"DStv Now does not have the rights for this programme" WTH?

Hi guys..

When loading up the M-Net stream, I'm greeted with a message "DStv Now Does Not Have The Rights For This Programme"

I've been using DStv now for quite a while now, and not too long ago, I could watch M-Net for hours on end via the live stream, with out and sign of that error, and including shows that they now don't have the rights for.

What's happened there?

Thanks

This just means the programme that was streaming at the time doesn't have internet streaming rights. Some programs seem to be blocked. Seen this a few times

You occasionally get it with BBC iPlayer as well.

I am in NZ QT, back in Cape Town the following Saturday, but it's irrelevant.
I use Unotelly,so my location doesn't really matter, and all the channels are open fine. It's just weird that all the programs were working a month ago, then suddenly they say that don't have the rights, so that's a Chance Monochoice was warned by the distribution companies to pull some of their programming from the online platform, due to them not having the rights for it.
