For the last couple of days, whenever I go to the DSTV website's online TV guide on the internet - https://guide.dstv.com - & browse through the various daily programme schedule listings for DSTV Premium, it only shows details for dates up to Thursday, 20 May 2021 - browsing to any subsequent date after that comes up with the following error message:

Also, when trying to view National Geographic (Channel 181) on the DSTV Now app - on both my eMatic Android TV box or via the PC web browser - it seems to have frozen on a endless repeat loop of the last couple of minutes of 'Airport Security - Peru & Brazil' - which was screened from 17h34 to 18h24 - although other channels like Discovery (Channel 121) are working OK.

Here's what I mean - opening the web browser gives me these listings of my frequently viewed channels:

Notice that NatGeo (181) shows 'Drain the Oceans' - the current programme being broadcast - but when I click on it - this is what appears instead - The endless loop repeat of 'Airport Security - Peru & Brazil'... even though the caption says 'Drain the Oceans'.

Is anyone else having this issue with DSTV Now as well?

:whistling:
 
Looks like the DSTV Now 'endless loop' of about 30 seconds of the same programme is also happening on Universal (Channel 117) as well... it's stuck on Law & Order: SVU, when Chicago PD should be showing instead.

Just checked DSTV Now again - NatGeo (181) is STILL STUCK on last night's episode of 'Airport Security: Peru & Brazil' - over 12 hours later!

Thankfully, it appears that Universal (117) is back to normal functionality once again...
 
There's STILL no change as far as NatGeo (181) on DSTV Now is concerned - it's still stuck on 'Groundhog Day' with last night's episode of 'Airport Security: Peru & Brazil' - until such time as Monochoice finally realises it is totally borked & rectifies the problem.

Hey there Brian - all good here - I sure do miss the witty repartee & banter between myself & MC on their forum - mostly with regard to numerous technical issues with their EPG for the PVR's - seems some problems still remain now that I have migrated over to the DSTV Now / CatchUp online streaming platform... :whistling:
