Yes, the DVR is taking multiple tuners. I miss the sharing feature that was working last when I was transcoding.
Also still not working for me. Three Extends, all set to none (no trnscoding). DVR and AppleTV list them in same priority order.
A new alpha DVR build is available with a major rewrite of the sharing engine, with optimizations to improve memory and CPU usage while tuners are being shared.
This build also has the fix for EXTEND sharing when clients are set to no transcoding.
curl -XPUT http://127.0.0.1:8089/updater/check/2017.04.12.0146
(2 Extends, no transcoding)i just installed it and started a recording then went to the app (beta) and chose the channel and selected âWatch Nowâ. took 2 tuners:
Tuner 0 Channel 593.000 MHz
Tuner 1 Channel 593.000 MHz
switching back to heavy fixes sharing.
If we install will the future ânon-alphaâ DVR builds overwrite or will it only pickup alpha builds?
It just picks up with the next build. That works fine.
So we would lose the alpha code with the update?
I should add that it worked fine if I was watching the channel when the recording started.

Upgrade to 2017.04.12.2130 for a fix.
Thereâs a new pre-release v2017.04.13.0150 build available now with a fix for the panic bug, and for the EXTEND transcoding tuner-sharing bug.
I have installed 2017.04.13.0150
If I start a channel from the AppleTV latest beta (4.11.105) and the same channel via the DVR web page, itâs still using two tuners on my Extend (transcoding set to none). This is true no matter which I start first.
Note: the HDHomerun tuner status shows the clients for both tuners are the same DVR IP address.
Also note, if I start the same channel in two DVR web pages, the tuner IS SHARED. I cannot try the same with two AppleTVs as I only have one.
The web player is hard-coded to use the mobile transcoding profile with the EXTEND, so sharing would only kick in if the ATV was also using mobile.
The hard-coded value is from the earliest version of the player⌠perhaps it makes sense to use the same setting as recordings do now?
Iâm worried that making this change now would break remote viewing for anyone with an Extend who doesnât want his recordings to be transcoded and has limited up bandwidth.
Iâd prefer that you wait until the iOS app supports the DVR. Presumably the transcoding selected in the iOS app would not affect recording.
Both recordings and live stream should be transcoded by the dvr when the web player is used (using whatever resolution and bitrate that was selected by the user on the settings page for the web-ui). The extend transcode is not nessessary for streaming and so the web-ui streaming should recieve the same video from the HDHR as the recordings do.
I only use the web remote for watching internally on non-apple clients, since the green apps donât allow static IPs, so I would like to see variable rate. I also have plenty of bandwidth for it. My expectation is that iOS will be my remote viewer, will handle the oauth better and have all the controls that I donât have now. I only use it in a pinch when remote.
@tmm1 I was very confused with my previous reply to this. I forgot that the web player is a separate setting!
Yes, please do as you suggest and have the Extend use the record settings for tuning requests by the web player.
So I recently reverted back to a single HDHomeRun Prime. In following this thread, has the sharing feature been built into the Apple Store versions of the ATV client and the current DVR client (QNAP 2017.04.28). If so, when the DVR and Apple TV client are both watching the same channel, how many tuners should be utilized? Iâm seeing 2 tuners occupied, both with the same channel streaming. Any thoughts on this would be appreciated.
The tuner sharing is built into the latest DVR, but still only available in the beta tvOS app.
