I am comparing Channels DVR for OTA live TV to Emby. I have already removed Plex from the equation, since I had buffering issues that they seem to not be able to fix.

 

Emby does to buffer but it takes 10-20 seconds to load. Channels DVR is 1-2 seconds. Is there something I can adjust to fix that? If I can get Emby to around what Channels DVR is. I would do everything in Emby. I will say Channels DVR is what great piece of software.

 

Running this on a Synology 718+ NAS with 6 GB of RAM. The client is an Apple TV 4K.

 

Thx

The new version is much faster. The channels load much faster, almost as fast as the Channels DVR app.

 

The integration of a streaming service would be nice to have. The one thing that is still a show stopper for me, is the guide portion. In the Channels DVR app, it looks like a cable or satellite guide, and you just cluck on the channel and it loads. In Emby, you have the intermediate screen and have to hit on play too. Seems like a waste of time.

 

Thanks

The guide like in the iPhone app I like better. Still has the extra screen.
