Watch TV on your PC

2010-11-20T07:10:00.000-08:00

As the economical measures that the governments are taking and the unsafe state of our personal economics, most people are trying to cut back on the money they spend from wherever they can. If we take into consideration the fact that cable and satellite television are fairly expensive nowadays, if we include premium channels, a monthly subscription can cost up to 150$. This is why most of the people are spending a lot on them but what if there was another way to enjoy these tv channels and many more you do not find on the list of the regular cable distributors and not pay a monthly bill?

If you want to get rid of those monthly subscriptions and still have access to your favorite national and international tv programs then we have the solution for you: Satellite Direct, a TV on PC software that will guarantee to satisfy your every demand. It has dozens of channels and you will not be surprised to find out that you pay more and more on your cable bill because you only pay for it once. It costs less than you pay for 1 month of cable and you can enjoy your favorite movies from your laptop or desktop.

2010-09-04T17:49:00.000-07:00

Totalfta stole my money 200$ plus fee, do not send them any money, they never ship you. These are criminal fraudsters in quebec, they think they can get away with this. Call your local police, spread the word through the internet, I lost my money, They are promising to issue a e-mail within 48 hours of payment. I have send so many e-mail to them. But no reply. I think this is a rip off from totalfta.com. Looks like I lost $199. I suggest other members to watch this site I dont' want the same to happen to you.

Totalfta.com is a criminal fraud organization that steals your money when you send it by western union that is your only option, may they rot in hell.

FTA, a lost cause

2010-07-13T16:50:00.000-07:00

It has been well over a year since the N3 took over. Apparently the only receivers working are the one's that use IKS. We all know that the Free to Air Community (FTA) has been hit with a big obstacle. Nagravision 3 encryption; it's down and it probably won't be coming back anytime soon
So what do you do now? You're left looking at a blank screen or using a TV antenna to get 1 or 2 local channels? If that satisfies you then that's what you should do. You could resort to IKS? But that is an option that many people are staying away from due to privacy issues.
So you're now left in the dark, bored, and wanting to or simply can't afford to pay any monthly cable bills or satellite bills? I know exactly what your are talking about.

How ever, you can still get free TV. Last year when my receiver went down. I started watching internet TV. If you have one of those new TV's with a VGA input. Just hook up your PC. I now have a PC TV. All the TV I watch is through the internet. I use websites like HULU.com, Netflix,etc.... all most all the networks have streaming video. Just Google what you want to watch and I am sure you will find it.

New Technology called IKS

2010-06-18T13:47:00.001-07:00

Using a new technology called IKS, your receiver can now take advantage of receiving access to all channels including movies, sports, pay per views, adult and more, just like it did before! In order to keep up with the costs associated with running this type of service, we have been forced to once again close our discussion forums to free members, and only grant access to those who have purchased a premium membership. Moreso, we have now decided to begin selling this auxilary devices in order to bring in some very much needed money to help with all our hard work. This is pretty much going to be the future of FTA as far as we can foresee.

This new technology has actually been around for several months and has been in the process of being tested and perfected by our team prior this decision we have made to endorse the type of product. There are several models made for each of the major manufacturers (Viewsat, Sonicview, nFusion, Conaxsat, CaptiveWorks, Coolsat, Neosat, Pansat, and Fortec) that work at the current time, and require nothing more than plugging the device into the back of the receiver and then into your internet connection. It then syncs up with offshore servers private which provide it with the data necessary to open up the channel you wish to watch. This is not the same thing as regular IKS because it uses custom algorithms and software that allow it to function reliably. It also uses a special device to access our network under encryption for security reasons and.

This is a very good solution which works just great and allows your to receive the majority of Nagra 3 channels and it's just getting better!

To get started you'll need both a Universal IKS DONGLE and a PLATINUM MEMBERSHIP (unforunately premium members will also have to pay full price for this new package as the costs of running it are too high for us to offset.) We have several different product purchase options:

1) IKS Dongle & Platinum Membership Combo - $200.00 USD/CAD - just plug it into the back of your receiver and use the on screen menu to configure it easily and hassle free - free shipping included. Memebership is for lifetime.

