CRUNCHER Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 Recently the Al Jazeera English has been replaced with the Arabic version on Sophon. I have tried ringing Sophon, but can't get a reply. Anyone got an idea what is happening and when we can expect to get the English back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plus7 Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 Hi, I think it is a mistake on Al Jazeera site. They incorrectly identify your location by IP range of Sophon. That's why it make only happen on Sophon, but not on DTACT, for example. Take a close look at the website and switch to English version manually. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bendejo Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 Have you tried a re-scan of channels? Sometimes they add things, move them around, etc. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PPGuy Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 If you can access youtube on your TV there is an 'Al Jazeera English Live' channel available, along with a number of other foreign news channels broadcast in english - DW / France 24, etc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacko45k Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 I just went to my Al Jazeera channel on Sophon and it is in English. Channel 807 digital. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guderian Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 You can always subscribe to the Al Jazeera English news channel on YouTube for free, assuming you've got a smart TV. It's exactly the same as what Sophon shows, there's a very short advert when you start watching but that's all. Paid for by the Qatar government. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRUNCHER Posted October 16, 2022 Author Share Posted October 16, 2022 Thanks for all your replies. I re tuned my TV multiple times, but no luck on either digital or analogue. I am now going with YouTube, which works fine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
