In my use case in the Columbia, Maryland area, I liked the HDHR Flex 4K because I could place my antenna where I needed it and all my TVs and devices could watch using it. The basement TV benefits the most. But I also like sitting out front and on my deck in the back and watch shows on a tablet. How...

This paragraph is interesting to me: The new A3SA DVR specification supports in-home streaming to applications hosted on common media consumption platforms such as Android, Fire, Roku, WebOS, and Tizen, with iOS support in process. The spec supports dynamic memory provisioning for media playback (an...

So, I guess we’re now waiting to hear back from SD on whether the path to approval with their gateway devices playing DRM live is clearer with this document in hand?

I’m not sure why they didn’t mention that they were close to releasing a spec relevant to SD’s product line when they met a month ago.

So if I have a Fire Stick 4K on Samsung TVs, is this considered an Android solution in this context?

If it is, and I hope it is, does it suddenly become less clear when Amazon transitions to the new OS I think I was reading about called Vega? Or is that just for Fire TVs?

It seems like for the amount of trouble to go through to sideload, you could just buy a cheap Fire Stick 4K and you’d even have AC-4 through that path.

And yeah, I know, currently nothing special about supporting AC-4 on ATSC 3.0. And not even relevant for ATSC 1.0.
