Re: TV Station Launches Multiple 4K Broadcasts OTA on ATSC 1.0

I wish more channels would do this. We have three sub-channels that broadcast in AVC in Chicago, and you can see the quality difference. At the same time, it saves bandwidth.

You can solve it yourself by accessing your HDHR through this Docker container, which transcodes the AC-4 audio to a more compat...
