We are in contact with KPHO/KTVK and the company that makes their encoder and all of us are looking at it. Some very unusual combination of things since the same equipment is in use at many other stations and the app has no sync issues with them.

The signal is there but not clean enough to lock on. What kind of antenna are you using?

A Port entry is not required if the firewall is disabled, but it isn't a bad idea to set one anyway just to make sure it's always where you expect it to be, and so you can test to see if it is accessible from other devices via http://ip.address:port/ (use the actual IP address and port, of course).

Antenna only.

What programming is carried on 12.2? Gracenote does not have a listing for it and I can't find any reference anywhere as to what it actually carries.

So using the HDHOMERUN Flex 4K with a device like the current Walmart ONN pro 4k (v2) or Google TV Streamer equipped with the Amlogic S995X5 SoC (CPU) should be capable decrypting DRM because both have Widevine L1 and can play back having the Hevc and Dolby AC4 codecs, but the A3SA would have to ...

Sunday Ticket and other services that have multiview options on Android TV don't actually support multiple separate video streams. Instead, they pre-select combinations of games and encode them together into a single video stream and have the app play that, then just do some magic to let the app ...

No, they'll call them smart displays or smart monitors or make up another term. LG already sells some, but they're not available in 55" or larger sizes.

Many of the local broadcasting stations have been bought out by a few large corporations. The top 3 (Nexstar, Gray, Sinclair) own almost half of all US stations. Their market share lets them charge lucrative retransmission fees to the streaming providers (YTTV, Hulu Live, Direct TV, etc). These ...

I guess I need to simplify my question (for me to better comprehend). Is there currently a way or a future planned way to to allow the Flex 4k to decrypt Atsc3 DRM if approved by the AS3A? If so what will additional equipment needed and how will it work?

Hopefully the FCC will outlaw DRM, but ...

The rules for DRM when accessing a broadcast through a gateway device like an HDHomeRun are completely different than the rules for DRM when using a TV or set-top box. This makes some sense, as sending data over the network means someone could send it over the internet, and if one goal is to prevent ...

Which big corporations? Most of the big corporations involved are the big broadcasters and they want an immediate mandate for ATSC 3.0 tuners in TVs, a mandatory transition as soon as it is feasible, and the ability to DRM everything. Other big ones are the cable and satellite providers, and they ...

What possible reason would they have for dragging it out? It's in the best interests of everyone to have a clear path going forward. Hopefully one without DRM. It just takes time to get there because there are so many things that have to be decided and there was so much more involvement from people ...

If it's a plasma TV it's probably quite old. Many TVs from before 2010 and some from 2010 to about 2014 did not support decoding DD audio when coming in from the HDMI port, either only if it comes from the TV's built in tuner, or just not at all if it's old enough to predate the ATSC tuner mandate ...
