Browser stopped working for Bell TV Fibe

My tv is through bell fibe, it used to work in previous versions, but now every channel is showing
Error
Off air. (1008a)
https://tv.bell.ca/
Vivaldi 2.4.1488.38 (Stable channel) (64-bit)

@sahands sorry for the trouble and thanks for reaching out. Vivaldi's most recent version is actually: 2.4.1488.40
Please update Vivaldi browser and let us know if it's working again. If you use any extensions, please disable them cause they could cause some issue as well.

@gaelle "you're up to date! Vivaldi 2.4.1488.38 is currently the newest version available."

That was the "Mac Only" update.
Same as .38 for Windows and Linux.

Used to use Fibe but now am on Satellite and am getting the same error.
Recognizes my account and devices but no programming and same error message.

Works with FF.

Edge & IE

"Your browser does not support the Fibe TV app.

I suspect from an old Microsoft post that this is a Bell issue but they mention Flash. Does anyone still use that?
Also just because they say they support "Chrome" does not mean they support a Chromium build with all the updates.
You may have to be patient until Bell catches up.

My Fibe TV app on my old iPad2 also works fine.

Not sure where this leaves us... At the mercy of Bell??

Well it's not Bell who's at fault, it's purely vivaldi, as I said, it used to work in vivaldi before the new release.

Which strongly suggests the website is blocking based on UA detection.

I am having this exact problem....works in Chrome, just not Vivaldi. Was there ever a resolution to this? must be a setting?

[EDIT] At least it will work until tomorrow (Nov, 1th) as the iOS cannot be updated and it will probably burst into flames because it can no longer tell the time and think I am halfway around the world.
