Lazer has and a lot of people have. I do know the UBI Installers are doing it by areas.

My guess is this roll-out will go well into June. Just hope MDS isn't turned off until records show that all existing members have been upgraded.

RATLSNAKE,<br /><br />That has always been stated - IR2 will be switched on once all subscribers have been upraded which should be by mid June.<br /><br />The first of new customers have been installed with the new STB today and subscribers will be started to be upgraded from wed/thurs this week.

Which might be why UBI is currently FTA

yes Liski, I think you should inform everyone that ubi will stay FTA till the installations are completed.<br /><br />Otherwise, infamous dishonest installers would sell FTA receivers to poor old immigrants for UBI.

There might be a scroll soon I'm not really sure. At least customers now know that the UBI STB has the UBI logo on it.

Further to that the Mike B promo did advise people not to let anyone without UBI ID to change or give you a different STB.

ubi ceo shoewed the new box on Vizyon. it's silver with a blue window in front. there is a huge ubi logo on the left hand side. it's also blue. and one blind two card slots on the right.

he said they bought 50000 boxes and paid $8 million for the IR2 update.

Yep

He also announced plans for EuroStar (Star TV Turkey) coming to UBI.

Just got my box much smaller box then the tarbs box <br /><br /> []http://www.geocities.com/colossos83/ubibox1.JPG[/] <br /> []http://www.geocities.com/colossos83/ubiremote1.JPG[/]

looks nice, i still havent received a call

Don't worry I havent either, I hope I dont miss out as I have left it till the very last day registered on 28 April (Friday)

Alcatron,<br /><br />They haven't started calling SA yet. NSW was Tuesday and VIC start being called tomorrow with the other states to follow.<br /><br />Dan04,<br /><br />You won't miss out.

[]Don't worry I havent either, I hope I dont miss out as I have left it till the very last day registered on 28 April (Friday) [/]<br /><br />Hi there,<br /><br />Dan04! are you having both WMI and UBI? :hmm<br />Do you need a UBI receiver? can't you just plug UBI smart card in any IRDETO2 receiver?<br /><br />Cheers

I'm going to suspend my service with WMI soon.<br /><br />They wont sell a sub without a UBI box.

UBI WORLD TV does not sell a SmartCard only service.

[]he said they bought 50000 boxes and paid $8 million for the IR2 update. [/]<br /><br />Oh dear if they seriously bought 50000 units then that is a rediculous waste of money. 5000 yes fine. but 50000? does anyone think UBI has anything approaching even 5000 subs?<br /><br />we know how long it took for the old Tarbs to reach 50000 subs. I guess you could buy that many and write them off for tax purposes when they depreciate in value....

Where'd my post go????<br /><br />All I asked was whether the box can do FTA channels as well as UBI channels???<br /><br />I thought this forum wasn't going to be unnecessarily censored like in the past?<br /><br />RATLSNAKE

What post are you talking about i never saw it?<br /><br />And i think Liski has answered that question to you a few times already

Before apsattv's last post, a little while ago I posted a question directed to you, asking if you could confirm whether the new box can also do FTA channels, because I'm interested in knowing whether I'll be able to use it to watch ERT SAT too.<br /><br />I come back to see if there's an answer and my post is gone. :(<br /><br />And yes, Liski did state a while back that it would, but couldn't confirm it that early stage, and I figured you've got one now, so you could confirm it for us.

are you sure you posted it as apsattv just posted before you i never saw anything as the page gets refreshed a few times i never saw your post...<br /><br />anyway i havent tried yet stil playing around with it when i work out how to use it ill try it then

[]UBI WORLD TV does not sell a SmartCard only service. [/]<br /><br />Do you call this ugly box service?<br /><br />Cheers

RATLSNAKE,<br /><br />The UBI STB will be able to do FTA, you can add up to 5 more settings. It won't work while the UBI signal is uncrypted for some reason. You currently need to disable the UBI home network (Signal Setup - Home). So once we go IR2 the STB will show UBI and any other service you have entered but those will show on CH500 and above.<br /><br />Any other questions please let me know.<br /><br />apsattv,<br /><br />You make me laugh. UBI has much more then 5000 subs.<br /><br />Captain,<br /><br />If you have nothing constructive to post then please don't bother.

