Re: fed up
If FiOS is available, then you get their cable service, a CableCARD, and use a Prime with your software DVR of choice. Be aware that in some parts of FiOS land Verizon is starting to use a new ONT that does not provide a linear QAM TV source (but it also offers a higher speed Internet service, shou...

Re: Encryption
LOS ANGELES — A new digital video recorder specification is now available to licensees of the A3SA content protection technology being deployed throughout the country concurrent with the launch of NEXTGEN TV broadcast channels. Technically A3SA always allowed networked tuner use (within the residen...

Re: Encryption
Once SD gets the android solution certified wouldn't using the fire tv stick be the same secure solution. While FireOS is currently based on the Android Open Source Project platform (based on rumors and posted job openings(*) at Amazon they are moving to a platform called Vega), the underlying devi...

Re: Encryption
From what I read, there is a way for broadcasters to offer internet delivery of content in NextGen TV. It is mentioned as Broadband Channels, in the release note of the other box which they intent to release support soon (Feb 2024) At least one of the initial (back in the initial discussions about ...

Re: Encryption
What features will we offer broadcasters that use DRM? .... One thing I can think does not seem to be explicitly addressed in all the stated constraints: Will the "bound" tuner need to be in a location where it can continue to receive a signal from the transmitter (aka geo-fencing of play...

Re: HDHomeRun 4K is Nextgen TV Certified
What the broadcasters have been recently pushing is the FCC subsidizes a cheap box that converts ATSC 3.0 to a HDMI output to support existing ATSC 1.0 only TV's and then everyone can go ATSC 3.0. Not good enough. That box also needs a standard NTSC output for those still using CECBs. For the dinos...

Re: HDHomeRun 4K is Nextgen TV Certified
How do you know they won't go back to the same low VHF once they transition off of the 3.0 lighthouse transmitters? Every market is special, and it is clearly a work in progress, but all the station owners initially suggested (via vigorous hand-waving) that the long term plan is that there will be ...

Re: HDHomeRun 4K is Nextgen TV Certified
... but Channels could potentially make it work. They struck out on getting DTCP-IP licensing for CableCARD DRM, but Widevine is a totally different system with different requirements so it's not an automatic 'no'. There are always possibilities, and Channels can certainly change their plans (and m...

Re: HDHomeRun 4K is Nextgen TV Certified
I suspect a lot of people don't read the terms they agree to when participating in the Apple beta program. There's some interesting stuff there that I won't mention, but one thing I will mention is that all feedback is supposed to be submitted to Apple. FWIW, I personally am not a beta program part...

Re: HDHomeRun 4K is Nextgen TV Certified
I gave up trying my AppleTV devices as in a few weeks 17 will be the official TVOS so the app needs updating I think. SiliconDust has been somewhat consistent in saying that they will deal with vendor official release versions only (whether Apple, Google, Microsoft, etc.) for any required app updat...

Re: Recording metadata - TPeterson
That is a good start, frequent categories I have that didn't appear to be there are sports and special... and at glance you also appear to be missing some properties that would be specific for sports such as Team1 and Team2. Note to others: not all properties are always used Likely missing since I ...

Re: NextGen TV Certification testing started
OK, so there's no published spec. Can I find some example files someplace? It's something I've been meaning to document. I'll try to get something put together soon. Based on reverse engineering starting about five years ago, based on looking at the stored json, I took a stab at providing a json sc...

Re: List of Supported devices
Is there anyway I can tell if my device is handling AC-4 directly or being transcoded? If you really want to know, you can probably turn on flow instrumentation on better routers to see the traffic metrics. If your router does not have that capability, you could probably use a brute force approach ...
