My new TM5402HD M2 I set up yesterday on patch 109P also fails to work in TM Online - Youtube gives a few 'selected' items, but bit disappointed no 'search' option!
My other main problem is that for instance on both 13E and 28E previously fine channels no longer have a signal, e.g. some Sly Italia movies, Prima Fila and Calcio - plus Super Tennis no longer show a signal - all despite blind scanning them again just to make sure!
BT Sport HD 1 & 2 plus Setanta on 28E same thing!
I currently have the black inverto LNB fitted, so will try my trusty old white Sharpe one later, just in case!:Cry:
I would say its the Black Ultra had a few now that have had so called issues with certain frequency bands, If you want to dismiss the LNB theory then try Patch 101p which is very stable and exhibits no problems

Thanks for your comments mate, I have tried the white Sharpe LNB and the zero signals on both 13E and 28E obtained with black inverto are now at over 90% with this Sharpe LNB, yet Bulsat 39E was 93% on 39E with black inverto, but down to 73% with Sharpe - so it does seem that a 'compromise is in order here and that I will maybe leave my Sharpe LNB on until the NEXT patch! lol!!
As for trying patch 101P, will probably leave it for a while too!
Regards.:drink:
Those old white Sharps took some beating, it was a sad day when they stopped making them. The black '8's were useless, I never got to try a 9. I've even seen some 'converted' to C120 flange for prime focus dishes! I've got some used but OK ones kicking about you can have for the cost of the postage if you want.
Out of interest, what frequency range(s) was the Inverto notching out? Was it similar on 13E & 28E?
I only hope I can modify the s/r as you suggest - I remember we once tried something else like this using the Editor for getting rid of corruptions on my TM6900HD Super Channel List some time ago?
(Only difference here is I suppose, that this is a DIRECT stb mod rather than having to go into the channel list!!)
Hi mate, not sure what you mean by notching out, but white Sharpe seems to bring back all the popular satellite strengths on patch 109P, but maybe not the weaker ones like 7W (which is only reason I ever bought the black inverto in the first place as they were all saying that was THE one to go for to pull in JSC Sports 1-6HD with my 1.1M dish here in North Lincs - but it DIDNT!
I think that the signal with my new TM5402HD M2 is even WORSE than it was with my TM6900HD Super, that's with both Sharpe AND black inverto LNB's!
By 'notching out', I meant.. is there a specific band of frequencies that are not being received when you are using the Inverto? i.e is it the same frequencies on 13E and 28E that are affected? Another consideration is that the Inverto Ultra has unusually high gain, it may be swamping the tuner with excessive signal. Do you have an attenuator you could try?

-----------------------------------
TWIN 14.4dB 12.5dB 13.5dB
TWIN* 14.1dB 12.6dB 13.7dB
SINGLE 14.7dB 12.5dB 10.2dB
SINGLE 14.4dB 12.3dB 9.8dB
SINGLE 14.7dB 12.5dB 9.5dB
I found that the Twin Black Ultra performs better than the single, It does for me anyway i saw a test from one of the Guy's on another forum and it confirmed that performance in the upper band was better than the single by around 2db where as the Single is suppose to perform better in the lower band.
