MultiChoice losing a fortune to Zimbabwe piracy

Digital satellite television company MultiChoice could be losing revenue running into hundreds of thousands of dollars a year as Magic Box - a free-to-air satellite receiver that can pirate DStv signals - is becoming popular in Zimbabwe. Magic Box broadcasts MultiChoice's DStv channels through intercepting satellite signals provided to genuine Multichoice subscribers. But MultiChoice Zimbabwe is not aware of the new craze.

"I am not aware of this development. I will consult with our technical team and find out what is happening," said Elizabeth Dziva, MultiChoice Zimbabwe public relations manager. Satellite decoder dealers say the Magic Box has been around since early last year, selling for an average of 120, and one can access the full bouquet without any interruption. The DStv full bouquet costs $73 a month.

"We buy the decoders from Dubai and China, but there are some cheaper ones coming from Botswana," said a satellite installer. Those that are coming from Botswana are a result of a massive campaign by Botswana's MultiChoice to block Magic Box from pirating the signal early this year.

Billy Sekgororoane, general manager for MultiChoice Botswana, was quoted in the Botswana press as saying MultiChoice was aware of Magic Box's existence and they are working on a way to deal with it.

"We are very much aware of these new decoders; we have actually been following it for some time now," Sekgororoane said. Dealers say for the decoders to intercept the signal they use two satellite dishes facing each other. The biggest loser in this new craze could be the Zimbabwe Broadcasting Corporation, which is also accessed through DStv. Locals are refusing to pay their television licences, leaving the state broadcaster with revenue from DStv. But with DStv accessed by many for free, there will be less revenue.

Zimbabwe is already one of world’s worst offenders for TV signal piracy, with an estimated 92 percent of homes using local decoders to view South African signals, in particular those of SABC.

Rextab: i dnt have 105, foward it to terinorextab@yahoo.com

What I noted when I was experimenting with different software versions for SRT 4669X was that same versions for Middle East and Africa had different options. Version 108 for Middle East or (ALL) might not have the option for IP Settings while 108 for MyTV could have that option. Version 107 is here: http://www.sat-universe.com/showthread.php?t=75480&page=7
and Version 109 is here: http://www.sat-universe.com/showthread.php?t=75480&page=11, Version 108 is here: http://www.sat-universe.com/showthread.php?t=75480&page=9 or http://www.satfriends.com/showthread.php/4956-Strong-Firmware/page40
Remember that there are different versions on each page and you need to try ALL. I dont have 4669x to try and give you the exact software version.

Rextab: if its got the IP settings it can,im hunting for 105, do u have it?

The last time I tried it was freeezing...try it and tell me if it works.

swordswifter: Hi Pidzo,
Are you talking about the sabc on intelsat 902 C-band and if no, on which satellite are they located and are these autoroll keys for Nagra 3?
Thanks

I am talking about SABC on Intelsat 7/10 and the autoroll is for Nagra 1 (Sabc has not yet migrated to Nagra 3 but Etv is on Nagra 3)

Dapbright500: Thanks for creating this thread...i own a srt 4663 decoder,i try to upgrade it with a software i got from crosat.us through dis forum (nairaland). I follow d info by putting d software inside a flash drive dat is free of virus,after d upgrade my decoder went off and since then it will only show as if it want to come up but won't ...so i need help on what i can do,u can reach me on 07069438347 or dapbright@yahoo.com.Thanks in advance.

4663x is a fake product (if you bought one recently) and you surely updated it with original software (which kills it). Try receiver to receiver upgrade and see if it helps.
WARNING: All those with 4663X and similar models avoid upgrades as chances are very high you have a FAKE product and you will end up putting your receiver on the death bed.

fahrye: please help me with PAS 7/10-K codes fo free to air channels i deleted my chanels by mistake

Which model are you using?

Rextab: thnks it workd. I nid some more help, wic software version of 69x has internet settings??

I have responded in the other thread..

auchs: Whenever I show up on this thread, its becomes time to read stories instead of live football announcement that it supposed to be. Why cant we organise and make live easy for ourselves. If you have question on how to track a live football tv channel etc you can go to the general thread for answer or question. People that answer questions here are also culprits. Viva.

Well said. No more decency in this thread. Somebody activated the 'DIGRESSION' clause and people are following it to the letter. Pity.

Rextab: hello guys, wic software version of 4669x has internet settings?

There is version 108 or 109 (or something like that) that has this option. Tell me when you download and load this I want to ask you something.

MyHiDsDaar: peeps keep mentioning sabc 1 etc, are the channels now fta for sub saharan africa, the last time i checked that was abt a year or 2 ago the three channels were all encrypted, what is their status currently

I cant answer for SubSaharan Africa coz I dont get that beam. For Southern Africa they are not 'TOTAL' FTA, they are encrypted in Nagravision and most receivers here have autoroll bin which opens these. In short they are like FTA here in Southern Africa.

hotandholy: Dont quot yourself wrong once you change the ice in ur avater,its no more avater but strong 5000 fta.,avater sycon company never support the ideal of opening ur box and change ice.dats is d reason dey introduce pairing of avater becos strong 5000 is taking charge of d market 4rm them.so now instead of selling ice to you,they put the ice inside the rs232 so u wont bother to open ur box becos dey dnt want u to open it and cos damage to it.howevr,the original cable has eight month waranty.

Mavella: How to comfirm that my strong srt 4663x is original

I dont know when you bought your receiver because SRT 4663X is a discontinued model which means Strong Technologies no longer produces these receivers. In other words, ALL recent and new SRT4663X receivers being bought are FAKE.
See: http://www.strong-technologies.com/frmProducts.aspx?catID=36

Rextab: hey guys, aftr loadin software srt 69x via usb it jst shows --- how do i repair it or revive it bck 2life?

Download a Strong loader and load your software using PC via RS-232c crossed cable.
