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.

Re: fed up
Jason is mostly correct. Your chances of getting a CableCARD are slim. However, the level of DRM varies by market. You should be ready to accept that nearly every channel you want is DRM-encumbered, and just be happily surprised when one is not. It is sad to say, but the only real market for non-WMC...

Re: Super Bowl in 4K HDR
Unless I'm mistaken, the CBS has said that the 4K broadcast is going to be upscaled from the 1080P broadcast; it will not natively be filmed in 4K

Re: HTTP API Documentation
libhdhomerun - typically the only thing you use libhdhomerun for these days is the discover API in hdhomerun_discover.h. Everything else is done using HTTP. I disagree with this characterization. If you use HDHR tuners with more than one application, or you need non–ClearQAM, or want to use ATSC 3....

Re: HTTP API Documentation
As an oldtimer, I didn't recognize HDHomerun_config by its new name. That utility, of course, does provide (after a rather lengthy delay) a tuner-specific lineup. There is no new name. hdhomerun_config is simply the plain command line interface to libhdhomerun. libhdhomerun has always been built as...

Re: Outdoor PoE Tuner
You could always use an outdoor enclosure and couple it with a POE splitter. SD's tuners are already so sensitive to power issues, why would you want them to further complicate matters by adding additional power problems to the mix. The solution already exists, it just requires 2 extra pieces of equ...

Re: Use HDHomeRun when there's no Internet??
There is nothing stopping the tuner from working without an internet connection. The problem is that the HDHomeRun app does not work without an internet connection.
The solution is to use different software which does not have this limitation.

Re: Across Multiiple Networks
Many TV manufacturers offer models that allow a user/owner to setup an IPTV source; SiliconDust TECH units allow you to specify tuners to certain frequencies/channels at startup, and broadcast those full muxes; using something like DVBlast to filter the individual PIDs into unique streams and serve ...

Re: Across Multiiple Networks
For a MDU, wouldn't a TECH unit multicasting (and using something like MuMuDVB or DVBlast) be a better fit for this type of situation? You can provide IPTV STBs, or perhaps a main TV pre-configured for the system, much like how hotels do it.

Re: Tuner lock stuck
You can probably set up TVHeadend to use the HDHomeRun's m3u's playlist. It would take a few more manual steps, but it will avoid using UDP. While definitely true (and nearly a requirement with Prime/encrypted cable and ATSC 3.0), you will lose the ability to use a single tuner for multiple sub-cha...

Re: US OTA channel scans to 51
The ideal would be … The ideal would be to allow the user to override the automatic scans. Channels could be added/excluded by frequency/RF channel and PID; virtual channel numbers could be overridden to allow for multiple channels that can both be received but present the same virtual number. Of c...
