Peacock still broken (Server not found)

flylow+

For what it's worth, Streamfab support finally replied to my support ticket today and said they have recorded the problem and will solve it as soon as possible based on the information.

I'm not sure of the relevance, on several Peacock downloads that moved excruciatingly slowly, I went in to Settings->Preferences, and changed the Video Resolution to "HD - 720p" and the download went at normal speed and the resulting file was still 1080p. It made me wonder if the quality tags used in the manifest files have been changed and StreamFab hasn't matched them yet.

Maybe we will find out more if/when @Wilson.Wang replies. But for now all we can do is wait and see if it is fixed in one of the future releases.

Still broken in 6.1.9.5 for me, YMMV.

No mention it was resolved in the changelog but just to be certain I did a clean install and the issue persists on at least 2, perhaps more, MSNBC shows. Would be awesome if the folks at DVDfab cared enough to post a known issues thread just to let us know a bit more about what is going on...

I sadly gave up hope of a fix, anytime soon. They closed the other topic and they seem to be ignoring this one even with numerous logs of the same issue.
And no one posting the logs are using a VPN, the big answer to why is because we are all in USA so no need or reason for VPN use with Peacock.
And again as stated before some shows and most movies work, it seems to be newer added seasons as one show I was able to get season 1 but 2 and 3 started erroring out.
And almost always can be recreated if tried on stuff from the MSNBC section, but also to name some specific shows, just search Peacock for 'on patrol'. There are 2 and both have issues as u get to season 3 and sometimes season 2 and late season 1.

NO attempt to address the issue in 94 or now in new 95. But what else can be expected.

I'm still hoping @Wilson.Wang will be considerate enough to try to find out and then let us know if the developer is actually working on it or perhaps planning to work on it in the future. Perhaps, dunno, it is something the developer cannot resolve. Would be nice if they let us know instead of keeping us in the dark.

Still fails, posting the log file. StreamFab.zip
Have to compress the log file as it is too large.

I have no issues at all with shows/movies on Paramount+. Hulu, Amazon, Tubi, Pluto and so on. I have not subscribed to apple+ or netflix for quite awhile.

Most shows on Peacock seem to download successfully for me on the first attempt except, mainly, the MSNBC shows. Example Morning Joe downloads might succeed on the first try or not. Sometimes it takes 2 or 3 tries to succeed while other times downloads of the MSNBC shows fail even at over a dozen retries.

As was discussed in the thread that was closed by @Wilson.Wang it seems that it might depend on geographical location as some report no issues at all. Issue started in 6.1.9.0 for me. Peacock is only available US only but some US residents seem to only be able to successfully download if they use a VPN and connect to Boston. IMO US Peacock subscribers should be able to successfully download the MSNBC and a few other shows without using a proxy or a VPN. One member insisted using a proxy was necessary for Peacock.

For what it's worth, Streamfab support finally replied to my support ticket a few days ago and said they have recorded the problem and will solve it as soon as possible based on the information.

The most frustrating part for me, I expect issues from time to time with this type of software, is trying to find out what, if anything, can or will be done, for those of us in the USA experiencing the issue.

Advice, so far, from support is to repeat to delete the log and temp files and to to do a clean uninstall and install. which has not, despite numerous tries, done anything to resolve the issue. Maybe it's something they can't fix. dunno

Hi,

I will ask the dev to check the problem again.

And the video should be downloaded if you can play back the video in your PC browser in the same network connection.

Usually fails many times when trying to download in Streamfab, sometimes succeeds after 2 or three tries. Sometimes it continues to fail at over a dozen tries.

Mostly the MSNBC shows on Peacock but have experienced it with some other, but only a few other, shows. Most shows on Peacock download successfully on the first try.

No issues watching in Chrome or Firefox. Have not tried in Edge.

@Wilson.Wang

They just replied to my support ticket and said they are working on it.

IMO they definitely need to something to improve communication. Gets frustrating as it seems as though I might as well be talking to a fence post...

I'm having an issue with Peacock also. Analyzes for a little, then says failed, error 310????
Was wokring fine yesterday

acasco

My issue is similar, I'm getting an error 310 when attempting to download. Was working ok yesterday. Using SF 6.1.9.5

@Wilson.Wang

Now getting error 310 from both Peacock and Paramount+. Seems to be a new issue.

I just downloaded Field of Dreams, The Killer, The Bikeriders using 6.1.9.5. No issues beyond download is kind of slow (7-8 KB/s, I have 1gbps internet, other services give me much higher download rates)

I'm in USA (east coast), no vpn, no proxy, etc. Just plain comcast internet and their DNS.

I have American Ninja Warrior S16, and Kung Fu Panda that I'm about to start, I'll reply later with how they make out.

Field of Dreams was successful on the first try. Both The Killer and The Bikeriders failed for me on the first try, did not try them again.

Also tried Morning Joe Episode 170 and it failed with multiple retries.

Issue still, as previously reported, seems to depend on location.

Glad the reply to my support ticket yesterday said they are working on this issue that some, but not all, are experiencing.

No issues beyond download is kind of slow (7-8 KB/s, I have 1gbps internet, other services give me much higher download rates)

I'm in USA (east coast), no vpn, no proxy, etc. Just plain comcast internet and their DNS.

I, too, am in the USA (east coast, eastern Pennsylvania to be exact) and use Comcast/Xfinity 800mb/s Internet. The difference being that without a VPN, I would never connect to download a Peacock video. I would get a few kb/s displayed, but it would remain at 0% and 0 segments downloaded. If I walk away from it for a while, it will eventually display a red "Failed".
I have previously used Cloudflare DNS as a primary and a Quad9 DNS as my secondary. These were set on my router, and my computer uses the router as the DNS.
About 2 weeks into this problem, I decided to change out my DNS as an experiment. I went with the Boston Comcast/Xfinity DNS as my primary (since I had great luck VPNing into Boston) and Control-D as my secondary. Control-D is the DNS side of WindScribe, my VPN company. It did not fix the problem.
Since you had good results with your standard Comcast/Xfinity DNS, I am about to try something I don't want to do, and that is using the DHCP assigned Comcast/Xfinity DNS. I really do not want to provide Comcast with additional information, although I've already done that with the Boston DNS. I'll let you know how it goes.
The other idea I was thinking of trying was to make Control-D my primary and use the DNS address that specifically blocks ads, tracking, malware and social networks. Then I would be able to remove the uBlock Origin Lite extension from my browsers and I would still have blocking even covering the StreamFab CEF browser. I'm pretty sure it probably won't fix the Peacock problem, but it should be done anyway because of the change to MV3 by Google. uBlock Origin Lite is not as effective as the MV2 non-Lite version. Blocking by DNS should work better.

Morning Joe Episode 170 finally succeeded. I tried about a dozen time then gave up for awhile. About 15 minutes later I tried again and succeeded after about another 8 or 9 times.retries.

In reference to my Message # 38, both of my DNS experiments failed after numerous tries. It's back to VPNing to Boston for me. I don't understand why it works, but it works every time for me.
