its a cache port for sidless and problem users

if you want to be on main port get a box thta puts out a sid or fix your setup if already have a box that produces sids

we are not going to let a handful of users screw up main port for everyone else

How does one fix the setup, am i understanding this correctly.....modded VIPs are problem users?

Is there any chance that the Mlb package could be made available to the sidless receivers?I tried to watch the Chisox game yesterday and over the course of the game saw the picture twice

OK I'm finding that a little more looking around helps....but I plan to test one a dem dare FTA low end power supply units

Are you saying you were watching it and then it was gone?
If so then I think someone was watching this game with a receiver that provides the SID to the server - while someone is watching that channel it will be available to everyone to watch because the control words will be in the cache memory for all SIDless receivers to use and for all other receivers. Once someone is getting the control words for a channel - then all other requests for the same control words go to the cache server - FSLB - the load balancer - will send all other requests to the cache - it won't bother sending any more requests to the card servers as that would be a waste of time. Why tie up the card servers doing work that has already been done.

If the guy watching then switches from the Chisox game to a diffferent channel then the control words will not be in the cache and no SIDless receiver will be able to watch.
As soon as a receiver provides the SID for a channel - it will get sent to the card servers to generate the control words.

The only way the control words will get to the cache is if someone that provides the SID is watching that channel or if the Server owners pull the control words for that channel and store it in the cache.

that makes no sense

if you don't know if your box is sidless you can pm your seller and they can find out for you is all that was meant

im guessing they don't know if there box was sidless....trying to offer direction it has nothing to do with switch

It is available but someone on the main port has to be watching it concurrently. This is will generate the CW and store it on the cache port to be available.

If no user is watching it on the main port, it will not broadcast as there is no CW available in the cache

What exactly do you mean by cache port? If the main port has chan X and a user on port 54321 requests chan X, then shouldn't the cache port retrieve the control words from the main port? If the cache port has only its own set of chans, is there a listing for this?

hd channels seem to act as though they are indeed on a cache server,but,it seems strange that the hd channels is not working,but,the corresponding sd channels is.people are not watching hd,but are watching sd,makes no sense to me.

[got2bme]

hd channels working perfectly here.

maybe you have a receiver problem

sat9182 is making some changes this week

sidless boxes will be moved to a different port ( port 54321 )
if your box quits working and is sidless, odds are you have been moved try port 54321 before pming us

How do I know if my receiver is sidless, do you have a list of known good or known bad receivers?
How do you send that first warning? Email, PM...?
I haven't logged in for a while, I'm afraid I might have missed something. And I have been noticing random channels the picture "breaking up" in squares and sound stuttering after say 15-20 minutes. Others work just fine for hours. Wonder if that's a symptom of being moved to cache port or should I look for the issue somewhere else. I haven't changed any ports yet and still running on default 12345

[pennywise]

if you were moved ports you would have had to change it in your server settings on your receiver. If you did not do that then you haven't been moved.

Sounds like you have bad signal to me. Check your signal quality bars on all transponders. Something may have moved, like your dish or something LNB going bad or rusted wires, bad switch to name a few. Don't let the receiver run like that, turn it off, that will get you moved to the cache port. Start with checking all your equipment.

you say sound stuttering after say 15-20 minutes.

well sound is not encrypted so I would be looking at your box or dish setup
maybe switch or dish aliment is not perfect
or box is overheating

main port should have no issues your box is not sidless or you would have had to change port by now
