humax and the Fortec are connected to the same dish and I've got 100% on both channels of the Humax and 90% on the Fortec (this set is on quite a long cable so the drop is probably due to signal loss over distance) so the scanner is correctly positioned and, yes I got...

    There you go Ezra, although what difference that made I'm not sure. Hi Graham, I think I understand, duh, sorry to be a bit thick, but I still don't understand how to get my missing channels, I certainly had them before we moved and I seem to be able to get all the others that I had, I have...

    Hi Graham me again, let me deal with the points you raised in you last missive in the order they appear, whether there is any point in listing satellites or not is neither here nor there, Fortec have done this, your next point is a little difficult to answer, perhaps new satellites do replace...

    Hi again Graham, interesting response, my Foxsat has the facility to add satellites, the original list, because it's so old doesn't show Astra 2E, 2F or Eutelsat they just didn't exist when it was made, there was Astra 2A,2B,2D and Eurobird 1, but it does have the facility to add satellites...

    Thanks for that Graham, I checked on the humax that the freq. etc. matched that of the chart you supplied and added the details to the TP list, it found 6 TV programmes on that channel and I did a single sat. scan on Astra 2F and there they were! ah yes bit of a problem, the 6 they found were...

    Hi All, I have a Humax Foxsat HDR and on it I can receive more>movies, movies4men and movies4men+1, I also have an elderly (like me!) Fortec Star 4200 which for some reason will not receive these channels, I've looked up the frequencies and the polarity and symbol rate for all three and added...

    ITV Player

    I can only assume that ITV have done nothing about this problem because I still am suffering the same, no access to ITV Player except via green, green, blue green, green. Does anybody know of a permanent fix?
