MAG Box Problems
We usually face some specific issues in MAG boxes.
The 2 prevalent error messages we meet are:
STB blocked or Black Screen
Page Loading Error
Loading bar stuck
In this article, we are going to solve these problems.
STB blocked on MAG happens for various types of reasons. we are going to make a list and explain all of the possible reasons.
Note: Recently in some MAG boxes we have only a Black Screen instead of STB blocked error message.
MAC address didn’t add to the subscription or Removed
For MAG boxes it’s necessary to add the box MAC to the IPTV subscription. What is the MAC address in MAG devices?
Privileged IPTV providers give you a dashboard to can edit your IPTV subscription, in the dashboard you can add the MAC or check if it’s still on a subscription or not.
And if there is not any dashboard, need to contact the IPTV provider about this case.
Adding a wrong MAC address
If you somehow by mistake add the wrong MAC address to your IPTV dashboard, there is a 100% chance you might see this error on your screen. So we highly suggest you double-check every character and number you added to your panel from the back side of your MAG device.
Line expired
If your IPTV subscription is expired, you will face the STB blocked (Black Screen) error on your screen. So head back to your IPTV dashboard and double check if your subscription is expired or not and extend the line if it’s expired.
Line disabled
IPTV providers block (disable) the subscriptions which use in more than allowed devices simultaneously. So should check the line by IPTV service if it has been blocked or not.
ISP blockage
One more reason that STB blocked (Black Screen) error might occur is ISP blockage. In this case, we suggest you contact your Internet Service Provider and ask for further information. You can also try with another internet connection such as a 4G connection from your phone to make sure about this issue.
The last solution for ISP blockage is using a reliable VPN service, but please note that for MAG boxes you need a special router to install VPN on it.
Adding a wrong portal address
Exactly identical to the first reason, if you add the wrong portal address to your MAG box, there is a 100% chance that you might see this error again. Now find out the correct portal address by asking from your IPTV provider and it to your MAG device. How can I change the portal address in the MAG box?
Page Loading Error
Mostly this problem occurs because of a problem in internet connection.
On the Page Loading Error Screen, it will say “Ethernet Link: UP” if all is ok or “DOWN” if the Ethernet port is not connected to the router. In addition, it would be possible that your Internet connection does not work well, so you have to check whether Internet access is available.
How to solve this Issue
Firstly this error usually occurs as a result of the lack of Internet connection to the setup box. you need to be sure that the Ethernet cable between your STB and the router is plugged.
The LAN light on the router port which is connected to the back of your STB has to be lit. Also, check the connection on the back of the setup box itself, there should be 2 lights on the connection itself where the cable is plugged into the setup box, one orange and the other is green.
If either the light on the router or the lights on the STB ports do not lit, there should be a connection issue and it is highly recommended to change the Ethernet cable.
If even after these changes the problem still exists, the next step is to unplug both the router and setup box power cables. After unplugging, plug back the router power cable at first and after two minutes plug in the STB power cable.
If your router is places in one room and your setup box is in another room and connected to the router via the Ethernet line, please check the lights on the sockets. If this is not lighted, the power line has lost its wireless connection to the router and you will need to reboot both the router and then the power line.
Once the light is back, you have to reboot the setup box too. If the light is lit and the STB is still stuck on the loading screen, you need to make sure that the power line has the LAN light on the front.
Loading bar stuck on the MAG box
Sometimes when the users try to switch a loading message appears on the screen. This issue can be tackled by rebooting both the modem and the STB.

Enigma2 is an open source software embedded on all the Linux-based receivers such as VU+ or Dreambox. Enigma2 offers a lot of features including Auto-Bouquets, 7 Days EPG (Electronic Program Guide), and Picons (Channel Icons).
All older Vu+ hardware set-top boxes are MIPS-powered, newer ones are all ARM-powered and use Enigma2 image-based software as firmware. Its firmware is officially user-upgradable since it is a Linux-based computer, as opposed to third-party “patching” of alternate receivers. Firmware is based on Enigma 2, which was originally designed for Dreambox by Dream Multimedia.
