Re: Unable to communicate with server

Do you have any ad blocking systems in use, particularly anything DNS-based like PiHole or OpenDNS?

Re: Samsung UN65KS8000 audio

If you're using an Apple TV, Fire TV, or Android TV device, you disable surround sound output and it sends plain old stereo audio and it just works. On a Roku Ultra 2020/2022 model, it should do the same, but sometimes it doesn't. Any other Roku will only be able to output AC3, and then you have to ...

Re: Tampa WTSP (CBS) Goes DRM

GE 29884 Decent UHF antenna, basically rabbit ears for VHF, so that would explain reception problems on Tampa NBC, CW, CBS, Fox, and PBS, which are all on VHF. Have you ever tried with the antennas reversed, the RCA pointing towards Tampa and the GE pointing towards Ft. Myers? Everything in Ft. Mye...

Curious, what kind of antenna do you have pointed at Tampa?

Re: Encryption

As has been pointed out previously, the "broadcast encoding rules" aren't laws or regulations, they're just what the broadcasters that make up A3SA agreed to. They can change those rules at any time if the majority of the voting committee agrees to change them.

Re: Encryption

Just a reminder, "Discussion of third party products that do not utilize HDHomeRun tuners" is off-topic.

Nick will post an update when he has one. He hasn't even said anything to us yet, so he's probably several dozen pages deep.

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

We can block specific device/codec/resolution combinations on the server side. Do you see the audio only message on 1080i (CBS, NBC), 720p (ABC, Fox), and/or 480i (most everything that isn't a major network)?

Re: Recordings interrupted

Since it's a Windows PC doing the recording, there's also a good chance that the problem is software, not hardware. Do you have any third-party firewall, security, antivirus, or antimalware software installed on the PC? If so, either get rid of it, or at least make sure that it is set to exclude the...

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

Disabling the DVR will not remove the recordings. Just don't uninstall the app, because that will.

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

OK, next test, to determine if it's the combination of DVR+viewing on the MeCool that is the issue, or if it happens with any DVR. Restart the MeCool to get it into a working state, turn off the DVR on it, and install the HDHomeRun Software for Windows on the PC ( https://download.silicondust.com/hd...

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

Do you see any issues with live TV in the HDHomeRun app?

If you watch the same recording simultaneously on the MeCool box and something else, does the second device experience any issues when the MeCool goes to the audio only screen?

Re: Radio in Pahrump NV

That makes sense. The next big industry show is NAB, and that's in Vegas from Apr 13-17, so they might return for that.
