Thank you for the (as usual) great advice.

Re: I can't find my most recent recording on my computer


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 ...

Re: I can't find my most recent recording on my computer

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 can't find my most recent recording on my computer

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 ...

I told you to wait for informed opinions. :D

Re: Unable to play channel: No Video Data

I am NOT an expert here by any means, so I would wait for an informed answer from somebody who actually knows what they are talking about. :D
I SUSPECT the channels you can not watch are DRM "protected" channels, which are a giant pain in the butt for Silicon Dust products. DRM "protection ...

Re: Encryption

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.

Re: Encryption

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

Re: Encryption




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 ...

Re: Encryption

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 ...

Re: Encryption



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 ...

Re: Encryption

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.
