    Technomate "TM-6900 HD COMBO Super+"

    "TM-6900 HD COMBO Super+"

    I have just bought one of these, it is a new version and is supposed to have updated hardware it comes with a black remote.

    Under System Information it says

    Model : TM-6900+ Super
    S/W Version : 6.75p (mar 13 2009)
    H/W Version : 1.00
    Boot Version :1.10
    CH version : F012 + STD001

    (The latest software for the 6900 Super Combo is 674p).

    I am pretty pleased with it but am curious :

    1. Why it's not listed on the Technomate website
    2. Nobody has mentioned it before on any of the Sat forums I have looked art (here's hoping it's not a clone.. :-( )
    3. Whether I am missing anything!

    I have 4 port DISEQC switched with LNB's on astra 1,2,hotbird, ab3.

    The only channels I seem to be able to clear are MCM Belgium and haven't had any luck with 8281 & cc either although it does appear to connect OK to my router.

    What I am puzzled about is when software is released it lists all the channels that are supposed to work. But they don't on mine. Do I need to buy a cam or a programmable smartcard as well?

    Anyway, if anyone has any comments let me know

    Thanks!

    Patrick

    Question Logic

    Well my logic is that maybe on LATEST TM6900HD Supers TM are thinking that they make it clearer its a Super' & not the 'original' model by putting on them '+Super' - not realising that they have actually confused us all even more?
    Mine (TM6900HD Super) after all ALSO has a black remote, so thats not really different anyway!
    As for the 675 I CANT explain - but I do know TM have brought out firmware numbers 'newer' than the current PATCHES in the past too, so it may be that we are ALL in for a new patch very soon?
    Just a few thoughts guys, maybe right, maybe wrong - who knows?

    So if you already have the write up Keith, why not share with us all the very subtle differences we should expect on this 'new' TM6900HD + Super please M8?

    Thanks for all of your very quick replies. Well that's put my mind at ease, I actually subscribe to Wotsat too but hadn't noticed, shows how observant I am!

    I forgot to say, the 4HD works fine... ;-) (but no doubt that will be knocked off when the replacement Sky cards come out...)

    Hi M8

    He has the Technomate "TM-6900 HD COMBO Super+", and as holmroad has pointed out, he also has the black remote with his Super version.

    Be nice if you would put the 675p firmware on a USB memory stick and post it so we can check the actual differences m8.

    Who are you referring to ?, if it is the OP then he has only made 2 posts and may not be able to upload any files, it could also be that this file may only be relevant to that particular receiver, as there is no mention of it on the Technomate website and nothing on the DM's forum either.

    Icon14 Keith

    Still await Keiths prognosis on the subtle differences, like TWO ethernets, FOUR USB's, etc?
    Mine IS a BLACK Super with BLACK remote - but was just making a point really!

    I 'could' PM you for the 'extra' details M8 - but I'm sure that there are plenty of people on here who would love to see what there is extra on this new stb please - but in open forum?
    Surely there are no SECRETS here - even Technomate may be interested if as Aldo suggests there is nothing about this on their official website?

    If anyone has any queries about which is the latest Official software for their Techno receivers, then they can check here:

    HTML Code:
    http://www.technomate.com/home.php
    Click on Downloads and scroll down to your particular receiver, to get the latest info.

    Have been told the silver super + will be available in 4 weeks.
    The changes I was told by Technomate person was different board more sensitive tuner like the non super 5400 but I want silver so dont have one yet, a mate got a black one and now waiting for poor weather to test this on 7w, as the weather is too good here at the moment i need to wait to confirm if it's true.

    Hands up, I didn't read the thread correctly. I thought he had just purchased a new TM 6900 Combo Super and had an updated 675p firmware in it. I didn't spot the sutble difference with the Super and Super+ bit.

    By the way I couldn't work out how to upload 675p from the receiver to the PC, the software doesnt give this option. A new update for the 6900 super has just come out called 679p which I have successfully (albeit tentatively) transferred to the Super+ and it works fine, so oboviously, the hardware is very similar in the non+ and the + versions...