How to add IPTV channels to Enigma2 via auto script
Step 1: Start by downloading the necessary items. DCC_E2 (Dreambox Control Center for Enigma2). You must connect to your Enigma box using Dreambox Control Center E2 and click on “Telenet“. But first, you must find the IP address of your enigma2 box. We will discuss this further ahead in this article.
Step 2: To connect, we need to know the box IP address, username, and password (username and password usually is root/root). Now about the IP, click Menu button on the remote controller. Go to Setting then Network Settings. You should see something like the below image:
Step 3: Once connected to your box via Dreambox Control Center, it`s time to execute the Autoscript command which should be provided by your IPTV provider. These scripts can be given in two versions:
– OE1.6 version which uses Python 2.6: It is advised to use this version on non-Dreambox receivers.
– OE2.0 version which uses Python 2.7: It is advised to use this version on Dreambox receivers.
So for our Dreambox of this example the command line should be like this:
Openbox has been one of the most popular boxes used over the years as it is affordable, simple to use, and straightforward particularly if you are a CCCam user. Now as IPTV is ruling the market, some of the open box users have no choice except running the IPTV service on this setup box. What is IPTV?
Caution: RAM is something that IPTV relies on as IPTV players buffer the video first and then plays it. Openbox v8s has moderate ram and CPU, therefore after switching channels, or sometimes without any reasons, Openbox may crash. We just want you to drop your expectations while using IPTV on your Openbox IPTV Player.
The well known IPTV Player app on Openbox v8s is called WebTV. You just need to import an m3u file using USB flash drive onto your Openbox v8s and the job is finished, but there are two ways that you can do this setup. The first method is a common way, uploading the file from the WebTV app menu. When that method doesn’t work or you don’t have the “Read By USB” option on WebTV App page, the m3u file must be uploaded through Upgrade page located on Tools menu of Openbox. What is M3U?
Recommendation: We suggest you rename the m3u file of your m3u line into WebTV.m3u meaning if your m3u file is like “name.m3u” you simply change “name” to “WebTV” and leave the format be as m3u. The WebTV app reads m3u files with WebTV.m3u name properly.
If you have any problems viewing the Channels we recommended that you restart your Openbox and Wi-Fi Router.
How to add IPTV channels to Openbox
Step 1: Follow these tasks:
1-Connect the USB containing the Web.m3u file
2-Open Menu
3-Move right all the way to “Multimedia”
4-From the list choose “WebTV”
Step 2: If there are channels already on that list, make sure that empty by pressing the green button: Del All. Now press the yellow button to “Read By USB” then the channels will appear.
Step 3: If you don’t have the yellow option ” Read by USB”, go back to the main menu and select “Tools”.
Step 4: Now select “Upgrade By USB”.
Step 5: On the next page, change Upgrade Mode to “Misc Files” and from the bottom of the list choose “Select & Upgrade”. Now press OK on it.
Step 6: From the window that pops up, select “WebTV.m3u (Web Stream)” and you must make sure a green tik appears on the right side. Afterward, press the yellow button to Upgrade.
After the process is done, you will see a message saying “Upgrade Finished. Press Info Key for Result”. Now press exit twice to head back to the main menu and from Multimedia open WebTV app and the channels will appear on the list.

I have an old TV, can I still access IPTV services?
To do so, you have to attach your TV to an external device called an IPTV Media Box or setup box (STB) which will connect your TV to the Internet as well as an IPTV receiver. There exist numerous popular IPTV Media boxes in the markets such as Android boxes, MAG boxes, Enigma boxes, Apple TV boxes, Roku, and so forth.
As time passes TVs are becoming smarter and this will prevent the owner of the old TVs from smart features and applications; however, there exist numerous streaming media players which can be connected to the old TVs and turn them to the smart one. Some of these devices include Apple TV, Roku Premier, Amazon FireTV, Nvidia Shield TV, Google Chromecast, and so forth.
