Longtime HDHomeRun User & Test Engineer Requesting PRIME 6 Beta Acces

Post by TomCanter »

Hi SiliconDust Team,

I’m writing to express my strong interest in joining the beta program for the upcoming HDHomeRun PRIME 6 (HDHR5-6CC).

I’ve been a dedicated HDHomeRun user since 2018, maintaining an active DVR subscription (ID #529437) for over seven years. I’ve consistently renewed my subscription, most recently on August 21, 2024, and have relied on your CableCARD-based solutions as a core part of my home media setup.

Beyond being a loyal customer, I bring a professional background as a test engineer with decades of experience in structured testing, regression analysis, and feedback-driven development. I’ve contributed detailed technical feedback in the past and would be excited to apply that same rigor to help refine the PRIME 6 during its beta phase.

I currently have a stable CableCARD setup and am well-equipped to test across multiple platforms and network environments. I’d be honored to support the team by providing actionable insights and helping ensure a smooth launch.

Please let me know if there’s a formal application process or any additional information I can provide.

Thanks for continuing to support the CableCARD community and for building such a reliable platform.

Though the https://info.hdhomerun.com/info/prime page still states such is under development, I believe they officially cancelled development on that model about 4.5 years ago.

I don't remember the exact timing, but yes it's long dead, and it looks like it has now been scrubbed from that page.
