[QUOTE="Si Hartgroves, post: 1149391, member: 418776"] Just a quick query, which is bloody frustrating: I’m actually quietly impressed with my new Arris 4K box, but my problem is that the remote has a dedicated BBC iPlayer button. This launches the app correctly - but trying to watch any progs with ‘age-related’ content (in my case, Luther) throws up a screen requiring a PIN number or password to continue. I can access iPlayer via other devices (iPhones, iPads, Amazon Fire TV box) without any of this difficulty and I’ve never set a parental password. The usual 0000 default is a no-go - and clicking on the ‘I’m stupid enough to have forgotten my PIN’ screen asks me for my mother’s maiden name - which again doesn’t play ball. It’s as if there is a PIN hard-coded into the Arris O/S. Either that, or I’ve been cursed by the sat fairy.. Does anyone know a work round for this? I’ve emailed Freesat - but silence was the stern reply. TIA Si [/QUOTE]
