Re: Guide Data Date is wrong.

News programs typically always use the original date of first broadcast. What causes it to record is the "new" flag if you have a rule set for the series. But from what I can see from gracenote is that the 3 you mentioned are marked as new so they should have recorded.
Also keep in mind that date ...

Re: Blocking Hdhomerun traffic

If you have a dvr engine running (i.e. your servio) all live is played through the dvr engine. In theory if the app doesn't get a channel list it shouldn't play live as it doesnt know the channels but since ipv6 support in the devices many have issues blocking broadcsst discover... you may also need ...

Re: Blocking Hdhomerun traffic

If you have a dvr engine (other than flex/scribe as it would be same ip as hdhr) it will stream from the ip of the engine.

Also dont forget about blocking both ipv4 and ipv6. And you will also typically need a smart switch as the routers function is to control wan/lan communication, generally not ...

Re: Silicondust LPTV


What does this mean to a consumer?
As far as the thread is concerned, more stations regardless of whether or not they are the ones from SD and you are within range to receive them (they are low powered after all) and in most cases have an antenna that is good for low vhf (think very large as in ...

Re: Silicondust LPTV

For what its worth, I was told this long ago about shaw butte, 3 months later my signal levels dropped from -10dBm to around -33dBm which is around what most my majors are from south mountain show. So I do personally believe it was dropped but always mention such supposedly exists as I have never ...

Re: Silicondust LPTV

I'm about 5 miles (NNW) from the channel 7 proposal in Phoenix but it looks like I may not even be able to pick it up due to the heart shaped pattern. I just got a smartkom, which actually helped me out with several channels, and it seems to be begging me to attach a low vhf antenna to one of its ...

Re: Scroolbar Issue in 20260115b

To me, Tasks is the only thing that needs a scrollbar, but most will probably never use one. I prefer managing my tasks outside of the app so it doesn't make that much difference to me. Everything else (in app) is done through 10 foot interface so a scrollbar never comes into play, however those ...

Re: HDHomeRun 4K is Nextgen TV Certified

If your atsc3 channels are encrypted they will not currently work with the hdhomerun and the current consumer apps (in theory there are commercial $$$$$$ apps that can possibly work). It can receive unencrypted atsc3 content as well as whatever your duo can receive.(assuming US model duo since you ...

Re: XMLTV guide data

When you purchase the dvr subscription, you should get an email with a code... it used to be clicking on a link on that email would be all one needed to do but years ago most browsers blocked connection to your local devices from a remote site so now activation is done in the HDHomeRun app... see ...

Re: XMLTV guide data


Hello I have a dvr subscription may I have epg url/api key for tv guide? Thx in advance


Access to the API's is given via the DeviceAuth of the device and typically changes every 8 hours unique to your devices.

The device has to be a modern device (I believe not just legacy as legacy devices ...

Re: Encryption


Pardon my complete lack of understanding here... but is that why the CableCard HDHR won't work on AndoridTV devices?


No

Simple reason is with cablecard and dtcp-ip that is 100% based on client device and nothing to do with hdhr. Google dropped an api used to verify the client device which is ...

signed up for this and deployed a python app that will query and download for me. however can someone explain why the tvg-logo is not in the hdhomerun m3u and only in the xmltv? I believe you should add these to the EXTINF data.

Re: XMLTV guide data

Just to be clear, you are using the DeviceAuth(s) of the tuner for the "key" (changes every 8 hours and on reboot of hdhr, also requires device to have internet access) and not just mykey for the "key" and you also subscribe to the dvr service and you have a modern tuner that supports the dvr.
