Rocket VOD Server not available message

What do I need to do when I get the Server Not Available message after selecting a movie to watch?

What type of receiver or application are you using for this?
Is this new or when did it start?

Hi. I have the same issue with a Mag 254. How can I switch to the player to ijk? I have rebooted and that still did not fix the issue.

You can not change the player with the Mag 254 box.
You could try changing the server URL Portal to the long version of the URL Portal

Log onto your code at the service website and you will see the long version shown here.

Thanks… I will give it a try.

I managed to change the URL Portal to the long version of the URL but I still get the same error. I am using portal p1.

its time to upgrade your box to newer box.

there is not much you can do with the Mag receiver when it comes to adding external players or other apps and etc... and unfortunately with rocket you can not change the server URL Portal yourself (p1 to p2 for example), at least last I checked you can not.

There is however one more thing you can try with that Mag box. This is a long read and seems it may be a long process, but it is easier then it looks ...

Try that and maybe you will get the VODs

the directions are good.
A little lengthy but easy to follow (I think)


Good luck my friend
