Re: media file type .ts or .mpg?

I am using my HDHR Flex 4k turner the same way you are, but I just use JellyFin as my main DVR to save both the ATSC 1.0 and 3.0 as a .TS file. The .ts it is easier to work with. You can also use your JellyFin to open and play the recorded files located in the HDHRDVR RECORDED tv file folder ...

Re: HDHomerun DVR not recording DRM channels??

SiliconDust has clearly identifies that their ATSC 3.0 tuners can not currently decrypt or record DRM content.
They are restricted by the A3SA as they can come up with a software solution for encrypted content, but the A3SA controls the DRM keys.

HDHR Android player/DVR SW

Is it possible to his the record button ( it turns red) and then stop the recording after 5 mins if I do not want to record the complete remainder of the show? Why is it so complicated to stop a recording in progress?

Re: Why is ATSC3.0 so unstable?

In my opinion, many of us ATSC 3.0 enthusiasts claim to have this problem or assume is is the turner device. In most of my findings is has to do with the player device such as an Android STB with incorrect sound codec settings or with your TV sound settings on PMC and not pass through to your 5.1 ...

Re: Encryption

As a viewer, what do we need to do? Does our HDHR player need to be turned on? For those of us that have other brands A3.0, should we also watch these tuners to?

I will be sure to check to see if my market of Orlando FL turns of DRM the week before the test.

AC4 5.1 and Atmos PC set up

I have a windows 11pro HTPC used with HDHR Flex 4k. I am considering an ATMOS 5.1.4 AVR with eARC HDMI 2.1. My PC has Display Port 1.2 with Intel graphics 630. I think this equals HDMI 2.0b, not sure?
I am assuming I am getting ATSC 3.0/AC4 5.1 to my AVR using Media Player Classic-HC with K-Lite ...

Re: Aage - Guide issue

I run my HDHOMERUN Flex 4k using JellyFin and Schedule Direct for the EPG. The HDHr hardware does not need any connection to SiliconDust. I also have the option to use the free 2 day EPG from SiliconDust with my JellyFin and it also works fine using a JellyFin plug in.

I also use Media Player ...

Re: Next Gen Channel Freeze

The Google Streamer uses a MediaTek MT8696 SoC which can be your issue. I am not sure it is optimized for ATSC 3.0 HEVC/AC4 like the Amlogic S905X5M5 found in the ONN 4k Pro2. You may need to consider a new streaming box from Apple or a box with Amlogic S905X5 or S905X5M5 SoCs.

Re: App Resets every night at 7PM

Good your HDHR app is up to date.
I hate to offer this advice because of the work involved......I would recommend you start by deleting and reinstalling the HDHR app. I am sure this will not fix it. I think you need to do a factory reset of the Android 12 and reinstall all your apps. Install the ...

Re: App Resets every night at 7PM

It may help to tell us what version of Android you are running and the HDHR player version.

I run the HDHR v20260826 app on my 2017 Sony 4k Smart TV running Android 9 without issue.

Re: Lip Sync/Audio Off - RTR (specific to 3.1/5.1 in Phoenix)

It may have been resolved in your market, but we would like to hear how it got fixed by SiliconDust and how they worked directly with the broadcast engineer?

Re: A hobby project I finally finished: HDHomeRun in a browser

Does this work in Windows or only linix?
I see from the GitHub it only works with ATSC 1.0. I assume because current chrome browsers can not decode AC4 soundtrack files?
I use Media Player Classic-HC with the K-Lite codec pack that includes an AC4 codec. This player will play ATSC 3.0 direct from ...

Re: Point config to Media Player Classic over VLC


You would either need to set the speaker configuration in the HDHomeRun app to passthrough or connect the PC directly to the receiver via HDMI. S/PDIF is bandwidth-limited and can only carry DD, DTS, or max 2 channels of PCM audio.


I know my set up is a bit funky, but unfortunately my AVR is ...

Re: EPG data file in .xmltv format



https://api.hdhomerun.com/api/xmltv?DeviceAuth=10AB0###
That is the Device ID, not the DeviceAuth.

You can get the DeviceAuth from http://hdhomerun.local/discover.json or http://10AB0.../discover.json

The DeviceAuth is good for 24 hours.
