neptunepic 11 Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 Hi all, is it possible to use openDCT for tuning with HDHR Prime rather than use Emby's native tuning method? During my testing with openDCT I'm finding that it produces cleaner recordings, with less artifacting and dropouts. For example using SageTV with openDCT my recordings don't stutter or break up, ever. Not the case with Emby. Is this possible? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neptunepic 11 Posted November 8, 2018 Author Share Posted November 8, 2018 Well I'm certainly not an expert but it's an open source digital cable network tuner. It can discover any tuners on your local network and control them for tuning and recording.

Luke 37295 Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 We don't have direct support for opendct, so that means it would need to have an m3u output feature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neptunepic 11 Posted November 8, 2018 Author Share Posted November 8, 2018 Yeah I'm not sure if it does but for now I'm using SageTV to record via OpenDCT and then move files into Emby for viewing. For whatever reason the SageTV+OpenDCT combo is more stable and has fewer glitches than Emby's native recording. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
