ATSC 3.0 very slow to tune

Fixed for me @tmm1 !!!! Seems like you figured it out quick! If you don't mind me asking, what was causing the delay???

Thanks for the hard work!

One of my ATSC 3.0 Raleigh / Durham lighthouse tunes within 3-5 seconds at times now and 26 seconds just minutes later. I have access to 3 ATSC lighthouse towers.

128.1 just took 47 seconds to tune.
108.1 just took 12 seconds (Greensboro, NC Lighthouse)
105.1 just took 26 seconds to tune. Took 3-4 seconds about 10 mins ago.

Do you have 1 HDHR tuner or multiple?

How is it in the HDHR app?

HDHR app:
128.1 took 4 seconds to tune.
108.1 took 6 seconds (Greensboro, NC Lighthouse)
105.1 took 5 seconds to tune.

@troyhough Only 1 tuner

I will need tuner capture to investigate

@koltasi Please try it 20 or 30 times switching between all 3 in the HDHR app. 3 tunes is not a good sample size.

Tell me how and we'll do it. Just clips or something?

Thanks @Eric. Done. cc: @tmm1

@koltasi an you confirm what version number of the app you are running?

I believe I upgraded to 2023.10.04.1634 before the captures.

I suspect the same random peak tuning times will happen with the HDHR app. Happens with my local Fox 3.0 channel too.

What version of the client app are you using on your TV?

9.18.1700. Looks like there is a newer TestFlight. Doesn't seem to autoupdate like it used to.

I updated to new version and works wonderful. Great job, guys! Sorry I didn't catch that earlier. Thanks for the help.

@tmm1, @eric,

I tested with Boston 3.0 stations:

  • 102.1: 19 seconds
  • 125.1: 9 seconds

In both cases, that was not just getting video, but getting audio, too. It takes about 3-5 seconds for audio to kick in on any ATSC 3.0 station or recording. So, for instance, if you skip ahead on a commercial, it will take another 3-5 seconds for the audio to start back up.
