CNN down?

Anyone else getting a message that the CNN TVE stream is not available?

Yes, Turner networks.

Have we lost yet another TVE provider?

Same here with YTTV as provider, submitted diagnostics. Was working yesterday. Oddly, the authentication works when I scan.

Do you guys think we will get CNN back?

Looks like CNN may have joined CNNI and HLN in modifying its delivery method. FWIW, works on the web and all the apps on all the system types. Also, if you take the stream directly from the website, it validates just fine:

Like the other properties, Channels is currently not able to take into account these changes and seems to be failing:

The corporate structure of TWD is pretty messed up and they don't share technology suites among the whole company. Even TBS/TNT/truTV run separately, although share a little bit, while TCM is stand-alone. CNN is the same, as are the Discovery stations.

I don't need TVmovies or anything else just the following

CNN
CNN International
MS Now
Newsnation

CNN is back on TVE. I did the rescan/authorize a second time and it worked !!!

If only it carried MS NOW !!!

EDIT it's back and authorized but it wont pla yor record in channels what gives?

That's the same behavior that I've seen all day. It authenticates fine, but you can't actually watch it.

Do you think it will resolve?

Historically do TVEchannels that go dark come back?

I even removed


TVEand tried to recreate it and no this
