Re: Fox’s World Cup Coverage

On a live sporting event, you have dozens of cameras all feeding back to one big switching board and you have to be able to record all of that to disk for replays as well as control what is going out live to the viewers. Just a massive amount of data running through there, which is why real 4K on ...

Re: New Channel Notification

That sounds like a useful feature, but I'm not sure how it would be implemented in the device and app in a way that won't annoy people. We'll talk it through at our next planning meeting.

Re: Fox’s World Cup Coverage

Everything I'm seeing indicates 1080p HDR upscaled to 4K HDR on Fox One and Fox Sports apps and the usual pay TV providers only. I can't find a single reference to NextGen TV or ATSC 3.0 in any of the press releases. Business as usual. And AI is garbage.

Re: New FCC filing by Silicondust

Yes, a ruling will eventually happen. It's like building a freeway, there's a lot of public involvement that has to happen before the shovels hit the dirt. At least there's no environmental impact statement needed for this. :lol:

We have to reassign the listings any time the broadcaster changes things. That is now done for yours.

Re: Two broadcasters using the same Virtual Channel in San Francisco Market.

What programming is on the 20.1 on RF 21? I assume the one on 32 is Estrella TV.

Re: Using MAC for Storage

If it's only a couple, you can just connect the drive back to the FLEX, go to http://hdhomerun.local/, click on Recorded Files, then the show, then one of the episodes. Let it finish downloading, then repeat for the others. Best to just do one at a time. Once downloaded, move them into the ...

Not seeing any issues with the listings and not seeing any errors reported in the app logs. Can you reboot the TV and check again?

Re: Phoenix 31.4 RetroTV off by 3 hours

31.4 updated to use the listing from LA, which appears to be 3 hours behind the generic Retro TV listing. Listings added for the others.

Re: Tech3-CC HTTP streaming to VLC - 404, no play

If the channels have VCT data (names and numbers) within the stream, which you would see on the Channel Lineup page, v33.1. If not (they show up in the 5000s and Unknown), and the service you want is on RF channel 33, program 1, use ch33-1.

Re: DRM off?

The primary ongoing cost is power. Phoenix's big ATSC 3.0 host KASW operates at 20.44kW of transmitter power output. A web search tells me a good digital transmitter might be 45% efficient, so figure they're burning 45.5kW of SRP's power, or 1092 kWh/day. SRP commercial power averages out to about 8 ...

Re: New FCC filing by Silicondust


The problem is ATSC holding back modern codecs on ATSC 1.0 for the purpose of selling us ATSC 3.0.
Is seems they've never heard of the OSI model.

The ATSC organization published standard A/72 in 2015 to document use of H.264/AVC in ATSC 1.0 broadcasts. The problem is that many TVs don't support ...
