So here are my questions.
1) Can (or will) WBNX ...

Thank you for the (as usual) great advice.
Quote of the week: "due to a lot of open-source software drama."
Thanks again!

You have two Windows DVRs running, one on 192.168.1.117 and one on 192.168.1.163.

INDEED I DO. It's a long story, but for some reason I have used the same location for Silicon Dust recordings on two computers in order to keep them backed up. Somehow the .163 is no longer an exact mirror of the ...

Bad News.
I plugged my Servio back in, and as expected, the video file isn't there. Or at least I can't see it. Pretty sure it wasn't plugged in when I recorded the program.
And I can't find it in my computer's specified location either. I am certain the recorded video belongs on my computer's "D ...

I recently recorded an ATSC 3.0 (non-DRM of course) broadcast. It plays back perfectly, sound and all. Shows up in the HDHomeRun app along with every other recording I have recorded in the past. They also still play just fine.
BUT, I can not find the most recent recording in the same location in my ...

It seems to me that SiliconDust, through their filing, has proven beyond any doubt that ATSC 3.0 proponents have made absolutely absurd and disingenuous (to be kind) arguments in order to justify DRM.

In my eyes, Nick offered some very encouraging news regarding DRM I obtained while watching a Lon Seidman's youtube post.

I think this is HUGE. I would love for some SiliconDust folks to respond to what happened yesterday,

I personally think AntennaManPA did a much better job. Lon might have given the impression that any old TV would easily work with an ATSC 3.0 signal.
But I personally thank both of them for their tireless efforts. I hope the FCC folks actually paid some attention. Will be interesting to see ...

Lon Seidman and Antenna Man met with the FCC...

I like these parts of the document best.

Not allowing DRM on public airwaves is a solution. It is the solution that would be best for the US
consumer and for device makers.......
To stop applying DRM encryption broadcasters simply need to untick the DRM config option on the
station video encoders ...

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 ...

FANTASTIC response Nick! Detailed and complete, and even I could understand it. I think any FCC commissioner could understand it as well.

I took the liberty of stealing this post from the AVS forum. I enjoyed reading them as well as your excellent response.

A couple of new public interest ...

We're getting enough disinformation and FUD from Pearl that we don't need it on our forum as well. We have already addressed this. We are still working on DRM. There is no new information that we are ALLOWED to share at this time. I want to scream to everyone who will listen about the bullshit we ...

Read it and weep. Doesn't this mean that without major changes Silicon Dust tuners will NEVER be able to handle encrypted signals?
