Re: How to force two recordings (antenna + cable) of same content?

Wow, that's a detailed response. Let me see if I parsed it correctly: 1. Engine is built to prevent recording two copies of the same show. Even if intentional, it may have caused oddities in past, so not a supported scenario via UI. 2. Providing a seconds-based duration within the URI (e.g., http://...

Re: new Flex4k -- low signal strengths

I really appreciate that you told it straight, especially as the news isn't what folks want to hear. Thank you! I have two follow-up questions, but first: Yes , you pinpointed the neighborhood. I had thought we had fairly good LoS, being at 400' elevation, with no obvious hills (although the trees a...

new Flex4k -- low signal strengths

Setup a medium directional antenna in my attic (~25' AGL; ~7' above insulation, 2' below apex of roof). I adjusted antenna to point ~280 (vs. true north, ~W) per antennaweb.org / rabbitear, and installed the silicondust 5G filter ... a single new 100' quad-shielded RG6 cable from antenna direct to t...

How to force two recordings (antenna + cable) of same content?

I've just added a Flex 4k to my setup, which includes a SERVIO and Prime. I'd like to record the superbowl both from 1007 (cable's retranmission of broadcast TV, via the Prime) and from 107.1 (original broadcast signal, via the Flex 4k). I was able to set tasks to record each channel. However, only ...

Re: Recommendations for smooth introduction of Flex 4k to existing setup

Ok, thanks. I will have to keep it on a separate network segment for initial setup and configuration then. I appreciate your response ... it helps me plan the rollout. And if things go well, I may eventually cut the cord for local channels. Local provider only charges $10 for "limited basic&quo...

Recommendations for smooth introduction of Flex 4k to existing setup

I have a Prime and ServIO, and they have served my family well. My family and I almost exclusively use the xbox HDHomeRun client. Recently, I've purchased a Flex 4k. I'm looking to setup / troubleshoot / align antennas without impact to the current setup, and then add it after I'm sure it's working ...

Re: Servio - "Storage: Storage filesystem fault"

Sorry for the delay. Yes , the new SSD formatted successfully, and has been recording shows since that post without any noticable issue. I could not find a replacement SERVIO for sale anywhere, so I bought a Flex 4K, as it has a USB port for external storage and seems able to be used for the same p...

Re: List of Supported devices

The HDHomeRun app uses the AC4 support that is built into the player device. If there is no AC4 support the HDHomeRun app falls back to using our cloud transcode service which transcodes to stereo audio. This thread discusses player devices with built in AC4 support (which reminds me I should edit ...

Servio - "Storage: Storage filesystem fault"

Hardware: Prime CC + Servio Client: XBOX App Can you review the diagnostics that were uploaded (any over the last couple weeks)? Specifically, is the storage likely dead? Background Over the past few weeks, while watching TV or starting new recordings, the video would just stop suddenly. Today, thin...
