slt bien, to get TF1 and M6 on VLC, you just need to update your list by replacing the PLAYLIST  here is the link:  http://mafreebox.freebox.fr/freeboxtv/playlist.m3u

machin · Answer

It no longer works as W9 (M6 group) Free is no longer allowed to broadcast them.

Crazydodie · Answer

I have the same problem, but why do we have these channels on TV if Free is not allowed to broadcast them? It's frustrating not being able to watch your favorite series on the computer!

Boune · Answer

Sorry, but I don't know!

beubeu · Answer

it's annoying

jojomada · Answer

Hello, I no longer have M6, TF1, and W9 on my PC. What do I need to do to get them back? Thank you.

ozfrog · Answer

Hello, I have the same problem in a way;
On my PC with a Pinnacle PCTV Rave card - I have the 6 terrestrial channels - S-video connection.
On my iMac - going through airport (WiFi) and the VLC software - neither TF1, W9, nor M6.

The FREE hotline responds that they do not have broadcasting rights but cannot explain how
the same shows, coming from the same copper line, are not available depending on whether you use a capture card or
a software connection;

Strange and not very coherent.

Foulozof · Answer

It's not very nice... Until now, Free's service was really flawless or almost perfect!!! Sniff

Boobs · Answer

It's not complicated.
TF1, M6, and W9 are not in the playlist usable by VLC, to prevent users from recording these channels.
Similarly, if you record these channels using the HD box, you will notice that you cannot retrieve them via FTP.

ozfrog, it's normal for you to have these channels over the air; it's the digital broadcast that is not authorized.

atamac · Answer

Hello everyone

I am also with Free, the explanation is that they did not obtain the rights for multi-diffusion, that is why the channels in question are only available on the HD box.

Have a good day!

Foulozof · Answer

"TF1, M6 and W9 are not in the playlist usable by VLC, to prevent users from recording these channels."  It's really stupid this trick, as if DVD recorders didn't exist... °_° Not clever!!!

vincent750 · Answer

Well, basically, it means that we can't have M6 and TF1?

Laurent · Answer

No, we can't, however you can buy a TNT USB key; for €30, you get TF1, M6, and W9 – you have these channels in better quality and without bugs.

vincent750 · Answer

Yes. But do you know a site where you can watch TF1 for free?

dr nic · Answer

You can watch TF1 on tf1.fr, but only certain shows are available. Only the news and the games.

Ju · Answer

Free is the worst operator, don't be surprised either ;)
When I see that you can't even download, call, and watch TV at the same time, it really makes me laugh!!!
Besides, all ADSL operators are bad, luckily cable and fiber optic exist....

Sheiiky-Swan · Answer

Hi!!
To watch TF1, you need to download Livestation (search on Google). It's a program in English, but if you know a few English words, it's fine! Download, install, and then start the program, and you need to sign up (it takes 15 seconds!) & boom, it's done! So people who have the TV channels stream them live. Right now, there are quite a few channels, including TF1, and soon there will be M6. The only issue is that when people stop streaming, it cuts off, but you can always find someone else who is streaming! However, I don't know if it's legal or not, since TF1 has expressed its disapproval of the channel being streamed on computers..(for stupid reasons too). Anyway, I hope you understood, otherwise feel free to ask me questions!

loulou · Answer

stop making spelling mistakes, it's ridiculous

harakiri · Answer

I totally agree, it's the same for me with free TV and VLC, I don't have TF1 or M6 on my Mac, and even if it's not intentional, it's one of the few good things they've done.

Hello,
maybe it’s time we took charge and boycotted
those stupid channels and other services that always try to take more from us and treat us like thieves because we use emule, while we are the consumers who keep them alive.

Well, tonight I'm reconnecting my TV tuner to watch Prison Break season 4 in French.
But this is exceptional.

I threw away my TV some time ago because of the same people who would shut down the internet if they could, but since that’s not possible (too decentralized ;-)
they are gradually turning it into Minitel 2.0.

It’s up to you not to buy the music player thing that can’t even play an mp3, but only the proprietary format stuffed with DRM and other joys...

Bye!

Hello everyone,
the dumbest thing about all this is that TF1 and M6 are on TNT, and there you can record them as much as you want and in digital format!!!! And legally!!! Even TF1 HD can be recorded from TNT

for the DVD recorder if it goes through HDMI okay for the copy again via the Freebox HD, but it comes down to the same thing as recording on the hard drive of the Freebox HD....

if it goes through SCART, therefore analog, it’s not worth it, it’s like with a PC capture card, it remains analog!

The best option is to buy a USB TNT stick, I recommend (without having any shares in it) the Emtec Intuix S810 for 20-23 euros that I can also get to work under Linux despite it not being intended for that, and the image quality is more than exemplary!!!
and it supports HD, by putting the right codecs!
just a good PouchinTV Mod under XP/Vista with DScaler filter, etc... it's indicated on the site (RAM usage 15MB in SD compared to 54MB in SD with the original software)
channel switching using the remote control or keyboard
Tested with an ATI remote Wonder and it works perfectly!

and under Linux with Kaffeine or VLC, you type: "S810 Ubuntu" on Google and you’ll find the right page...

I tried with the OpenSUSE distribution, I didn’t manage to get it to work, at the same time I didn’t stress about it too much since I don’t like OpenSUSE.

As for the boycott, yes and no, it's not always easy, there are good and bad programs....
but you really have to be dumb to let yourself be broadcast for free on terrestrial TV, TNT, TNT HD, FREEBOX HD, and to refuse to be broadcast to FREEBOX HD OWNERS the broadcast, even at low speed on the PCs of the network!!!!!

especially since the same Freebox HD thanks to its hard drive allows you to record in digital or in HD digital!!!!

I took the subscription for the promo pack with all the MCM and M6 Music for which you cannot retrieve the recorded files with the Freebox HD by FTP server, and they, however, are in the playlist, we can watch them, so why aren’t TF1, M6, and W9 there????
And does recording these channels on the PC work? (I haven't tested yet)

there's however something interesting to test, that I just thought of while writing these lines, if someone wants to take the plunge!!!
it would be to test recording in Timeshifting on the Freebox HD and more specifically on normal or HD TF1, but from TNT since the one from ADSL is locked, and with your PC connected to the network trying to read in the FTP of the Freebox with a slight delay in the video....

If that works it would be a nice workaround.
But not everyone has the TNT tuner in their Freebox HD...

best regards!

pdany4 · Answer

After various tests....
The Freebox HD TNT tuner isn't working!

The same antenna connected to the PCHC decodes HD perfectly....

So is it the HD TNT receiver chip or the tuner??? In any case, as "papthor" said, it's impossible to record HD and retrieve it via FTP....

However, there's still the option of a PCHC or a regular PC + TNT key + HD software (PouchinTV Mod latest model on forum 0.206 or 0.208, and there it can record full TNT and TNT HD...)

Otherwise, for channels like MCM, M6 Music and friends that we can't retrieve via FTP, we can launch with the Freebox playlist on the PC and then do what is called a "stream recording."
On Linux with MPlayer, on Windows (to be searched) by typing on Google "Freebox playlist stream recording"

Hoping this can help a few people....

This is complicated for the final result, but remains interesting for a DIGITAL recording if we really need it.

it's not sad either and it's what awaits us with DTT
PS the TF1 and M6 groups have refused the ISPs the right to exploit their respective channels on ADSL TV and among other reasons, indeed to prevent recordings. there is the replay system which will soon be paid that "supplements" Always about the money!
