Re: Narrow DVB-T2 bandwidths (t1–t5) — demod support, and ATSC 3.0 tuning flexibility

You are right, I don't think there are any demods that support narrow bandwidths by default other than 1.7MHz T2. We reverse engineered how the driver was configuring the channel width on the demod then tested the performance with a new set of custom bandwidths.

One thing to note is that the tuner ...

>Are the narrow entries (t1 to t5) actually implemented in the demod, or accepted by the command parser without corresponding demod support?
Yes, supported by the demod.

>2. Is there a newer model that does support them?
No, so far it is only supported on the HDHR5-2DT/4DT.
We are considering ...

Re: Best Way to Upgrade from Ver. 20251227 / 20260908

Re: EPG data file in .xmltv format


https://api.hdhomerun.com/api/xmltv?DeviceAuth=10AB0###
That is the Device ID, not the DeviceAuth.

You can get the DeviceAuth from http://hdhomerun.local/discover.json or http://10AB0.../discover.json

The DeviceAuth is good for 24 hours.

Re: linux hdhomerun_config_gui and GTK2

hdhomerun_tui is awesome!

I added hdhomerun_tui to github to better help people find it: https://github.com/Silicondust/hdhomerun_tui

Any time an update notice is posted here I will update github to match.

Not seeing a readme - I will add one when I get a chance.
