      I don’t use IPTV though, you have to pay a monthly fee to use, I just bought a satellite decoder and I can get any channel from any satellite my dish can reach, and the groups that sell those give you free access to their private streaming they update constantly with new releases… I got mine in 2018 or 2019 I think, at the time IPTV was like BRL$20 a month and the decoder BRL$800

        Some of those decoders are crazy. My dad was once testing one that able to show the feeds between reporters on site and the TV station, I remember watching half an hour of a camera lying on a table while in the background there was a reporter setting up an interview for later, or another one setting up the shot and rehearsing for the live connection with the newscaster.

          I found a video of a guy showing a model similar to mine, he shows the streaming (the UI is crap, but hey, it’s free lol)… watching the video I just remembered, you can also access a lot of random public cameras around the world, they should add the hacked Flocks to the list https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QDfQoAtc9GM
          It doesn’t show him exploring satellites though (he is just on the StarOne C2/C4 menu), although kinda useless to try satellites from other countries since the channels are going to be on a foreign language and there won’t be subtitles.

              I have no idea how it works, we have two main brands, Duosat and Azamerica, I found a fake Azamerica shop here https://azamerica-brasil.com/ you can see they have several models (the models are real, just the shop is a scam [the prices are way way off :P], as it’s illegal you need to find the right person to buy from on Whatsapp or Telegram). I used to be on the Duosat forum and they have a team working on hardware, software and the streaming, but they moved to a Telegram group some years ago and I never joined.
