I have seen today where the Dynamic was a short lived receiver and Fortec Star is calling the Dynamic now, retired! The new model to come from the Fortec Star People is the Fortec Star Fortune! The things I noticed about this new STB were all the buttons on the front of the box itself! Seems like if you lost your remote control you could pretty much set this thing up just by the buttons on the front! I would have given you a link to see it but found it at another site that would conflict with our Gold sponsors so do a Google search for it!
The remote is the same as the Dynamic so it looks again that it is the same OSD as the Mercury II and Dynamic but cosmetic looking better! I have seen screenshots of the OSD and yes you guessed it, it looks like the Dynamic! Here are the Features and Specs of the new Fortec Star Fortune: Fortec Star Fortune High-End Digital Satellite Receiver for Free To Air reception Component Video Output Made In Korea Fortune is a powerful satellite receiver ideal for satellite enthusiast. This new model has component out. The receiver has an easy-to-use Menu, yet is feature-rich. Fortune comes with a comprehensive Power Scan for blind searching satellites.
Users can back up their channel list before upgrading the software, and then restore the channel list, all from within the receiver’s own menu. The front panel has 8 buttons allowing complete control of the receiver’s functions without the use of the remote.
The back panel has all the connection options you would need, with RCA composite jacks, component jacks (Y,Pb,Pr), and an S-video connection. Fortec Star is one of the most popular satellite brands on the market, not only in the USA, but also in Europe, Asia, and the Middle East. The Fortec Star Fortune is made in Korea with quality components, supplies and parts and comes with a full 1-year warranty. This receiver is the most user-friendly satellite receiver and easy to setup. Hobbyist's favorite. Its customers number 1 choice because of the component video output and excellent picture quality. Below are some screen shots and brief explanation of the menu and the receiver functions.
All dressed up an no where to go: I don't use my Mercury II regularly, but I didn't notice any feature listed that it didn't already have. The video and audio output have been there all the time. So, this is the third dress they've put on the same hardware? I don't quite see it, myself. Just an excuse to start out with a high list price? Of course, the Merc is a good receiver, so this one should be -mature- out of the starting gate.
Where the heck is the hard drive interface? I'm spoiled with USB to load and save transponder lists and firmware. Computers don't come with RS232 any more, so why do STBs?! Very true Anole about the RS232, USB is the way to go there. I like to see them dump the Video RCA AV Composite hookup and keep the Component Video Input & S Video, and start putting HDMI in all of the new ones! That would be all receivers SD & HD.
I still use my Mercury II and the old Classic NA! The Dynamic I have is what the wife watches the Glorystar stuff on in the bedroom, I can say I will not be getting rid of any of the old models just yet. Nothing really jumped off the page with the Fortune other than the buttons on the front but would still use the remote control.
Looks like they are leaning back to the Lifetime Ultra look a bit on this model. Instead of another Mercury II Clone how about a US version of the Passion? Guess we will never see that happen, two long in the waiting for that one! Now the teasing with the HD Innovation it will never end! I quit wishing on that along time ago.
Click to expand.As someone with the two previous versions in active use, you didn't find anything new, either? (yea, yea, yea, big deal on the front panel) - Thanks for bring the latest incarnation to our attention.:up I suppose someone needs to get hold of one and do a full review. Maybe we -did- overlook a feature or some polish. As stocks of Dynamics and used Merc II's dry up, I guess we'll be recommending the Fortune (interesting choice of name!) The venerable coolsat 5000/6000 were so popular and solid, they came back as clones. Sticking with a proven design is a conservative decision in these turbulent times. It is really disappointing to see 'new' NA models like this after reading about the prolifteration of European boxes, both Linux and non Linux across the pond.
Where is our NA dvb-s2 blind scanning HD receiver? How about a box with pop in tuners, boxes that can record two channels while watching another?, Multimedia capable boxes connected to the Internet, The list goes on and on. We are getting the crumbs here, now our (already once re-badged) Dynamics have a new name.again, just our good 'fortune'? More of the same with new paint. Ftabman0, thanks for posting this info, not meaning to shoot the messenger but I am frustrated with this situation, maybe this belongs in the - whats annoying you now thread.
Click to expand.Every STB I have owned I have never seen the Closed Caption part work by the box alone. I just done an experiment with my CNX box and guess what, got it to work but there is a catch! Of course there is a catch there always is.
