Hardware decoding now working on TiVo Stream 4K

Looks like the Stream 4K update just fixed decoding. Hardware option works now

For those looking for the update, it may not immediately come up. They say they released it Sept 5, including the HW decoder fixes and re-instating the developer menu. I had to manually check for an update, then wait 5 minutes with the TS4K idle before it started installing the update.

The build number is 4896 for the new firmware; the old build that broke HW decoding was 4800.

yup. after update, ota playing fine still
(my unit never got the bad update that broke things though)

While this may have fixed the hardware decoder for H.262/MPEG-2, the screen flashing still persists with some H.264/AVC content.
