BBCAmerica channel rescan shows error:
Cable provider authentication failed
I am able to login to bbcamerica.com and watch live tv with the same Directv credentials.
There was a problem last week with AMC Networks (including BBCA) and DirecTV credentials. It was addressed in a DVR pre-release update. Have you updated your DVR since Friday? If so, have you tried manually rescanning the channel?
Yes to both questions.
Still had/have TVE problem with BBCAmerica and other channels with my DirecTV account, but I found a way to bypass the problem.
I tried many ways to get my regular DirecTV account to stop prompting for the License Agreement. I went through all the profile settings and changed my security questions, and nothing worked. Then I noticed there was a way to grant permissions to another email address and that worked. Interestingly when I set up the other account and answered the security questions it asked me to accept a "License Agreement", something it does not do with my main account.
Anyway, I got back all the DirecTV channels I lost.
