TM5402 M4 17/05/2023 patch feedback here

[Francescone]

I really hope new TM will not be enigma2 or android! Really!!
Closed source is the best choice in my opinion, obviously if the firmware is good enough.
No problem if it is not combo (it would be just an option), I would be happy in such 4K enabled 5402 M4, maybe adding the chance to download/upload settings via USB and editing them with a specific computer editor.

It won't be E2 for sure, single and twin 4K.
Q4 at earliest been bandied about.
I agree @kippysat @Ferret they only released this FS patch to keep brand name in the mix, who knows how long FS will last this time?

This is a must having a decent channel editor and could give it an edge over the Viarks and others that don't, i won't hold me breath on this though.

None of them will pay for an editor, which always tells me they are not serious about the stb, only what it can do the cheapest way?

 

[Ferret]

Both Viark and GtMedia are working on channels editors.

Hopefully they come up with a good one.

There is a company that does individual sdx editors. Anyone serious can purchase easy enough, there are many many different sdx versions.
Setedit will probably make one. Can contact the author and ask

Manic's already said it won't be a combo, presume it will be enigma 2 but that would mean no FS on the box maybe ? I wasn't keen on the Viark box when i tried it, the OCD in me couldn't live with large chunks of the epg being 1 hour out and didn't like that i couldn't put the satellites in the order i want.
Hopefully the new 4k Technomate is as user friendly as the old 1500's were and supports FS.

You can put the the satellites in the order you want on the viark sat 4k box. Menu>Installation >Antenna Config>Select satellite and 2 clicks right on the remote allows you move to wherever you want in the list.

Hi Coastman,

I am ready to test on my box and see what happens. Apologies, but I don't have access to 7e or 21e.

I can access 28.2E, 23.5E, 19.2E, 16E, 13E, 10E, 9E......then 1W, 15W.

Do you have any transponders/feeds I can check on the above?

Hi Kippysat

There are no regular biss channels on the sats you have mentioned that are not clearing with the key updates but thanks for offer to check them out. A couple of channels on 4.9e and 3e only clear the with keys added manually
they are 4.9e XSport 11766H 30000 and 3e Al Ahad 11692H 2962 so not sure if anyone can clear them on biss au with this latest patch as stated previously does not work for me.

 

[Coastman]

Do the football feeds auto update ok on 10e?

Tried a few of the Champions League and Championship feeds on 10e and 7e this week and nothing cleared for me.

One ive heard mentioned is an E2 list to SDX convertor.

If one of them pulls that off, its a game changer.

Setedit do lists for E2 I'm pretty sure

 

[Ferret]

Setedit do lists for E2 I'm pretty sure

Dreamset was able to convert e1 and i think e2 lists to sdx and sdx to e1 but those old versions dont support the latest sdx protocol sadly.

Last year I contacted Wolfgang asking for a better editor for Viark boxes, I bought some of Setedit version years ago.
He replied the following day but the process stopped there. No reply to my second email after about 1 month or so. Very bad luck.

Hi Coastman,

OK, appreciate the update. My set up doesn't have a motor so difficult to check all the satellites.

In the next few days I will alter my setup to lock on 3.0E, 4.8E and 7.0E and then try the TPs you suggested
to see what happens. Hopefully, I should also be able to check other feeds that come available on those Sats.

 

[kippysat]

Morning,

Only have partial results to be honest. So altered my setup to access 7.0E. All BISS tps cleared
and BISS AU worked for me. Unfortunately, I didn't have time to set up for 3.0E and 4.8E.

I will try again on one of the next few weekends, if I am allowed to spend the time on it...lol.
Can't do anything during the week as I am working, so only have the weekends to try.

 

[kippysat]

No worries. My old setup is back in place as I tested on the day for a few hours...

So TP's 10762, 11689, 11728 and two others (didn't record the numbers) all cleared.

Please note the signals weren't super strong at all as I used the 80cm dish, so I likely
missed others that may have been picked up on the bigger dish.

 

[kippysat]

Wow, this is like a police interrogation...lol.

It was Saturday, not sure the sports.
