Wilky13 21 Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 (edited) Nice! Looks like only requires 1 cablecard so should be an easy switch from current Prime. Questions, though: 1). What will the price be? 2). Why only a 100 Mbs Ethernet? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Edited September 28, 2018 by Wilky13 Link to post Share on other sites

Not sure on the ethernet connection though. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk My guess is it's because the average HD broadcast stream is 15-20Mbps so a gb nic is unnecessary and would cut into their bottom line.

Thus maxing out the 100 Mbs NIC. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Edited September 28, 2018 by Wilky13 Link to post Share on other sites

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Theoretically yes, but I'd imagine they have people there smarter than you or I that know something we don't. They're not going to sell a product that can't handle what it was designed to do. My 2c. Link to post Share on other sites

tweexter 3 Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 I really hope they release the 6-tuner version in the near future, but I've been keeping an eye on this thread and it doesn't look encouraging. https://forum.silicondust.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=131&t=69565&sid=dead7966f518d985c0eee39e651eb75c&start=270 I just nabbed a brand new 3-tuner prime on ebay and it works great with Emby. It'll do the trick for now, at least. Link to post Share on other sites
