Re: HDHomeRun Prime & Spectrum High Split converter problem

When you say "the Prime isn't getting it", that's after you click the "Detect Channels" button on the Channel Lineup screen, right?

Re: Coaxial cable splitting questions

I use an Extreme Broadband IPA1008DL-RSVF. It has eight zero-loss amplified outputs, along with a pass-thru (non-amplified) output that connects to your cable modem. I've been using it with my two Primes for six years now, with no issues. There is at least one other company that makes a similar ...

Re: fox issues

I have also noticed signal quality issues during the world cup games that Fox is broadcasting. Prior to June, my Fox station was pretty rock solid at 100% signal quality. Now, it could be coincidence, and maybe tropo is actually to blame. In case you want to take a look, my device IDs are 10AAB199 ...

Re: HDHomeRun Prime & Spectrum High Split converter problem


There is a USB connection between the Prime and the HSC. And if you click on the Tuning Adapter link from the Prime's web page, it will bring up a series of HSC web pages. I'm fairly certain of this. I had similar problems to the OP when I installed my 2 HSCs. One of them had the proper line-up ...

Re: HDHomeRun Prime & Spectrum High Split converter problem

To the OP, I feel your pain. I am a Spectrum customer in SE Michigan, they swapped out my tuning adapter last year for a Vecima HSC-1-H High-Split Converter. Spent about a half-day in my basement with the Spectrum technician, who eventually was successful working with phone support to get everything ...

Re: Is my HDHR Prime dying?

If you haven't tried this already, I would swap the old power adapter with the brand new one that is still in the box. Sometimes power adapters go bad and cause wonky things to happen.

Re: Signal Strength App

@petelombardo, I have run into situations in the past where the developer of a piece of software/freeware discontinues support and enhancements, for whatever reason. Unless there is another developer with the coding skills required to pick up where the original developer left off, it becomes "use at ...

The template update finally arrived, I'm running successfully in Bridge mode.

Re: Signal Strength App


just remember also to specify the devices with the variable if you do switch to bridge mode as autodiscovery will stop working.

According to comments on a recent commit (in github),
This adds an HTTP fallback using the HDHomeRun cloud API (ipv4-api.hdhomerun.com/discover) when UDP finds no ...

Re: Signal Strength App

It still does not seem to want to install with Bridge as the default. Here are the steps that I performed:

Stopped the docker
Removed the docker (with the 'also remove image' checkbox checked
From the community Apps screen, clicked on 'Previous Apps', then 'Docker'
Checked the checkbox next to ...

Hmmm, I just removed the docker and then installed it again. It's still installing as a "Host" Network Type. Maybe I need to try again later?

Re: Signal Strength App

I noticed a change that was recently made to the Signal Strength app:

Add HTTP fallback discovery for HDHomeRun devices; switch Docker to bridge networking

After I updated the docker (within Unraid), I tried modifying the docker Network Type to Bridge (from Host). After the docker was restarted ...

Re: Signal Strength App

@petelombardo Looks like there was a new release today. I couldn't find any sort of change log showing what was updated. Maybe I didn't look in the right place?

Re: Signal Strength App

I think I'm in a catch-22. From what I can tell, Unraid will not allow you to override the port number when the container is set to host mode. If I set the container to bridge mode, I can override the port number, and I can bring up the HDHomeRun signal monitor website, but it does not find any of ...
