Took about 15 mins for Sportsmania to get the 3pms on today but apart from that everythings been business as usual and streamed perfectly.

Gets a bit of knocking from time to time but communication and work they have put in this week to keep things up and running has been class

Great link put up on this forum earlier so I could watch on ipad whist SM got the game working

I've got around 200 channels back on mine.

It will take a while to get all content back up.

Most servers expected back up tomorrow.

Use VPNs.

On at important times like match time and removed for further building in between. Channels coming and going. Remarkable how resilient these companies are, considering most were with this big panel provider.

Or the NHL or the NFL. All three have centralised streaming services. They also have local blackouts though that would mean you can't watch Burnley home games if you are in Burnley.

For those interested with IPTV who dont know the background to whats happened below is the latest update from SM

I thought i would do this post to try and explain why we are at where we are at. Just in case folks are unsure.

So you may have heard about this on the news.

PLEASE READ IT ALL so you can stay up to date with what's happening.

BREAKDOWN OF WHO DOES WHAT
SOURCE - this is who provides content to the PROVIDER
PROVIDER - this who who we get the service from
XTREAM CODES - the software that allows the PROVIDER to create accounts

WHAT'S HAPPENED?
on Wednesday morning at about 6am, authorities in Rome, Italy - working with at least 5 other Euro countries - have taken down XTREAM CODES.
Allegedly, for providing a TV service. This isn't what they do. They build the control panel, legitimately. So, it would suggest they decided to do that on the side.
So, whether they're are gone for good or not is in the hands of their Dutch, Italian and Bulgarian lawyer team.

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?
The effect that has had, globally, is that any provider using that software cannot currently create, edit, delete any accounts.
Of course, there are other companies who also make similar software for the control panels.
It does not mean the providers' services are gone. It just means that the provider can't make any changes at this time...any providers, globally.

HOW WILL THIS AFFECT YOU?
As you are aware, our service has been affected. We will try to provide what content we can, but without a panel its very very difficult.
We can give NO timescale as we are not the only provider looking at new panels, so like a busy road, more traffic makes it slower.
Once done It should just be a case of clearing the cache and data on your device or, the worst, uninstalling and reinstalling the app.

CAN THE PROCESS BE HELPED ALONG?
As far as the panel goes, we are dedicated to being the best it can be, with a great team for all hands on deck.

SUMMARY
There is no need to panic. This isn't a source or provider issue.

We've all been here before, worse in fact, so it'll all work out.
We will keep the group up to date with where we're at.

thanks guys.

The thing is Sky have not done whatever damage you think has been done to football - it was the big clubs (five at the time, Arsenal, Everton, Man Utd, Liverpool, Spurs) that instigated it as they recognised the potential of television and wanted to get their full share of the money that could be generated.

They still want more then the rest with the now more valuable overseas rights.

Ideas that these big clubs want competition from the rest seem unlikely to me. If they could somehow get away without the rest of us they would. All they want is more and more and to hell with the rest. That's how it started and that is how it will probably end.

I use IPVanish and its good but I think there's probably cheaper options. As it works perfectly for me saving the odd fiver or even tenner a year isnt worth me messing around and changing.

Not sure on current situation but the localised blackout only kicked in if the match wasn’t a sellout.

That's NFL on normal TV. I don't have their streaming service.

NHL blackout regardless. They black out in the UK for anything on UK television as well.

I am guessing you are on about Sportsmania. If so below is what you enter in the 4 boxers on the Smarters app

Box1 :Enter SM, MHD or UM depending on which service you subscribe to
Box2: Enter your username
Box3: Enter your password
Box4: Enter http://mania.services:25461" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Edit: You need to get added on to their closed facebook group cos that is where they manage all the support and updates. The group is called The Maniacs Lair and if you request access and tell them your user details the admin should approve

If it is sportsmania then you can easily install Kodi and the SM add-on to your MacBook.

do you know the settings in order to obtain latest Sportsmania repo file for Kodi?
On the SPortsmania web site the link for setting up Kodi is out of date and most of the pictures are no longer available.
or do you know a contact there to request their help?

Thanks
Great match yesterday I hope you got to see it. I was in the CFS end

Hi mate,

Below is the repo address for Kodi

As I mentioned on a previous post all the support is done through their facebook group so you need to get on that. Hopefully the below link will take you to the homepage where you can then request access

Its not insider details. SM is massive and the authorities and big company's know all about them and how they operate.

SM security goes well beyond basic info posted on a nothing forum so dont get yourself all excited about it
