Re: High Split Converter Problem

Tuning adapters are always slow. The HDHomeRun pulls a few tricks to speed up channel scanning with a conventional tuning adapter but these tricks don't work with the high-split adapters so it takes a long time.

Re: Switched Devices

Is the NAS set up with a manual IP address? If yes, you also need to enter the IP address of your DNS server (or 8.8.8.8 to use Google for DNS or 1.1.1.1 to use Cloudflare for DNS)

Re: HDHomeRun Development Ideas and Suggestions


On the screen "LiveRecorderDiscoverTasks", this screen really needs the "EPG" as one of the TABS. It so obviously missing and need to be there too.
By EPG do you mean the grid guide? (the Discover page is EPG)


Also one other thing, on the same screen, There is no "CLOSE" or EXIT , you can only ...

Re: Some old UI behaviors that still don't make sense to me


1. Why is the Upcoming recording list limited to just a few days instead of showing everything? If I select a specific program/task it shows all upcoming recordings for a few weeks. A few days is not very useful for me. I want to see upcoming sports recordings for the weekend, etc.
That could ...

Re: Why is my laptop continuously reading 20Mbps from Flex-4K?

Something on the laptop asked the HDHomeRun to tune a channel and stream the full mux unfiltered.

Nothing told the HDHomeRun to stop so it kept doing its job.

Re: Channel plays through VLC but not HDHomeRun app

There is definitely nothing there for 8.3:
ch=8vsb:183000000 lock=none ss=38 snq=0 seq=0

My guess is this channel was picked up in an earlier scan before the antenna was moved.

Can you please run a new channel scan.

Re: Channel plays through VLC but not HDHomeRun app

Can you please try the HDHomeRun app on Windows again... enable "send diagnostic information" in the Settings menu.

Try the channel again then post back with the Device ID of your HDHomeRun.

Re: Why is my laptop continuously reading 20Mbps from Flex-4K?

20Mbps (19.2Mbps + UDP/IP overhead) is what you get if you take the full mux of a physical channel.

The HDHomeRun app doesn't do this but apps that use BDA drivers often do. It is possible for the stream to continue after the app closed if the app terminated without telling the HDHomeRun combined ...

Re: streaming recorded files to a media player app


Each recorded file is a URL, e.g.:
http://hdhr-<device-id>.local/recorded/play?id=<guid>
I would like to be able to paste that into my media player of choice (VLC, etc.) and stream to the computer where the media player is located, without needing the app installed. However, this doesn't work ...
