Re: WDIV Signal Quality

The aux (DTX) is 1000kW at 840' above ground level, while the primary is 720kW at 1015' AGL. There is almost no difference between them except at the fringes of the coverage area and in the wedge behind the tower.

Re: BPS PLP Issue (3.0)?

Trip, have you tuned PLP0 via the CLI and set the target to forward and watched either the network rate in Config GUI or monitored via Wireshark to see if there's anything actually on there?

Re: No guide info on my prime

I'm assuming that word that was blocked out starts with a K. Are you running the current version? We have been doing some cleanup to old DVR systems. Some of the old addon versions pointed to a historical address for the guide data system that is no longer available. The current addons have been ...

Re: ATSC 3.0 disappeared

The 3.0 broadcasts in the Grand Rapids market are on low-power stations on short towers. The coverage area for the eastern one is only about 15-20 miles from the tower, which is SW of Middleville. If you live east of M-66, you're unlikely to receive it.

Re: Channel Issues... but not all?

I think it might be an issue on WFAA's side. It's coming in much worse than usual here too, while everything else seems fine.

Re: HDHR app will not start on MacOS Tahoe

Is everything wired directly to the router or are there any switches or anything else involved?

Re: Show ATSC 3.0 broadcasts?

The ATSC 3.0 broadcast on 31 (KONG) is on Queen Anne Hill, while KZJO on 36 is on Capitol Hill. KIRO on 23 and KING on 25 are on Queen Anne Hill and would be better comparisons.

Re: WDIV Signal Quality

Stations rarely make any kind of public announcement for short-term issues, especially if they are still operating from their backup facility. WDIV's problem is their backup antenna is side-mounted on the NW corner of a tower with a triangular cross-section. Service is fine if you're in most of the ...

Re: Choppy video on MacOS Tahoe

Open the Console app and select Crash Reports in the left column, and you should see the crashes listed to the right. Select the appropriate one, then just copy and paste everything at the bottom and email it to support at silicondust dot com along with a link to this thread so we know what it is.

Re: Failed: could not start stream (with Channels DVR)

Dropping it 10 or 12dBmV would be good.

Re: Billing Lost Card

The DVR subscription remains active until the expiration/renewal date. You may want to place the renewal order a day or two early to ensure uninterrupted service. The system is smart enough to not start the clock on the new year until the existing subscription ends.

Re: Encryption

I can't imagine the cable industry inventing or adopting another DRM system at this point. TV over QAM is on its way out.