On a hunch I hooked my CNX to the bedroom LCD flat screen tonight by RG6 cable from the out to TV on the STB and turned the Caption to on by the remote button on the CNX. Still nothing, so I turned the Closed Caption on the TV to CC1 and boom, they started working! I turned the Captions off on my CNX and yes they went off! Looks like your TV has to decode them and the STB Caption Feature just lets them come through when switched on or off. Now I wanted to see if they would work with my current set up using the Component video (Y,Pb,Pr) input and yes it does the same thing. So with that, if you got a TV with a built in Closed Caption Feature, turn it to CC1 and then your STB will send the Captions to the TV to decode. Thanks to spacebug42 & TimLones111 for mentioning this in this thread for I would never have tried to make it work at all!
I have tried Closed Captions on all my boxes before but just figured that it was a thing like the EPG since half of these feeds are not intended for us on the FTA side anyway thinking we are just seeing the main downlink and maybe they at the distributing end encode them from their in before it goes out. I am on Galaxy Galaxy 18 on KMMF Fox and the Captions are working great!
See Screen Shots Below! UPDATE: I just tried this with the Dynamic and it works the same way! CC1 on your TV needs to be turned ON then you can toggle your remote to Closed Caption on or off and it will work! The only catch is your TV must have a Closed Caption Decoder for it to work! Remember, not all stations do Closed Captioning so it might not work on all channels from time to time! You all have seen the CC in the box, “ before shows start”.
Look for the CC Symbol (Below) at the beginning of the programs to see if it is. Hope this helped out! Will try it on another set Thanks to FTABman0 for pointing out the problem why I can't see the closed captioning.
I have my Fortec Star Dynamic hooked up through my home theater receiver then on to a high defintion projection system. Before I got my FTA system set up, I used it to play DVDs from Netflix and every DVD I got had a way for me to enable the captioning before starting the movie.
I know for certain that my idle 47 inch rear-projection TV (circa 1995) displays closed captioning and so does my computer monitor which also has an OTA tuner built in. I might try hooking up the old 47 inch set and see if the captioning shows up on it. I would eventually like to get a 42 or 47 inch HDTV set and haul the old 47 inch TV to the electronics recycling area of my local garbage dump.

Like I said, I have had many STB's in and out of here and never once seen that feature work on any of the SD boxes I have tried it on.
If not for your post about Closed Captions, I would never have tried it since that is a feature I rarely use or don’t use at all. It was a fun experiment to see to try at least!
Let me know if it works for you, the Dynamic worked fine last night when I did it and with the TV on CC1 the remote on the Dynamic Switched them on and off like it is supposed to do!! Just make sure your Closed Captions on your TV is set to CC1! Glad to help someone out that really needs the feature! Keep me posted on your results! Click to expand.Absolutely. The Fortune & the Dynamic are basically the same receivers.
The only difference between the two (hardware) is that the Dynamic has a card reader, but it does not work with any subscription based channels. It's just there! Also, the software is a bit different because of the card reader, but you can easily swap out the software with the software of the Dynamic or the Mercury II (which there is not a whole lot of difference between the two). There is a couple of new STB in the piplelines as far as Fortec and I'm sure everybody will lik it as soon as it's released. So far, Fortec Star satellite receivers have been some of the best Set Top Boxes on the market and I'm sure many many people will agree to this. It's by far the best hobbyist satellite receiver & consumer satellite receiver on the market today and I'm sure will continue to be that way. They always have excellent features and functions and the new STBs won't be any different.
I agree 100% Robby! I still say that my old Classic NA is the best blind scan box I have had to date, and there have been a lot of boxes I have tried and used! Now it is super slow but gets the job done!
I was truly impressed with the Mercury II and the Dynamic! I wanted something that was trouble free for my bedroom and got the old Coolsat 6000 out of there and replaced it with Dynamic! By far, any Fortec Star line of receivers is built tough, dependable and is a TRUE FTA baseline receiver for the hobbyist! It is about the simplest boxes to setup and use right out of the gift box! Even the new guy that has never set a system up can figure out how to operate! Just my opinion though.

After being around the block a few times and getting shafted on a couple of brands, I think I have found the proper receiver brand for FTA TV (and Radio). I thought that the Coolsat 5000 and 6000 models were excellent. However, since they discontinued making them, I wondered what I would get to replace them.
I don't need to replace any of my own receivers, but my friends want to get into the FTA adventure, too. I cannot tell them to buy a Coolsat on Ebay and feel good about it as they might end up with someone's jacked up and hacked unit, which may even have a lot of problems.
I can buy some of these types of units and usually figure out how to revert them to working condition, but a new person on the FTA block won't know about these things and I wouldn't wish it on them. From now on, until something better comes up, I am going with the Fortec Star receivers! They are very user friendly and they do perform as the manufacturer states they will. When I get my 'hobby money' built back up, I am going to buy some more Fortec receivers!
