Confirmed it also works with **** (No Audio)

Edit - "XBMC" is a dirty word on this forum?

Re: Unencrypted ATSC 3.0 Station will not display


VLC doesn't support the AC4 audio codec used by ATSC 3.0, so silence is to be expected with those channels.

For kicks, in VLC, you can compare Tools -> Codec Information for a few ATSC 3.0 channels and see if there are any big differences with the Kids channel. Normally you'll just see the HVEC ...

Re: Unencrypted ATSC 3.0 Station will not display


You should mention market and try another atsc3 device. In some cases it could be a transition to iptv which the app doesn't support and it can also be an issue with the station. I also suggest running a channel scan but note the dvr engine may not pick up such change for a couple of hours ...

Re: Unencrypted ATSC 3.0 Station will not display

The error, after waiting on a black screen for a bit, is:

Unable to play channel: No video data

But the other ATSC 3.0 PBS channels do play. The channel that doesn't has programming data.

In the Scan Channel menu all the PBS stations have 4 green bars. I was going to shrug it off, but, because ...

Unencrypted ATSC 3.0 Station will not display

I was using a really cheap, 20 year old, antenna that worked fine for a long time. But as ATSC 3.0 is now rolling into my area, it seemed like a good idea to upgraded.

So now I have the Antennas Direct ClearStream with a Televes Amplifier. All my local channels come in clean and clear with the ...

Re: POE versions

If there was a PoE Version, I would have paid a little extra for it. The device has to be connected to the network anyway & that's one less cable to deal with.

Re: Allow for software to look for Static internal IP


If your pc's have full access to the VLAN anyway, create an SSID on that VLAN and use it when you want to watch something. You're overcomplicating your network unnecessarily. I run a separate network for my business servers, but couldn't care less about the IoT crap. Oh and a separate VLAN for ...

Re: Allow for software to look for Static internal IP


Those are two different things. Making things work across different subnetworks does not require setting a static IP address from the device.

Re: Allow for software to look for Static internal IP

While that is understandable from a professional point of view, what is easier for the consumer/end user?

Right now, the software asks the end user to retry their scan.

Why can't it ask for the internal IP, if known, with a check box to use IP address on next start up? All a consumer knows is that ...

Re: Allow for software to look for Static internal IP


The HDHR tuners only need internet access if you use SiliconDust's software, because the device needs a token for the fetching of guide data. No other TV/DVR software that uses the HDHR requires that token, so the internet is unnecessary.


Yes, which is why using VLC to stream channels with the ...

Re: Allow for software to look for Static internal IP


Minor note... Windows forces updates, the HDHomeRun does not (there is no mechanism for our system to push a firmware update). Likewise our system doesn't manage/control the HDHomeRun outside of providing the recording tasks if you are running DVR.


The difference is who has final control.

With ...
