For Sale<br />Privately owned EX-TARBS MDS Box. Disabled for viewing by UBI. Will sell cheaply to anyone prepared to use it for Piracy so I can get the ****ers back for disabling it <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/default/wink.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/default/grin.gif" />

What bothers me about all this fuss is two matters, one is You must have read the warnings about the boxes being shut off. We know your not on the UBI data base or is it a case that you knew this and deliberately pushed the issue.<br />The Other is I have been reading many threads and I observed that yourself and Vlad are friends and you have been over Phils place a few times. Did you bother to ring Phil and ask his opinion first? and maybe Phil can pull a few strings to get your box turned on again but not to be put on a UBI transponder ever again. Mind you all this agro is not needed or maybe you are not talking to Phil anymore or maybe after this Phil will not talk to you any more. YU4CFG You went about this the wrong way, arrogance never solves anything.<br />From what I know about this Mentor system because I was told by another member that hacks them and is found frequently on the Austech forum in the mile long TARBS thread, the mentor system sends commands down the data stream to any UBI box thats on a UBI transponders and if that box is not on the UBI database it gets locked out. Its one out or all out policy, you must be in their data base otherwise your box will be locked out, thats it.<br />I know another member that back in the early days had his box unlocked but with no contract only to be locked again 6 days later. The system is automatic, it can't pick YU4CFG's box, its simple you are in the database or you're out. If you want to find someone to blame YU4CFG, blame the Pirates for this mess and living in Melbourne I don't have to tell you what nationality the biggest pirates are.<br />And this mob dessimated TARBS/Foxtel years ago and now the same mob are doing TVPlus/foxtel as a package for under $40 per month.<br />These people doing the sharing between themselves as long as no money changes hands for friend and family members, good luck to them but I despise the sellers selling something thats not theirs, thats not on.<br /> <br /> <small>[ 04.

YU4CFG,<br /><br />UBI will not enable yours or anyone elses IRD unless your subscriber. I've stated this many times and this has been UBI policy for awhile.<br /><br />You don't need to threaten with "I'll do my best to get even"<br /><br />You can either get a FTA decoder or if you really want to get legal advise go to your Consumer Affairs Department.<br /> <br /> <small>[ 04.

YU4CFG can't you just get UBI to send you out a contract for the greek channel while it's FTA and then just not subscribe when it encrypts?

Lisky,<br /> Why ubi disables ex tarbs boxes ?

If the IRD and SmartCard number from the TARBS decoder isn't in a contract then it will get disabled. This is automatically done by the system.<br /><br />It's been said many times - the TARBS decoder isn't a FTA decoder. It has a Serial, SSN and is already married to the SmartCard hence it will get disabled when trying to access the UBI system.<br /> <br /> <small>[ 04.

Liski,<br /><br />That is OK what are you saying, but what is strange to me is the fact that my box went wrong few times before, due to power failure, being unplugged from the power point or similar issue, and every time I was able, and i was advised from UBI to give them a call now and they will resend the signal so i can watch FTA channels. Now suddenly i can not do it anymore since UBI has encrypted Balkan package. And what REUDER is saying, i could go and say can you re-send me the signal again as i am waiting for the Greek package to be completed and before it is encrypted and UBI would do that. For me, this means that UBI is forcing users to sign the contract before the package is finalized and completed. There is not even one Serb channel as yet, therefore there is no chance that i or someone else would subscribe and pay $60 dollars for one channel HAYAT tv( which you can not call TV station, no movies, no sport, no decent music, no nothing and they hate Serbs more than Karla del Ponte) and other two channels as someone said before, i don't understand Macedonian or Bulgarian, you can include some Turkish channels in the package as well and it would change anything as Serbs do not understand these languages. I will subscribe as soon as Balkan package is completed and UBI brings some Serbian channels. Lets just be honest. I understand you and other who works for UBI - it is normal that you would encourage people to sign in as you would probably get some kind of reword, i work for IT company myself, and if i do something and if result of that is that my company signs a new contract with someone i get reworded as well.<br /><br />I am just confused how something can be done before package is encrypted and can not be done after it is encrypted - something’s wrong here – I feel being “forced” to subscribe here, even though I am not happy with the package as it is not completed. Maybe I am wrong here, who know.<br /><br /><br />It’s just my opinion……

I forgot to say, my box is not modified, it is legally bought off the TARBS company as a part of the deal (cheaper subscription).

Tuppelo,<br /><br />No one is forcing you to join UBI. If you don't want to join right now then wait for the rest of the package and then subscribe.<br /><br />Plantea, MKTV and NTV Hayat have been FTA way to long so it was time to encrypt them to get ready for the rest of the channels.<br /><br />You could try to call UBI and get registered for the Greek package but if your IRD was already registered for the Balkan preview I highly doubt they will renable it for you.<br /><br />IF YOU DO NOT WANT YOUR IRD DISABLED DO NOT TUNE IT TO A UBI FREQ!

My car is ex cop car..I bought at the auction<br />It was recorded on police system..<br />Because it was in the police system does that mean they can tow it away, or they can take back my car anytime? Even if I'm the owner.<br />Liski,<br />People paid for that boxes who gives a F..k they are still in the UBI system.

mr_mixer,<br /><br />If you read through this thread you will get your answer.<br /><br />I'm no longer going to respond in regards to this topic.<br /><br /><br />Bye,<br />Liski<br /> <br /> <small>[ 04. September 2005, 05:42 PM: Message edited by: LISKI iTV ]</small>

tuppelo i dont know what you are on about, i know quite a few subscribers who have signed up for balkan with hayat

There is no doubt about this mess you cannot reason with you all, you have been told to many times why this is happening and you all just keep this shit on and on. I have explained it and i'm not bothering to answer it finished. No use educating people that don't want to listed to whats been posted days to months ago.

Phil maybe close the topic?

Not Serbs alcatron!!!<br /><br />And Liski agreed with me saying that if I say I am waiting for Greek package UBI will send me a signal. I am not being forced directly but indirectly this way. I will not subscribe as yet, I will wait until package is completed. I will try to give them a call and ask about Greek package and see if they wanna send me a signal.

I don't know why people still want to get the box enabled when the IRD is not designed to work properly on other FTA platforms..<br /><br />Either sell it off and purchase a TRUE FTA box (there's heaps of people wanting to buy one) or hold on to it until you are satisfied with package..

Thread close and so is my email address

The topic has been closed but I feel a need to apologise to my mate Phil because it was never my intention to cause him any problems.<br /><br />Some members were wondering if we're friends and why I didn't ask Phil to fix my box?<br />Answer is simple; I just didn't like to bother him with that. (and I was bothering him with some other things at the time) <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/default/wink.gif" /> I wanted U.B.I. to solve the problem. Phil helped me as well as he helped other people many times (some of them he has never seen) and he never asked for anything in return.<br />As a true friend, he called me and offered his help.<br /> Edited by Phil as this if the final time I'm sick of the non believers in these forums, sick of repeating why these boxes get shut off. .<br /><br />Once again, sorry mate, I'll see you tomorrow<br /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/default/smile.gif" /><br /> <br /> <small>[ 05.
