Just had a look at the iptv on viark sat as never use, great choice of uk and world channels and VOD, and great quality, well impressed.
I have SP2 code on viark.
I use the films and series on Viark DRS2 sp2 works great didn't use live tv much I find it is well worth it as its only cost few euros/pounds more than sp1 cost

my viark sat 4k stuck in boot mode can anyone advise please how to reset?
1. Format a USB to FAT32.
2. Download original Viark sofware and rename the bin file to "update.bin" and copy to the USB.
3. With the Viark disconnected from the power, insert the USB into the VIARK receiver.
4. Turn on the Viark and press (hold down) the POWER button on the front of the receiver.
5. Stop pressing the POWER button, once the letters "-ES-" appear on the display, as the recovery will begin.
Note: if the recovery fails, try several more times to get the recovery to work.

Now flash the latest PT firmware

I believe originally there was some iptv included but my box is nearly 3 years old and we did not have to do the sp1 exchange. The code i have now is sp2 so it has iptv although i don't use it often.
Yes, either 6 or 9 months IPTV was included when I bought all three of my Viark boxes. Can't recall if it was 6 or 9 months. I never used it as in those days, the content and quality of the stream was quite poor.

Can you watch 4K sports channels with iptv?
I don't know if the viarks iptv has any 4k channels but they are supposed to be available via other iptv providers. The problem is that often they are simply not very good. Most of us prefer to watch programs in hd on satellite than watch 4k on iptv.