One of my customers that has UBI will be using his Dreambox as the both of us have read on other forums outside Australian that the new V5 UBI cards will work with the new softcams and as he explained if he is getting Hummmmm, Hummmmmm for nothing in OZ via card sharing you also can use a legit UBI card in one of the two slots available on the dreambox 7000.

jaremt,<br /><br />You might be correct but UBI can activate a stream that will stop that.

Liski do you realy belive in what you are talking.You didn't learn anything.What kind of political school you finished.

Gizmo,<br /><br />Do you think that every STB out there will be able to get the updates that UBI will be sending out? Have you read the problems people trying to use any Irdeto2 STB with SelecTV?

Liski if you know the problem it is not the STB problem but software on what it is working. TARBS and UBI can not fight MDS hacking and you think having proper box with good software will change the position of UBI. If yes you are true UBI dedicated beliver or man without ay knowledge ( you are visiting so many forums and you dont understand anything). You shoud finish your UBI indoctrination.

Gizmo its not just changing the BOX as you say but the whole Encryption system is being changed <br /><br />Maybe you dont understand what you are reading on all forums....

Another true beliver.<br /><br />Guys asking your questions. Don't do it.<br /><br />The answers always will be:<br /><br />1. No<br /><br />2. Not<br /><br />3. It can't be done<br /><br />4. UBI will fight all your acts<br /><br />5. UBI is the best, the best, the best

Yet another Smart one on here.... :: :thinking<br /><br />Believe what you wish Mr Gizmo you seem to know it all anyway....

Gizmo,<br /><br />You make me laugh - your saying I have no knowledge? Do you actually know how to read and understand what is written? Have you been following the news about the STB Upgrade? UBI aren't simply changing the STB but switching off the MDS system and moving to Irdeto2.<br /><br />Maybe your simply here as your upset that your going to loose your UBI pirated service :(<br /><br />I’m here to help people with actual questions regarding UBI and not to bother wasting my time with someone with only 12 posts that simply doesn't know how to read and understanding what UBI is currently doing..

Just a couple of observations ....<br /><br />(1) We are seeing much fewer problem with card only than we anticipated.<br /><br />(2) Irdeto 2 with an Epsilon card is a much more secure system than MDS. The Epsilon cards also have many, many more options for coutermeasures than the earlier version so Liski's confidence is not mispleaced.<br /><br />This is a good choice for UBI, because piracy hurts everyone.

[]jaremt,<br /><br />You might be correct but UBI can activate a stream that will stop that. [/]<br /> Stop what?<br />All I said is that you can use a legit UBI Irdeto 2 V5 card in a dreambox and you will have pictures, and UBI can switch what they want and you will never stop a Genuine customer using a dreambox to watch his channels and for the piracy side of thing only a super fool thinks that the dreambox cant get around any encryption around the world, look at the almighty NDS the dreambox makes a meal out of that and all it needed was an updated softcam

Did they start delivering the new box in Melbourne Western suburbs (go the bulldogs)?<br />Liski, could you be more precise? What do you tell the installer if the old box is yours and you don't want to give it back? Do you have to sign anything? I assume 90% of the subscriber own their boxes.<br />I hope that the swap takes place with no glitches, because if my wife misses one episode of her soap on TV Globo I'm in trouble...<br />Thanks

jarmet,<br /><br />If you think you can go ahead and use it - if you encounter any problems don't expect UBI to help you.

mule,<br /><br />I believe some parts of Melbourne will be called today to schedule an appointment.<br /><br />If you wish to keep the TARBS STB simply advise the Tech and he will tick the appropriate box on the Service Order and have you sign it.<br /><br />There shouldn't be any problems.

Liski and again if you don't know how to answer you are accusing people of pirating UBI service (never got TARBS or UBI service official or pirated. Is it something wrong if I got only 12 posts. By the way we all know UBI is not to help us, UBI is to remove money from the pockets
