Re: KLKN-TV Lincoln, NE - 8.6 Bounce missing Guide Data

I am seeing that data is currently present. Our guide provider most likely just processed the update today.

Re: Scribe Quatro Reboots and Becomes Unusable if Recording Set

Any working 2.5" 7mm mechanical drive will be fine, and decent quality SSDs will work. I usually go with Crucial MX500 drives when I need a SATA SSD. I would avoid anything using QLC flash and any sketchy Chinese drives. We've tested most of them and they're all terrible, either just consistent...

Re: Optimizing OTA HDHR Signal Strength/Quality

The signal strength for any particular channel doesn't really matter that much when an amplifier is in use. Overload happens because of the total combined power going in, so assuming an LTE filter that blocks the 600MHz band is in there, I'd probably just try to get the strongest signal to around 11...

Re: SiliconDust LTE Filter Signal Loss

Televes is a European company primarily designing antennas for use in Europe, and Europe is way behind the US in reallocating spectrum to cellular service. The older models with LTE filters blocks above 790MHz, most of which was reallocated away from TV in the US in 1983. The newer ones block above ...

Re: Scribe Quatro Reboots and Becomes Unusable if Recording Set

The drive isn't completely dead, but it is starting to go bad, and there's at least one place on the drive where it is unable to write to. This is causing the device to reboot, and when it reboots, it won't be available for use until it scans all the recordings, and that looks like it's taking about...

Re: Freeze on Start Up

It looks like this is related to an issue we're tracking internally where the app has problems if there is a mismatch in the parental control rating between the 2 different places where it might be located. This eats up a lot of CPU time and it can't keep up with playback. Engineering is aware of th...

Re: HD Homerun freezes (nearby lightning)

I understand the "politics" of wanting to support ROKU, but can an *engineering* company (which SD has historically claimed it is) justify saying ROKU is anything more than a "tolerated" player, and not a "recommended" player? I certainly don't consider Roku a recommen...

Re: DVR playback stops randomly - craigwillie

Your Android TV device briefly disconnected from your home network at those times. When the network link drops, the OS is forcibly closing any active connections associated with it, including the connection to the HDHomeRun and the diagnostic data logging to our server.

Re: List of Supported devices

AC-4 is covered by the same license that covers Atmos, so it's not a royalties thing (though that shared license does help with it starting to show up in many newer devices with Atmos support). I haven't seen anything that confirms it is possible to bitstream AC-4 though. If it can't be bitstreamed ...

Re: HD Homerun freezes (nearby lightning)

Lightning generates a lot of noise across a wide range of frequencies. TV broadcast signals handle this better than AM radio, where you can hear every lightning strike within like 100 miles, but if the noise is strong enough, it may briefly interfere with reception of the broadcast signals, resultin...

Re: 14su-d keokuk ia channel changes

There won't be listings for MTRSPT1. It's primarily a streaming channel so the company that operates the channel doesn't supply guide data to the providers, and all of the broadcasts are on stations owned by the company that is probably the single worst in existence when it comes to updating the gui...
