anyone with a Tandberg powerVU?

id like one lol but its pointless.

You also need to know the key or have a way of finding it.

I recall you could at one time purchase a powervu decoder which had been activated for AFN for various periods.

with this box is possible view T2-MI and ACM/stream frequencies ?

I don't believe that.
As someone said, there must be keys too.

i too would like to buy

the serial number of the box would need to be in the allowed list by the service provider and then you would also need the keys

Also most feeds now are in DVB-S2 The cheap powervu receivers are S1. An S2 one still goes for thousands. They will only come down in price when they are less useful, I.E DVB-S-3/NS-3 becomes the standard

We don't even know how to find the keys for a feed encrypted in Tandberg. I think it's useless to own one. Or is it possible to find the key but doesn't just work with normal receivers?

powervu isnt tandberg its sci atlanta.... the tandberg feeds are director.
powervu feeds are few and far between in europe with s.i.s, fight network ect. powervu doesnt have keys as such its ota addressable from what i can gather. i have a d9223 pulled from a bookies but no longer active or working now either. dont waste your money. there are cheap dvbs mpeg 2 rack recievers on e*** all the time alot with b*** included that are worth a shot for tests using b*** but as stated a dvbs2 capable one would be thousands. regards mdt

Powervu and Tandberg were both bought by cisco. Director was developed from the Powervu system.

ok so to where to buy these expensive dvb-s2 powervu box ;-)

PowerVu management keys has been hacked


(....Abstract
In my previous paper the "Cryptanalysis of PowerVu
television broadcast encryption" [1] I have
described how it was possible find out the ECM key that can decrypt the video & audio DES keys.
For this old hack a security chip was necessary that had
valid keys inside. A special hacking
hardware (for the old timing and the new key change interruption attack) was necessary also.
For the new hack the security chip isn't needed. A self build hacking hardware isn't needed too.
As hardware only a DVB-S2 card
and a graphic card that supports CUDA is needed.
To find some management keys it has taken me one day (GeForce GTX 470). A slower card need
more time.
It's a brute fore attack on the EMMs, but because of multiple security flaws in the PowerVu system
it isn't necessary to test the full 56 bit key space
to find a key....)
