Question about remote viewing of Premium TV.
If I DVR a Premium TV Channel and then watch it remotely: I am using my upload bandwidth and transcode settings.
If I watch a Premium TV Channel Live am I using my local bandwidth twice? Once to bring it down to the DVR and then transcode the feed and send it up to my device? Or is it just going direct to my remote device?
If I am using the Web Player I guess I would have to do it twice, once for down and once for up?
Remote viewing would 2x bandwidth. It has to be downloaded over the internet to the DVR, then uploaded from the DVR to your remote device.
This would be for ALL clients, web player, devices (Mobile Phone, AppleTV, etc..)?
Yes any client that's not on your home network.
If you record it or watch it on your local network you're using download bandwidth.
If you watch it remotely, whether recorded or live, you're using upload bandwidth.
If you watch Live remotely you're using download and upload bandwidth simultaneously. Whereas with recorded content you're using the same bandwidth, just not (necessarily/nearly) simultaneously.
