DTV Brasil,Latin America?

[jjcrew]

Can this be done from the US with our hardware and programming abilities?

[granleonel]

Could you be more specific?

Are you in USA and you want to program a card for Gla Brazil with USA hardware?
If you have a flashable unlooper or the atmel for Gla, the answer is yes, you must to download the software from the members area.
The Gx cards are diferents from the H or Hu cards from the american system, then the programing is diferent you can read the post from latin forum.
Se voice fala portuges o se entende español voice pode achar muita informação.
Even a lot of people speak english there

Even if you can program the card and convert the hardware, it's no use.

DirecTV Brazil's footprint doesn't reach the U.S. It's under the south beam of Galaxy 8i, and only reaches South America.

What people can get in the U.S. is DirecTV Latin America programming, in Spanish, not Portugese. These programs are beamed to north of South America, Central America and Mexico.

No it is not the same, even are diferent companies.
Para Latino America the Company is GLA (galaxy Latin America) they use the Galaxy VIIIr sat and the cards are A, Gx15......Gx28 the IRD are similar but the microprocesor has diferent programs.
Dierct Tv para todos use the american sat and H or Hu cards

The programing is diferent, but at the end both use the same standars ISO7816 and basic set of code for microcontroller very similar to the 8052.

No, DireCTV Para Todos is meant for the Hispanic viewers in the U.S. DirecTV Latin America, or Galaxy Latin America (GLA), is meant for Latin America. DirecTV Latin America has two channels that make a soccer fan's day: ESPN International and Spanish La Liga package. The latter is like DirecTV's NFL Sunday Ticket, eight games per weekend (some live, some delay), coupled with the two games on ESPN Intl, you can watch all 10 La Liga games every weekend. Of course, it also has some Mexican channels, but MFL on those channels are generally available in the U.S. anyway (Univision, FSW Espanol, Galavison, etc.)

However, the Spanish La Liga package became available on DirecTV Para Todos last November. Thus if you want to get a system for soccer that you can't get in the U.S., I suggest Sky Mexico.

Where can I get some info on sky Mexico, what do I need to capture this sat from Northeastern US?
Is it the same equipment as Direct tv in the Us?
Does it use the same scrambling system?
Can it be captured from the above?
Thanks

you would use the search tool, here in the forum and look for Sky New York, same people posted information that they received Sky in New York with a big dish (2.4 mts i think)

The Sky system is diferent to Direct Tv and Gla, it use a diferent ird, cards, lnb etc...
