[benny/9]

ive loaded the patch and softkeys ,but still can only watch fta channels ,what channels should i be able to watch?

************************************************** *******
the most is open on thor 1w satellite at this time and
you should have all the digi-tv chns open on thor 1w
there are about 150 chns look for nova sport and if this
is open all the other chns will open these are the chns in
nagravision encryption the patch does'nt open the other
encryptions on thor you will also find some chns on sirus 4.8e
tv-globo and the rai chns on hotbird 13e and a few chns on astra 19e

Welcome to DK!

Hi there,
I am sure you will find this forum very useful. I don't use a mac, but our more experienced members would be able to advice you.

You can't, there's no com port on Intel Macs. You need to get a usb to com adaptor first. Or find a PC with a com port and use a null-modem cable to patch your receiver.

thanks georgio_77. if i find a usb to com adaptor, do i then use a null modem cable? and will the patches and update firmware download ok to the mac ?

[Georgio_77]

You'll either need to use a program like Crossover to launch the patcher utility or boot into Windows first using Bootcamp.

************************************************** *******
you need both a
[usb to serial convertor] and a [null modem cable]
both these items can be got from maplins
or if your thinking of upgrading your receiver
the new technomate receivers now have usb ports
fitted and can be patch etc: direct from a memory stick
and you wont need these cables or your computer in the
same room as the satellite receiver

ok, i'll give it a go and see what happens. i'll be back to you when i've tried it out. cheers

patching a tm 500

************************************************** ******
always use the latest patches when they are posted
the latest patches say they autoupdate the keys for you.
the patches are third party software added to the latest technomate official software to open certain channels without the need to use cards or cams, by loading the latest patches your receiver should always be upto date. softcams are key files for all the providers and you will need to load
the softcam for any provider who changes keys that are not covered by the patch autoupdate

i know what i'll ask you does not have nothing to do with the current thread but i'm new to the forum but i need help

load patch then softcam and you will have loads of channels for sports after that load via accsess hack and you willhave loads more sports channels do a bit of reading in the stickies section at the top of the page and you,ll be amazed at what channels you can get free then a few selected questions and away you go
