@All
For those asking me for keys or other solutions for AJS in readiness for Euro2012 we need to talk behind the scenes. As already said this is an FTA forum so lets not break the rules. I cannot post BANNED material here. Here is my contact, as usual it will be valid for a few days: jzwxxgum@trashmail.net
Lets start talking now

@ALL
I 'HOPE' to have a solution as we approach the kick-off date. I believe we will watch these games on an FTA platform. As I dont have any alternative too I am working hard to watch these games in the comfort of my home. Watch this space.

petfun4u: You don't need to change any ic, it has happened to me before. Disconnect the cable from the decoder, turn it off and on to see if the same message appear. If it booth normally, then you need to work on your cable. Don't allow the copper wire to touch the tread wire, that is all.


remain blessed

Mmmmmmh, but this is what he said is happening...

Pls nairalandas my strong srt4661x receiver just started showing lnbf even afta i disconected d lnb cable from bhind. Help pls.!

Al Jazeera confirms English Premier League interest

Qatar based Al Jazeera Sport (AJS) has confirmed it may bid for the domestic TV rights to the English Premier League, ahead of launching the beIN Sport network in France this week and its August arrival in the US.

"We are studying whether there is room for another sports channel there [the UK]," Nasser al-Khelaifi, director of Al Jazeera Sport, is quoted as saying by Reuters.

"There is a lot of opportunity in the world for sports channels," he added. "We are going to look at all the opportunities in Europe. We are going to study each market one by one, and if there is room for another channel, then we will go."

With 15 pay TV and two free to air channels broadcast in Arabic and English, AJS is already the most watched sports network in the Middle East and North Africa. But this past year AJS has also been seeking European football rights for television audiences around the globe.

French Ligue 1, Italian Serie A, German Bundesliga, UEFA Champions League and UEFA Euro 2012 coverage has already been snapped up for the French TV market, and US TV rights to Spain's La Liga, Serie A and the French Ligue 1 are reportedly either sealed or in negotiation, along with football action from Latin America.

Now the Qatar-based broadcaster is studying tender documents and market conditions to broadcast the English Premier League to its home audience. The last deal for what is considered the hottest TV property in football cost News Corp affiliate Sky and ESPN a whopping £1.782 billion (US$2.9 billion) between them, and a three year rights package for the UK - beginning with the 2013-14 season - is currently up for auction. The English Premier League is expected to make its selection in June.

It remains to be seen if a foray onto Sky's well established turf could prove successful in the UK, however competitors are certainly taking the gas-rich Gulf state's interest seriously, as Qatar signals its intent as a global sporting powerhouse ahead of hosting the World Cup in 2022.

"An Al Jazeera bid is a realistic option," Ross Hair, managing director ESPN UK said in February. "They have done something very interesting in France in buying first division football against the incumbent satellite broadcaster Canal Plus and we've also looked at what they've done in other markets.

"You can draw parallels with the upcoming auction in the UK. Al Jazeera have the ambition to grow further in sport and into other markets," Hair added.

In France, AJS' two new channels will reach a potential 14 million cable, satellite and IPTV homes, and cost subscribers 11 euros a month. As well as football, beIN Sport will air golf, basketball, and provide some coverage of the London 2012 Olympics.

Meanwhile, across the Atlantic, beIN Sport is reportedly in talks with Imagina US, a Miami-based production company that would provide studios for the broadcasts of the European football matches Al Jazeera acquires in the US.

BeIN Sport is expected to target the enormous US resident Spanish-speaking audience in addition to English speakers, providing two channels of what the continent considers niche sports – such as football, or soccer in local parlance.

Since 2007, Fox Soccer and its sister channel Fox Soccer Plus have brought Italy's top-flight football league Serie A to US viewers, after initially sharing the rights with GolTV. In addition, the News Corp-owned channels have televised France's Ligue 1 over the past two seasons, having reportedly acquired the US rights without parting with a fee.

AJS, however, claims beIN Sport is not going after the same market as Fox or ESPN - the other heavyweight pay TV sports provider in the US.

"The rationale there is completely different than what we are doing in France," said al-Khelaifi. "It's not about competing with ESPN or Fox, it's more of a niche channel featuring international sports."

Dancetrippin expands to Africa

At the SatCom 2012 in Johannesburg, satellite operator SES and Dutch-based music channel DanceTrippin announced the start of DanceTrippin via the SES Astra 4A satellite at 5 degrees East for pan-African distribution.

DanceTrippin features hundreds of hours of unique in-house produced content, mainly live recorded DJ sets from the world’s biggest DJ’s and best clubs, such as Space, Amnesia and Pacha. Following the successful European launch in 2011 via the Astra orbital position 23.5 degrees East, DanceTrippin reaches close to five million households in Europe.
Managing director Tim Metz of DanceTrippin: “We’ve always believed in the demand for a dedicated global dance music channel. The launch in the African market is a next milestone in DanceTrippin’s global distribution plan. Already since 2001, DanceTrippin has been running one of the most popular international sites for electronic music,www.dancetrippin.tv, which attracted close to six million unique visits last year. After our success in Europe, we are now ready to take the step into the African continent. The feedback on our website confirms the very high interest and demand in Africa’s big cities for dance music. The further extension of our global partnership with SES will now also allow the African people to enjoy the world’s best dance events in their homes.”

Ibrahima Guimba-Saidou, VP and general manager, of SES for Africa, said: “Being a global satellite company we are pleased to take our customers wherever opportunities arise for them. Following the success in Europe, we are confident that DanceTrippin’s high-end and cross-border content will also greatly attract the African population. We are looking forward to a continued fruitful cooperation and we hope to jointly enter other parts of the world in the near future.”

Sony Pictures TV spreads MENA reach with content deals

Middle East broadcasters Rotana, Dubai Media Incorporated and Al Rayyan have signed new distribution deals to air feature films from the extensive library of Sony Pictures Television (SPT).
The agreement is a first content partnership between SPT and Al Rayyan, Qatar's latest satellite broadcaster, and the Egyptian TV arm of the Rotana media conglomerate. While the deal with national broadcaster Dubai Media Incorporated (DMI) updates a previous contract for movies to be shown on its Dubai One channel.
"As a committed participant on a pan-regional level, SPT is now also establishing new relationships at a national level as the sector expands. With many thousands of feature films and television series, the SPT library is well placed to meet growing Middle East demand," said Ziad Yaghi, executive director, distribution for the Middle East, Sony Pictures Television.
SPT opened a distribution office in Dubai in October 2011, in order to grow business for the studio in the Middle East and North Africa. It already has significant content deals with two major pan-Arab broadcasters MBC and OSN, also based in Dubai.