Setup boxes
The only solution for turning an old TV into a smart one is by using a setup box. Utilizing a setup box on an old TV will bring you more features and options other than IPTV channels.
Android setup boxes
For example, by using an Android box, you can connect to Google Play Store and download thousands of Android games, and play those games on your TV. The best setup box for having both IPTV channels and playing Android games is Nvidia Shield which also comes with a Gamepad or a controller which makes it easier to play Android games.
iOS setup boxes
These setup boxes enable the users to utilize an HDTV to stream video, music, and podcasts as well as downloading apps and games from the App Store. AppleTV is the best option for this operating system and it offers all the features an Android box has to offer, plus, with a remote that adds voice control from Siri, a touchpad, and an accelerometer and gyroscope for gameplay makes this device an even better solution compared to other platforms.
MAG boxes
Infomir’s MAG is by far one the greatest IPTV devices in the world. After 2007, Infomir produced Set-Top Boxes following the brand name MAG. These Set-Top Boxes are multi-functional devices that allow you to quickly organize your media contents and use IPTV services. The latest releases of MAG boxes will have an Android operating system embedded, however, you need to make sure that your IPTV provider supports these new versions.
How to connect a setup box to TV
This is very easy and simple…
Put the TV Box in the same room as the TV monitor.
Connect your setup box to a power outlet.
Connect an HDMI cable from the TV Box to an available HDMI port on the TV.
Turn on your TV and switch the input to the appropriate HDMI port.
Now connect your setup box to an internet connection via WiFi or Cable.
Now turn on your setup box and wait for it to boot up. You can now watch IPTV channels on your OLD TV based on the instructions described above.

Step 2: Click the “Capture Device” tab and select “Desktop” from the “Capture mode” box. Note: The default frame rate is one frame per second, which won’t appear very smooth. You’ll probably want to increase the frame rate. After you’re happy with the frame rate, click the Convert / Save button.
Step 3: Set a destination file in the Destination section. You can enable the Display the output checkbox to display the contents of your desktop in the VLC window while recording, but this isn’t necessary.
To adjust the resolution and video codec, click the edit button to the right of the Profile box.
You can also select a profile from the profile box and use it as-is, without editing it.
Step 4: Change the resolution by clicking over to the “Video codec” tab and using the options in the Resolution section. For example, you can use half your desktop’s resolution by typing 0.5 into the Scale box.
Step 5: After specifying your options, click the Save button and click the Start button.
VLC will inform you that it’s “streaming” your desktop to a file. Use your computer normally and VLC will record your desktop. When you’re done, click the Stop button.
Open your saved file to view the video on your desktop. You can send this file to others, upload it to YouTube, or do whatever else you like with it.
There are some ways by which you can modify the setting of the VLC media player which finally can help you to watch IPTV with less buffering by increasing the cache size. In the following, some of these tips are mentioned. How to watch IPTV on VLC?
How to optimize VLC
Step 1: Open the VLC media player, select “Tools“, and click on “Preference“.
Step 2: Next, click “Input / Codecs” show setting “All” option at the bottom of the window. Click “Input / Codecs” in the left sidebar.
Step 3: If the file that is buffering is playing from a local hard drive (Static M3U file), look for the “File Caching (ms)” option under “Advanced” on the right side. The caching value here is estimated in milliseconds, so setting the value to 1000 will buffer for 1 second. The issue with setting this option too large is that if you want to manually skip to a new point, there will be a larger lag while the content is buffered again.
If the file you are trying to play is located on a network share (Dynamic M3U url), you can change the caching value for “Network Caching (ms)”.
Cache size in VLC
Another temporary solution when you are running a network URL format or streaming files like TS and M3U file formats is explained below:
Open the VLC media player, click on “Media” and select “Open Network Stream“.
Type the URL you want to play, then click on the “Show More Options” checkbox.
Now, based on your Internet speed you can increase the cache size.
