On my Amazon TV there is a free app which works well, although it sometimes loses signal on HD channels. Native HDHomeRun software: As mentioned above, I'm having a problem with it on my Mac, but have installed Kodi and the HDHomeRun add-on and it works perfectly. I may reinstall it at a later date, but for now. Plex DVR is free insofar as no subscription is required, but I'd stick with Plex and pay an annual subscription if they did things properly. A bizarre approach in my opinion, great for pot luck, but useless as a central hub of your TV pleasure. Likewise you probably can't successfully search for a programme you know exists, even if you know it's on and when it's on. If you want to see what's on BBC One tonight at 8pm, you can't. Plex DVR offers categories to choose from, such as News, or Movies. Use with Plex: I love Plex, I use it each and every day, but if you are buying the HDHomeRun for use with Plex DVR, be aware that live TV is limited and there's no EPG to speak of.
Their tech team are being very helpful so I'm hopeful of a resolution. Worked fine on day one, but it's currently fairly useless. I am currently liaising with SiliconDust regarding their HDHomeRun app on Mac, where I have an issue with dropouts. On OS of your choice (I'm a Apple person, but there are versions for Windows, Mac, Android, NAS/Linux and FreeBSD) download and install the HDHomeRun software. Installation was a breeze though Plug network cable into HDHomeRun and router or switch plug in aerial plug in power supply. As far as I'm aware, no ISP (Virgin, BT, TalkTalk etc) provide a set top box that allows you to transmit live TV or recordings around the home to any device? There's only one TV in the house (in the lounge) connected to an Amazon Fire TV, and there's an iPad in kitchen, bedroom, Mac computer in office etc, so if those could access recording from a central point, that would be great. I took a punt on the HDHomeRun, mainly because I was enthralled with the idea of "cutting the cord" as Plex's almost frenetic marketing machine has been extolling these past months. Mac Mini, various iPads, iPhone and Amazon Fire TV, Apple TV Plex (with Plex Pass) is used to serve all non-iTunes media ITunes serving films and TV shows across network to iDevices including Apple TV Mac Mini: used as a central multimedia server, connected to an 8-drive Synology NAS. This review on Amazon was the decider for me to hold fire for a while:Ī brief explanation of my house network topology: I looked into it, seems the software is a long way off.
