Direct. I will send some diagnostics on a few tunes now! Thanks
Edit: Ok I just tuned the 4 ATSC3 channels 2 times each and submitted diagnostics after each time. On a side note, Ch 115.1 tunes in very quickly (3-4 seconds). It's the only channel I never watch unfortunately. Hopefully you see why the other 3 take forever to tune while that one is quick!
Yes - gigabit cat 6 to a Synology 218+ with 6 gigs of ram. It takes about 6 seconds to acquire a signal. It records fine, Sorry the picture is not the best - taken while watching the recording. The recording playback was immediate.
it takes 16 seconds to acquire the signal from my local CBS station, WWL. If I hit record from the guide it records without hesitation(because I am already tuned to the station). All my wife's shows are queued for the rest of the night on 1.0. I will pick something that is on in the middle of the night and let you know tomorrow.
16 seconds to tune WWL in Channels DVR. do you have the HDHR app on any of your devices on the LAN? Try tuning it with the HDHR app 4 or 5 times, how long does it take to tune? Now try 4 or 5 times with the Channels DVR app to compare.
The stations which are slow advertise two audio tracks but only one has data. The app waits to receive second audio until finally giving up. SD confirmed this is a known issue with some broadcasts. We will look into workarounds to speed this up.
Using the HDHR program on my computer, I get an "unable to play channel, no video data" on all the 3.0 feeds. The unencrypted ones play fine through the channels web interface on my computer. Interesting.......
I say you definitely have a problem you should post in Silicondust forum. Or you do not have the HEVC extension Installed on your computer,
HEVC Extension ...
Play High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) videos in any video app on your Windows 10 device. These extensions are designed to take advantage of hardware capabilities on some newer devicesā including those with an Intel 7th Generation Core processor and newer GPU to support 4K and Ultra HD content. For devices that donāt have hardware support for HEVC videos, software support is provided, but the playback experience might vary based on the video resolution and PC performance. These extensions also let you encode HEVC content on devices that donāt have a hardware-based video encoder.
Finally - My conputer really struggles with MS Store for some reason. The unencrypted 3.0 stations play fine on my computer now using HDHR program - thanks.
How long does it take to tune? It started to tune remotely for me on the previous beta1 with a ~15 second tune time. Still long 15sec tune on new 316 beta
Most of the time, with my limited testing, it took about 4-5 seconds. Every once in a while there was an outlier that was 11-15 seconds. This was on an Android phone (Pixel 7 Pro) and a onn 4K Streaming box. Are you using your ISP's DNS servers? How long does it take to tune the ATSC1 stations?
Yes ispās dns. My atsc1 channels tune remotely in 3-4sec on both original and transcoded quality. My home upload speed is 1gb fiber. It takes about 10sec to load the problem atsc3 channels on home lan. Iām glad itās fixed for you but it definitely needs more work in tune times.
At least now with the changes to channels timeout length and the hdhr beta they can be tuned remotely unlike before when they would fail and load the atsc1 channel.
