Yep, I have switched back to my lg tv with atsc 1.0 because the picture is so much better than what i am getting with HDHomeRun. Still a work in progress. Broadcasters might try to cram a lot of stuff into the new signal and to heck with the viewers. Hard to say because it is so new. I will keep testing the HDHomeRun from time to time to see if the picture and frame rate have improved. I am sure the HDHomeRun receiver is doing it’s job. I wish I could figure out why it takes 1-5 minutes for the signal to connect. And why I have to change the station a dozen times before it picks up. Am I doing something wrong?jasonl wrote: ↑Sun Nov 15, 2020 7:23 pmReplying to your post from the other thread here since it's a Dallas-specific thing. You are correct, all 3 of the 1080p channels on KSTR are being transmitted at a reduced framerate (49.2's is correct). I'm trying to get the station to do something about it, but so far they don't seem to think there's a problem. It's very evident if you put an NFL game on 4.1 or soccer game on 23.1 or 49.1 from the legacy ATSC broadcast side by side with the ATSC 3 broadcast.

Re: ATSC 3.0: Dallas
The framerate problem isn't intentional as far as I can tell. There's just something somewhere that is dropping frames that shouldn't be. Playback starting seems to take a while because a lot of apps have a 5 second timeout to receive data, and it can take longer than that depending on precisely where the stream is when you start watching.

Re: ATSC 3.0: Dallas
Just tried tuning in the Dallas HEVC stations using the Windows 10 app.
The app appears to be defaulting to the ATSC 1.0 channels on the known HEVC stations.
The Config GUI shows all the signals on Channel 34 (the transmitter where the HEVC Channels 49.1, 49.2, 23.1 and 4.1 originate) are coming in at 100% signal quality but with a symbol quality that bounces back and forth from 0 to 100%; it would appear to be an issue with the transmission facility.
A rescan of the channel lineup on my tuner detected 80 channels (about average for what I've been getting) but no HEVC channels are listed.

Re: ATSC 3.0: Dallas
Same here... No HEVC channels anywhere. At least now I can get channel 4 right away...LOLflapj4cks wrote: ↑Thu Nov 19, 2020 3:38 pmThis is exactly what I am experiencing today as well.waltzwirko wrote: ↑Thu Nov 19, 2020 12:49 pm Just tried tuning in the Dallas HEVC stations using the Windows 10 app.

Re: ATSC 3.0: Dallas
Am now picking up Channel 8. Started yesterday, but may have been there earlier. I haven't been paying a lot of attention to rescans lately.
Anyone else getting Channel 8 now? Have they started to broadcast on UHF?

Re: ATSC 3.0: Dallas
A month or so back, Tegna (WFAA's parent company) bought KMPX, which is RF30 (UHF). As of yesterday, they added a 720p simulcast of WFAA to KMPX's signal as channel 8.8.
Re: ATSC 3.0: Dallas
Wow, that's what I am seeing then. Channel 8 VHF was never picked up where I am located. At least not by my antennas.
Re: ATSC 3.0: Dallas
That's great news. WFAA has been so hit and miss for me.
I'd read it was coming, but I expected it to take months.
Re: ATSC 3.0: Dallas
Re: ATSC 3.0: Dallas
The hevc channels for several days has had symbol quality on for 1 sec and then off for 1 sec, no way is the tuner going to lock on that.
