DrSmith has summed it up perfectly.

To this point, Pearl even filed an Amicus brief when LG appealed the ruling in their patent infringement case. A case which made LG reconsider including ATSC 3.0 tuners in their TVs, something they still do not include to this day.

Again I ask which is easier/cheaper a redesign or being dragged through the muck.


Because, the chip they use doesn't matter ultimately. They are just going to complain about something else and move the goalposts. Pearl's assertions are wrong and they are trying to play it up to force a ATSC 3.0 ...

Ok, so I'm a bit unclear here. I'm an owner of HDHomeRun FLEX 4K.

Is my device going to be able to encrypt the DRM channels?

If not, I'll be selling it for something else that can.


We are still moving forward with DRM support for Android clients. A3SA has not yet given us a path forward ...
