Thank you everyone for the guidance.

- I can confirm that all devices have enabled "Sync with guide server" (which was required before the device would include DeviceAuth in the discover.json).
- From the network perspective, I'm reasonably certain there are no outbound firewall deny rules in place that would affect any devices from communicating (Last firmware was recognized and updated smoothly).
- Have logged into the HDhomerun App (v 20250316 app/20250604a ui) on a windows 11 machine on the same network as the devices.
--- All tuner devices appear in the App > settings > devices with a check-mark
--- Under App > settings > Account Information - Was logged in with the email and activation code (first 8 characters), but logged out and back in to double check (original user and activation was purchased under old email robert@fltvlabs.com)
--- not sure if it is relevant but under App > settings > Account Information > DVR Active the interface says "No"
- Used Accept-Encoding flag as recommended by nickk

Code: Select all

curl -H 'Accept-Encoding: gzip' https://api.hdhomerun.com/api/xmltv?DeviceAuth=<any_current_DeviceAuth_string>

Changing the e-mail address will change the DVR key. I have e-mailed you your new DVR key.

The new DVR code appears to have done the trick, I'm able to pull the zipped xmltv data. Thank you all for your assistance.
