    Infomir BLOCKING portals

    How could this affect sellers in the future?

    I'm surprised no one has mentioned this already on the forums but apparently this was officially announced on 12/20/18

    Code:
    https://www.infomir.eu/eng/press-center/news/201-infomir-protects-the-copyright/
    * Post #33 will have the 'NoBlock' file versions.
    The files can be found thru a file host site which is shown at the very bottom of that post #33

    This started with infomir sometime ago. I saw it coming and saw it started many months ago.
    It was about the same time they dropped Stalker Middleware and replaced it with the new Ministra Middleware.
    They also at the time, posted documentation on their website talking about this and asking the public to report any infringements.
    It was also about the same time that they removed their software releases from wikipedia, or at least moved them.

    Stalker became so very popular over time and I guess infomir decided they did not want to be a known party any longer,. And with the 'new' laws in place in Europe, it became clear what and why this was happening.

At the point where the illusion becomes too expensive to maintain, they will take down the scenery, move the tables and chairs out of the way, then they will pull back the curtains and you will see the brick wall at the back of the theater."

    Thank you

    Any ideas on a Linux based box that isn't Android or Chinese?
    I just want a simple box that only has that function. I sell a lot of boxes to older ppl and they wouldn't need all of those Android festures.

    Maybe get the opinion from other sellers and not a sarcastic answer.

    This may apply more to VOD items.

    It may be a settings problem, but I have MAC account for testing(p2 NFPS), and currently using with stbemu pro.
    Login and TV access is OK.
    VOD selection returns "Server Unavailable".

    *Note: By using local playlist from template, VOD access is OK.

    Just FYI

    As a reseller that thinks of his long term customers should I be worry about 50 of my customers wanting a refund because their mag suddenly stop working?

    maybe buy a box that doesn't cave in and scream the sky is falling
    as a seller you have more to worry about than disgruntled customers

    Most, if not all, emulate the Stalker Middleware or carry the Stalker Middleware onboard (like I said, Stalker became very popular as a Middleware)
    They may call it something else and the outer looks and functions may be different, but it is an emulation of Stalker.
    DreamOnLine or MyTVOnline or Buzztv are some examples.
    Most all carry the Android OS with a linux kernel.
