IPTV Private Server (NFPS)
No US tv channels for the last couple days, non US channels and movies are working. It sure seems like the video source is coming from the same place. Tracing the IP of both the IKS and IPTV server show they are both coming from the same server farm, in Amsterdam if I recall correctly.
Also, if there is "no relation" then it would also seem strange that IPTV is honoring the IKS rockets out there.
Yea most channels down and some like fox sports one has been down for weeks, hopefully they get all the bugs out before they try and get people to actually pay for this service because right now live tv with kodi is working better! Hope all have a great week!
It's obvious the bugs are to be worked out before it goes pay.
That's why it's free right now, to work the bugs out.
But you're posting about channels on a server that is up- and free.
Server is up or no channels would show.
So are you saying that we shouldn't waste our time posting about the fact that most American channels are down and have been for awhile and just be happy with the Spanish channels that work since it is free? I guess I am confused because I thought the point of this thread was to post channels up and down status , I realize that the server is up because if it wasn't no channels at all would be available but you seem to make it seem like that all channels are up and working flawlessly and the problem is on my end totally which if that is the case I do apologize for posting that the current status of the server is unacceptable but I was simply giving my opinion in the future I will refrain from posting the status of my channels. Have a great day!
You can waste as much time as you want posting, but the server techs know already what channels are there and are trying to add as many as they can. Wouldn't do any good to add every channel they can and have everything unstable would it..
Thread is for what the title says, SERVER up or down status- if one channel comes in then the server is obviously up isn't it. Title does NOT say what channel is up or down, that would be be so full of different channel requests nobody could tell if the server was down or if their settings are off.
If you wish to go through and make a list of the channels you're getting then post.
Server is FREE to get it setup and stable- if someone is selling you something you need to read more. If the server was working perfect with all the channels then it would be time to set it up for payment.
You are the beta tester now, to test stability and load. You are not paying anything for it and everyone thanks you for connecting and enjoying tv- it makes it easier to see where the server settings should be.
Channels will be added, takes time to do it right
To all the mods that replied, it is a new service and is in beta testing mode that is understood but this type of service and equipment is also new and in beta testing with the viewers also. I for one, didn't realize that if channels even showed that the server was active. For a few days, every channel I tried did not work, I fully admit that I did not try all channels, only a few of my favorites. I now know that some channels working, some not is to be expected for a while.
As for the server up/down thread, it seems pretty useless if its purpose is to only report if the server is actually up and running. A server that is up and running but not doing any actual serving is down for all practical purposes. Likewise, a server that is up but totally overloaded and unable to respond in a timely manner is also down for practical purposes, that was the case in recent times with IKS. Hopefully, the persons responsible for the server do not need to be told if it is up or down.
Perhaps instead of being titled and used for server up/down reporting the better function would be to report quality of service. When I noticed the US channels down for the last few days, and being new to the equipment and service, I first wondered if it was something in my setup. Next, I went to this forum, looked around in announcements, and searched recent posts to see if others were reporting the US channels down, no announcement, no post at the time confirming US channels down. THAT would be usefull information and prevent a lot of useless posts.
As BIO said earlier in this thread "You can waste as much time as you want posting, but the server techs know already what channels are there" Would it be all that difficult to make a short post in the announcement section when channels are down for days so users don't have to be left in the dark wondering if its on their end or the server end? It wouldn't take any longer than posts in this thread did and would serve a very useful purpose as well as saving a lot of unnecessary posts.
Lastly, so far I am very impressed with the new service and equipment in these early stages.
