Zapperbox

Not sure if this is good news or not, but apparently the zapperbox can DVR ATSC3.0 channels.

But Can it DVR DRM ATSC 3.0 Channels can DVR ASTC 3.0 but not the DRM ones.

That’s the thing. The article reads as it CAN record the DRM’d channels.

I see no mention of DRM. I emailed them and asked about DRM.

Read the Release Notes (under Coming Soon) and FAQ's (#9)

I did, and they specifically mention that they presently do not support DRM content. (Neither recorded nor live DRM content is supported currently.)

I know many readers here also watch the SD forums, so this may not be news: the ZapperBox has the same level of ATSC3 support as HDHR: neither can access DRM content.

Got a reply at least they answered quickly.

March 29th in Minneapolis and still can only record ABC, Fox, and CW, in ATSC 3.0, but CBS and NBC are still locked. . It's these windy days that I really want the ATSC 3.0
