Re: Encryption

Got it. Thank you. Is there a particular reason why it couldn't do the same for live TV also? 1) Recording works by TV show/episode so it only matters that it is the same episode, not that the channel is 100% the same. 2) Thinking it would be confusing if you select channel 102.1 and it tunes or ju...

Re: Encryption

Speaking of that first post in this thread, about the Flex 4K under the ATSC 3.0 DRM: subheading, it says "If an ATSC 3.0 channel is DRM encrypted the HDHomeRun FLEX 4K will use the ATSC 1.0 version of the channel." I just tested this on my Flex 4K by tuning to ATSC 3.0 DRM'd channel 107....

Re: HDHomeRun RECORD time source on Windows DVR?

The HDHomeRun DVR does not use the local clock for recordings so it doesn't matter how it is set. Instead it uses a free-running timer and the UTC time it gets from our servers. The HDHomeRun app applies your local timezone offset for displaying times. While it won't affect recordings the log report...

Re: Black screen with "Audio only", etc.

We just confirmed and fixed an issue where you might get a black screen audio-only message when the broadcaster is sending multiple PMTs on the same PID. The situation is timing sensitive and not seen on all devices. I don't know if this is the problem you are experiencing but I would recommend inst...

Re: Recordings interrupted

The long shows the HDD is sometimes not writing data fast enough. There are repeated "Filesystem: wasync excessive lag" warnings and then the recording fails. The warning means the data is arriving from the tuner faster than the HDD is writing it to disk. Most of the time the HDD is keepin...

Re: HDHomeRun Flex 4K ATSC 3.0 Next GenTV Tuner

1) In the last bullet of the recent post I see that SiliconDust will "plan to offer" an ATSC solution that may "block the user from recording the channel" or "block the user from viewing the channel via their home network" among other concessions. Have I read this corr...
