Hello,
Can the device's software update be done by connecting it directly to a Mac?
Or do we need to use a removable storage device?

    Hello,

    Most often the firmware update of a non-connected device is done via a removable storage medium such as a USB flash drive for example.

    But are you sure that this TNT adapter has a firmware update?
    Because on the Takara site, no device of this type is available in any case...

    Best regards

      Thank you for your response Ziggourat.
      Indeed, their product isn't even listed on their website. Yet, whenever we turn on the TV and the decoder, a software update is requested each time...
      And I just went through the user manual where it is indeed stated that the device must be updated but from a compatible PC...
      In short, we are going in circles.

      If a URL link is provided in the manual, try... but doing it from a Mac leaves me puzzled...
      However, I have doubts because after some small searches on the Internet, I can't find any reliable information (on the official site, there is an outdated offer for a refund, so it is indeed a device marketed by them!) or only mixed reviews about this device.

      Afterwards, I understand that it can be very annoying if the message persists during the broadcast of the channels. On the other hand, if it’s only temporary (just at startup), then maybe the update search function could be turned off in the options.

      All of this is hypothetical since I am not familiar with this device.

      At worst, contact Takara: http://www.takara.fr/internet/contact.php

        I would say that to disable this update request, check the various menus to see if there is an option to turn updates OFF (or cancel or similar). On mine, another brand, it's done.
