Re: HDHomeRun Record service only working when PC has active user session

The diagnostic logs show the record engine was running (not a starting problem), but something was blocking network communication. This strongly points to third party security software being the problem.

Re: Set max storage limit on NAS (Synology)

The HDHomeRun DVR record engine reads/writes directly to disk (it doesn't use the share). We require creating a share so that 1) the HDHomeRun DVR record engine knows where to put recordings, and 2) so you can browse the files manually with a PC if you want to.

Re: How is Signal Quality calculated?

How does it differentiate between the signal and the noise in order to get the signal to noise measurement? Take something like QAM256 which is an 16x16 grid of boxes. With perfect signal each sample is exactly in the middle of the one box it was meant to be in. The MER measurement (basically SNR f...

Re: Set max storage limit on NAS (Synology)

One approach would be to configure the NAS with two volumes, one for DVR recordings and one for general storage. Set the size of the DVR volume to 4TB.

Re: Feature Requests for Future Firmware Updates

5) Similarly, it would be nice if the discovery scan would select all PLPs at scan time so it didn't just show "(no data)" for most 3.0 signals. Or, failing that, it at least flag encrypted streams, as it appears encryption status is listed in the SLT which I believe is in PLP0 most of th...

You get audio using the Roku Media Player app with the HDHomeRun but not when using the HDHomeRun app?

Re: Request for guide improvement

Quick one first - you can turn off Slice guide in the app settings menu. If you do that pressing UP or DOWN will take you immediately to the grid guide.

Re: HDHomeRun Record service only working when PC has active user session

I can check the diagnostic logs... can you please run HDHomeRun Setup, tick "send diagnostic information" on the Advanced tab, sign out, sign back in, then let me know the Device ID of your HDHomeRun.

Re: Timeshift Thumbnail view

The HDHomeRun DVR works with FireTV and the FireTV remote. It doesn't do thumbnails.... instead it has a near-instant 30s skip forward and 10s skip back so you can move around and find where you want to go quickly.