I really like them and you are absolutely right, they are very, very good FTA receivers. RADAR, The Fortec Star Brand is all I set up for people! When introduce FTA and the hobby to friends and family, when they want a system, they get a Fortec Star system! I usually just set them up with a Moteck Motor and most of the time; they get a Fortec Star Universal FSKU-V LNB! If you never used one, you need to get one and try!
The ones I stocked up on a few years ago say they are.03 N.F. Not.04 N.F like the new ones! I am about out of those but you can bet I will keep a couple for spares!
Fortec Star now also makes a motor and I would wish that Sadoun or someone would get some of those for me to try out! I love the Fortec Star line and will continue to put these systems in for people!
On another note the guy that I set the system up for a couple weeks ago says that he is really disappointed in the KU FTA thing. I find out today that he was told about the “Eye Patch” part and wanted it really to do so with this system! He told my Father N Law that there was “Cards” that you could insert in the Dynamic to make it get all the pay channels! This is one reason that I pick the Fortec Star brand for people because there is NO Support for the “Eye Patch” S#.T!:up Needless to say he wants it taken down now and my Father N Law wants it for his new set-up with his Skyvision stuff and his new 8 footer! So, there are still a lot of people out there that think that the FTA thing means Everything Free! Just to show how much this guy was mislead the card thing was a D.tv thing back in the late 90’s early 2000's and has not a clue what service or what there is to watch legally on these systems! I really do not care, I will just go out and take it down and give it to a new owner that will appreciate it more!
I never put a system in anyway or even talk about them if that person asks about pay channels! I hate it to no end that FTA to most people means hacking pay TV!
This hobby has a black eye and it really started way before the E. years!
Back when the big C-Band era was around almost nobody scrambled their signals, the old timers like this guy thought that he could and asked around and looked things up on the internet about hacking way before I got out there to install his system. I should have thought that it would go that way for before I left out there he said something about HBO coming on around 11PM. Just like back in the day of the veteran BUD owners would say, I told him that this box will only pick up in the clear signals and nothing else! I made sure that I scanned all FTA Only transponders in before I left out there. Anyway, one reason he got the FSKU-V LNB! I defiantly can’t wait till E. gets there signal secured and this stuff will come to an end like it did for the D.tv stuff!

I am patently waiting for the HD STB’S to come down in price and it will be Christmas for us all! I am glad my Father N Law is going to get it! He bought it for the guy (His Best Friend) to just try anyway to see if he wanted to get into the hobby! Guess he got an awakening! I have my Father N Law recruited into the “Adventures In Dish Hunting” BUD style.
He calls me everyday on places where he has stopped and seen a BUD and a smaller Dish in yards! Got him trained right! My Brother is on the look out for dishes too! I think he found a Birdveiw the other day!
He said he thinks it is one since he has heard me describe one and I just sent him pictures of what they look like, Logo, back of dish and front! These dishes you can’t confuse with other ones when you find one! He has yet to email me back! Anyway, a short story there on the Dynamic and my frustration with some A$$ that thought it was too good to be true!

Fortec Star Lifetime Ultra
11-. 12- OTHER PRODUCTS. LIFETIME ULTRA Digital BLIND SEARCH Satellite Receiver FORTEC STAR Lifetime ULTRA TM Discontinued - See other MPEG2 DVB receiver from Fortec Star. Fast chipset, very sensitive tuner, easy menu, and the list goes on. The best Korean made BLIND SEARCH receiver on the market today.
A blind search receiver can find every feed signal. Super fast channel changing speed. Crisp picture with the S-Video output. S/PDIF audio coaxial output for your listening pleasure. Listen to AC3 broadcasts (Dolby Digital 5.1) when your Lifetime receiver is connected to a Dolby A/V amplifier (decoder).
What does BLIND SEARCH (aka SMART or POWER SCAN) mean? It means that the receiver will do an automatic scan of the incoming satellite signal in small steps for active symbolrates to determine if there are any live transponder signals transmitting Free to air TV or radio channels. In this special search feature, the receiver will not only identify the frequency but also the symbol rate, polarity, FEC, and PIDS. It will then store these transponders and any FTA channels it finds in its memory. Any encrypted channels it finds will not be displayed, instead you will see 'BAD or ENCRYPTED SIGNAL'. These are not FTA and will require subscription. The BLIND SEARCH feature comes in handy if a channel has relocated to a new transponder or if you have a motorized C and/or KU band dish and enjoy surfing the satellites for available FTA channels.
Watch and listen to the Free PBS stations on AMC3 satellite with this receiver.
