Can confirm #1 happens on my FTV's as well.

PBS seems especially bad at misusing the first aired tag for some reason, duplicate recordings occur for me quite a bit.

Your files are likely missing the metadata required to the DVR to see them as valid files. This thread has some scripts and information that might be able to help you out. https://forum.silicondust.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=125&t=68701 Word of caution though, getting the correct metadata for the fil...

I wasn’t sure about discovery at first. But I do love it now and I wouldn’t want to return to grid.

+1. Grid is about the worst way to find what's on.

Looks to me they reset hours apart. The timestamp on the restart is just the start of when an epoch time starts from. Meaning they didn't restart in 1970. The actual time is a few lines later.

We really don't know what is going to happen. All I am saying is that the longer it takes for the Prime 6 to come out, the greater the possibility will be that we may not need it. If streaming is a zero cost option, and many of us already has smart TVs, Nvidia Shield, Amazon Fires, and so on, then ...

The top is the Nvidia Shield - great picture quality Well, except for the VPU bug that impacts some people with some specific (OTA) stations. I saw one report the VPU bug is fixed in Turing (I have no way to test that report). That, and you buy almost 8 4k sticks for the price of one shield on Prim...

5.1 is available when the Fire TV box/stick is connected to the receiver via HDMI and surround sound is enabled in the FireTV settings (if applicable). If it's connected to the TV and using ARC to send sound to the receiver you will not get 5.1 audio because ARC doesn't have enough bandwidth for mu...

Hi,

If you are using audio over HDMI and you turn off AC3 passthrough you should still get 5.1 audio.

This has not been my experience on FTV. There continues to be sound on all the channels, but it's clearly not surround sound.

I would guess TV mosaic uses UDP to stream from the tuner, and packets are getting dropped occasionally. I used to see this frequently running a MythTV backend from a NAS. I never figured it out at the time, but some research since then suggests increasing the network buffers, if that's even possib...

This band-aid makes my surround sound sad. :| Maybe it's just the 'auto' feature that is broken. Couldn't you change the settings to 'Always Dolby Digital'? It's the asinine way Amazon is implementing audio that's the issue. I want pass-thru to work, which you'd think would be the simplest thing, b...

Neither, it's the external HDHR-DVRUI web based stuff.

This has been broken for quite a while. There is no need worry about future recordings, those are completely handled by the SD back end. The DVR UI is just a way to visualize things.
