Hi,

Simple question and hoping someone can help. Is it possible to enter BISS keys for channels on the Fortec Star Innovation HD? If so, how do you do it?

Any help would be fantastic.

Lider on 13E by any chance?

Well that was one, however noticed a few on Turksat 42e as well. Just have no idea how I enter BISS keys on the box. So any help would be really good.

Sorry, if this is a bit basic, however I am a newbie to all this techy fun stuff! :)

So you are interested in the football. Forget Lider - they just cut the satellite video feed when they are showing Prem games...

What about the Turksat channels that seem to be shown up as BISS? I have seen these BISS keys on the internet, however no idea how or what you need to do to type these into my Fortec Star box.

Dunno - I have problems with 42E, so I dont bother with it very often.

The Innovation isn't flashable wifh patches to be able to enter keys AFAIK.

Excuse me for being thick about this, but am I right about what a BISS key actually is and does?

Basically a simple form of encryption of a string of code that can somehow be typed into your box when you want to watch a channel that is BISS encrypted?

Yes - if you have a box that allows key entry AND know what the key is.

From what Llew says you cant enter keys into your FS though.
