I'm pretty sure that > 2/3 of my OTA video spectrum is already being wasted on infomercials and very old reruns. Obsolete encoding is not the problem, IMHO. We desperately need new content to keep any ATSC version relevant.


I've watched an industry I spent 50 years working in rapidly move to ...

Hopefully this will be done by February 2028

I find it interesting that nowhere in this article is 4K mentioned as one of the benefits of ATSC 3.0. It is only alluded to as "delivering superior picture ...

In a recent episode of Lon.tv, he discussed a report from the FCC regarding ATSC 3.0. The report was about the ongoing discussions of the various industry and consumer groups about all things ATSC 3.0. I assume, though I may be wrong, that these are the discussions that SD has been involved in for ...

And it appears to be vapor ware. I can't find it anywhere. If it doesn't have DRM it might only be available overseas.

Found the manual. To watch on your "personal electronic device (PED)" the stb functions as a hot spot. You need to change your wifi connection off your home internet. That would make it pretty locked down which would satisfy A3SA. I'll pass since it would take my phone or tablet off the internet and ...

Saw some discussion on the "Channels" app with AppleTV and wanted clarification.

If I have a HDHR 4k Flex --> router --> AppleTV --> Channels App, can I watch the DMR 3.0 channels live?

Or was this being discussed only as a preferable 1.0 setup...


There are NO apps that will decrypt DRM ...

What's this about?

https://tvnewscheck.com/tech/article/mediaproxy-adds-a3sa-compliant-decryption-feature-for-atsc-3-0/

Broadcasters use recording software to insure compliance. It records not only what aired but captioning, loudness, quality and other things. This is purely for the industry ...

Recording is only half of the DRM dilemma. The other half is to stop streaming from a tuner to an app, ANY app. There are no apps approved, only hardware with an HDMI port.

I have been keeping up with this thread for months and honestly don't care about the delays as much as the censorship. Imagine if you posted a message on a Google forum about how the Pixel phone is better than the iPhone and then the word changes to i&hon# or ******, even though you were not ...

The TV stations in my closest market have reduced their transmit power so much that I can no longer receive ATSC 1.0 signals at all, and only one of the ATSC 3.0 signals is being transmitted unencrypted. The ATSC signals are being transmitted at a greater power level or they are more stable here ...

...with ATSC 3.0 content that is simulcast with corresponding ATSC 1.0 content...

The language here is very tricky. A scenario exists where, in 2027, the FCC reviews the substantially similar simulcasting rule and decides an ATSC 3.0 station can end its 1.0 simulcast on the host station. This ...

Once niikk has a chance to review and digest the specifications/blueprints, I, like most of us out on the thread, hopes he'll provide a breakdown of what the A3SA specs are, and what functionality we have today with ATSC 1.0, that we won't have with ATSC 3.0. Will the HDHR ATSC 3.0 tuners work ...

I don't think Lon and Tyler posted this. It doesn't help.


Not sure this has any relevance here, but the people over on AVS Forum's ATSC 3 thread are likely to be interested.


There are posters a few pages back asking ...
