Here is a Guide for Building your own IPTV and Cardsharing Server.

I remember way back when I was fully into the sales and promotion of IKS/SKS devices; my fans used to ask me, “Lemmy, why can’t you build your own Cccam server.” I always played it down, knowing full well what it entails. For one, I don’t have the got to go into mainstream blackhat ha*cking. Secondly, I sure do not have the 1000s of dollars to waste when the Satellite service providers(SSP) eventually block the server. Today, I will discuss getting or building your premium IPTV or Cardsharing(IKS/SKS) servers. Let’s put it this way: IPTV vs IKS server setup basics.

IPTV vs. IKS: The Introduction

IPTV is a broad term on its own with various forms. Cardsharing, on the other hand, is subdivided into internet keys sharing(IKS) and satellite key sharing(SKS). Today, IPTV’s popularity is skyrocketing, while one major form of cardsharing, SKS, is becoming extinct. Pure FTA channels and biss keys channels are replacing SKS. We also have powervu technology which is closely related to SKS. In this guide, you shall learn some basic tools and techniques that Cardsharing and IPTV service providers use.

IPTV on its own is not illegal. If it were to be, then youtube, Facebook videos, Instagram videos, Netflix, and the likes would long be gone. However, there are some elements of illegality in IPTV. Immediately you use IPTV technology as a circumventing device; you are using it illegally. Cardsharing, on the other hand, is 100% illegal. Firstly, no sane satellite TV provider will share her cards to make it work with every decoder. The basis of the satellite tv business is the secrecy of the cards.

IPTV DEFINITION

According to Wiki, IPTV is defined as multimedia services such as television/video/audio/text/graphics/data delivered over IP-based networks managed to provide the required quality of service and experience, security, interactivity, and reliability.

General Requirements for A Premium IPTV and Cardsharing Server

I will mention the ones that I can remember. However, the actual requirements may be more than this. I will try to list the most important ones and their uses. Please, note that the cost of procuring all these items is huge, and they are hardly sold to a novice. I don’t think you can walk-in into any shop to get all these.

• The singular most important elements in the whole process are the hacker. You need astute reverse engineering knowledge to set up a premium IPTV or IKS. The ha*kers do this job and give the IPTV providers the solution. Don’t be surprised that not all providers own the solution
• Server PC: This can be a laptop or a desktop computer. However, it must be of the highest specs possible. You cannot use a pc with 2GB RAM and a dual-core CPU
• Thirdly you need to buy a server for your “data centers.” The best is a dedicated server with substantial RAM and good CPU cores. You don’t use a shared hosting account for commercial IPTV or IKS
• DVB Cards: I already explain this in some of my articles. Ha*ckers usually use multiple tuners DVB cards. These are decoders for PC. You use this to read the card(I mean the official smart card that you are targetting)
• The dish for the position(s) you want to focus on. E.g. if you have a solution for Canal, you need the dish for it
• A standby power generating set or inverter/ UPS. The service will be disrupted if the power goes out on your server PC.
• Modulators
• high and stable internet connection.
• Also, it would be best if you had multiport routers
• Card readers

IPTV vs. IKS Server Setup Basics – Software requirements

You also need to install some software to get it up and running. You can use any of the following

• You need some software mostly Linux based, like Skycaster Pro, IPTV Admin, scrambler, or IPTV manager

How to Set up an IPTV Server

There are two ways by which you can do this. It is either you outsource the building of the server and manage it after you might have built it. Alternatively, you can embark on a Do-It-Yourself(DIY procedure.

To contract the building of the server to a contractor: These contractors work for official satellite tv/IPTV providers and those who want to use it illegally. One such is cesbo. com or infomir. eu

Also, For each component, there are choices of software. For example, one can use Astra software for DVB and IP-TS reception. For personal educational and research purposes, You can use “tvheadend” on Libreelec.

IPTV Server Installation Setup

Method 1

I repeat this is 100% for educational and research purposes only. It must not be used in any destructive manner whatsoever. Besides, I will not give you a foolproof walkthrough of the process.

• Some of the software I mentioned in my requirements above will be downloaded to the server PC. Then the group will buy DVB card readers and attach them to the server. Both DVB card readers and tuners are required.
• They extract the decryption keys from the card readers and get satellite signals from DVB tuners.
• Noteworthy, the premium software that you will install to your server supports Conditional access modules(cams), like skycaster pro support, cccam, mgcam, newcamd and some other cams.

METHOD 2

• The IPTV service provider gets a server and installs the software, buys modulators,
• These modulators have different ranges: HDMI to DVB, av/HDMI to IP.
• You connect the satellite receiver to the modulators; then the modulators will be connected to your skycaster or IPTV admin software. You can use any other software as long as it serves the purpose.
• So after all the channels have been populated, each channel is mapped to a particular port, starting from 89**
• So let’s say Lemmy news tv is on port 89**; you can stream locally with a VLC player with a URL that begins with rstp://localhost:89** or rstp://127.0.0.1:89**. Free IPTV URLs abound on the internet, but it gets blocked quickly.
• Now, they use a router that has port forwarding. This opens all the ports for all the channels they have on the server.
• One card can feed 16 channels. So if satellite service providers block one card, 16 channels will be off. A card, in this context, refers to smart cards.

Cardsharing/IKS Server Setup Tutorial

The process is very similar to the one above. The process is as follows:

The Card Sharing is achieved by using satellite TV receivers (usually FTA – Free to Air receivers which are loaded with Linux firmware – Example: T-link, OpenBox, DreamBox, etc.) whose stock software is re-flashed / restored with custom-made to enable key sharing. In this method, one digital satellite receiver, with a valid or legitimate smart card, serves as a host (server) and shares the smart card “keys” over the internet to de-scramble the encrypted channels at the client side.

Furthermore, the firmware (software) of the ‘server receiver’ is patched to send the 64-bit decryption key (called “control word”) every few seconds to its clients (the other satellite receivers) connected to the host network through the internet. A computer with specific software is used along with the satellite receiver to create a Card Server or Internet Key Sharing server.

At the client side (all other receivers receive the “control word” or key from the server), the firmware of the satellite receiver is restored with custom software (called firmware flashing) to receive the key from the server and decrypt the channels as if they are using a valid pay channel subscription card! This custom firmware has a module (called ‘Emulator’) that controls this ‘key’ sharing.

On the client’s side, the satellite receivers are configured the same way as the normal FTA channel receiving system setup –a Dish antenna and a satellite receiver connected to the antenna. The only difference, apart from the connection to the Dish antenna, is, the receiver is also connected to an internet router through a LAN cable, GPRS, Wifi, or a 3G/4G dongle/modem. It works like this:

1. The receiver receives encrypted channel signals from the antenna
2. The receiver receives the decryption key from the IKS server (cardsharing server) via the internet router/modem
3. Receiver (custom firmware) decrypts the channel using the key received from the IKS server and plays the channel on TV.

Internet usage would be very minimal as the internet is used just to share the decryption key. The sizes are like a few kilobytes. The internet is not used to send channel signals or stream channel content.

How IKS/IPTV Providers Structure Their Billing System.

What IPTV/IKS service providers do is that they connect the software to the subscription manager. Then the subscription manager compiles all the ports with individual channel names and maps them to the network’s public IP address with just one port. What the scrambler or IPTV manager does is to map public and private keys to each subscription and all the open ports. So, you can’t connect to the links without authorization. If you pay, on the admin panel, an account is created with a public key to the client and a private key to the server.
