[QUOTE="Mooncamm, post: 1040443, member: 411643"] Thank you for taking the time to share your workaround, much appreciated. :) However I have never used a mobile phone and I turned 60 odd at Christmas so I doubt if I will now. I have learned that the satellite at 5 west is due to be replaced with a new satellite this year with tighter footprints which may present reception problems when the signal is reduced outside France. As well as having my Humax 1000FR currently working on 5 west, I have a TNTsat Strong receiver for 19 east with an expired card. I think that if I buy a new card for my TNTsat it will last another 4 years and be the best option as the footprint of 19 east is not due to be tightened up as far as I can see. :) I have tried out the streaming options on two 4 K TV's and nothing beats HD pictures on a satellite receiver as I am not taking the broadband route until I can no longer maintain my own dish and have too. Its my belief that at some point the multi stream channels will likely scramble anyway like Fransat service, you need an access card. So I think a dedicated receiver on 19 east TNTsat is looking the safer option. I have tried 'em all out now and can see. Thanks again for sharing. Cheers, Mooncamm [/QUOTE]