2) Sonicview 360 Elite with IKS Dongle & Platinum Membership Combo - $300.00 USD/CAD - Get a brand new Sonicview 360 Elite with IKS Dongle preconfigured and a lifetime premium membership. Free shipping included.

Viewsat & Pansat

2010-01-01T13:05:00.000-08:00

The roomer is that Viewsat and Pansat has anounced their own FTA FILES for N3, but have not anounced details yet, rumor has it, only the newer models to support USB will be Nagra 3 compatible. Coolsat has also mentioned the same thing.

How much could someone get for a N3 crack

2009-12-16T07:23:00.000-08:00

Roomer has it that Viewsat paid $250000 to $750000 for the map57 fix. But we are all still waiting...

NagraVision 3 (N3)

2009-12-01T11:11:00.000-08:00

The Nagravision is basicly a code used for satellite companies that broadcast fee based television programming. Due to the fact that broadcasts can be picked up by almost anyone with a satellite dish, broadcasts are encoded, so that non paying customers can not view programming.

The roomer is that some boxes are able to view some channels encrypted using Nagravision 3 through a technique called "card sharing" whereby the encryption status of an existing paid subscriber card is disseminated to other receivers through the use of a networked connection. Many hackers in the underground FTA testing community are working hard to further crack this security implementation as they have done in the recent past with Nagravision 2. Current underground projects are limited to channels which can be subscribed to. Channels that are not available for subscription such as Special Events and Pay-Per-View programming have so far remained unavailable.

Telefonica Satellite

While you wait for the N3 crack to come out, you can still watch TV on telefonica.

Viewsat Pro Stuck on Boot.

2009-11-03T16:42:00.000-08:00

Viewsat Pro Stuck on Boot.

The Fix was:

Open your FTA Viewsat Receiver You will see 2 circuit boards. Look at the Power Supply Board. You will see 2 capacitors C12 1000uf 10 V and C62 100uf 50 volt, look at them closely and you will see if they are likely to be bumped up, on the top.
After replacing those 2 capacitors, My receiver worked just fine.
Now you will need basic soldering skills to do this and you can pick up the capacitors at your locale RadioShaq.

What is Free To Air?

2009-10-22T16:33:00.001-07:00

A Free to Air Satellite receiver (abbreviated FTA receivers) refers to satellite receivers that are designed to receive unencrypted FTA satellite transmissions. Using these satellite receivers, one can legally receive TV signals without subscription. The signal is typically encoded in an MPEG-2 video and may be restricted geographically. In some places around the world, people can receive encrypted Free to Air satellite channels through the UHF and VHF band.

Free to Air

2009-10-22T16:18:00.000-07:00

Have you ever heard the term FTA ( Free to Ait) Free-to-air (FTA) television (TV) and radio broadcasts are sent unencrypted and may be received via any suitable receiver:Free-to-view (FTV) is, generally, available without subscription but is digitally encrypted and may be restricted geographically. Neither of these is pay-TV, which is an encrypted subscription (or pay-per-view) service.

FTA is sometimes delivered by satellite television, but in various parts of the world free-to-air television channels are broadcast unencrypted on UHF or VHF bands.

Total FTA use to be a popular Free to Air Forum, where end-users could discuss about new FTA Receivers as well as download the latest FTA Files. Unfortunately, the average FTA Satellite end-user got tired of going to the FTA Forum, having to register, and then having to browse through countless posts simply to find the FTA File they need for their FTA Receiver. Which is why many people have stopped visiting FTA Forums, such as Total FTA, FTA Talk or FTA forall. They simply prefer visiting a no strings attached website, such as this one, and be able to find their FTA Files right on the homepage. No registration required, so everyone can get the same top notch service, For FREE.
