HDHomeRun Premium TV

[nyplayer 90]

Silicondust has released Premium TV for HDHomerun users and they state it can be incorporated into 3rd party apps like emby and plex.

 

When will Plex, Emby, Kodi, the Channels app on iOS, and other third parties be able to access Premium TV channels?
These channels are available to third party services right now, the same way regular over the air channels are. Accessing and making them visible to the user on these platforms does take some code tweaking though, particularly for those services that provide their own DVR, so we cannot say exactly when third party services will integrate these channels. With that said, we are happy to work with any third party developers to get integrated as quickly as possible.

Yup we have already been discussing this with them and we are already testing the feature ourselves.

 

We plan to support it. Thanks

Now that is exciting!

I know this is a brand new service. Has anyone figured out how the Emby EPG will get data for these channels?

[jasonmcroy 316]

That would be awesome Luke!

 

I am just waiting for them to release the ability to sign up (supposed to be today sometime) and I am all in. I am going to use two extra Extend units I have laying around for the premium channels and keep my Duo and Quatro for OTA as I have it now.

 

It is perfect for me because the few premium channels I actually watch content from are all available so it is going to be perfect. 

 

It will be great to keep all this within just Emby's interface.

I'm brainstorming a way for EPG123 to have "custom" lineups based on the users subscribed lineups that will be able to create an XMLTV file for emby if needed. The channels can be numbered just like the channels in the tuners so that the auto-mapping can work.

 

This caught me by surprise, so I'm behind already. Conceptually, I have been working on the custom lineups for a long time (I wanted it for my SlingTV subscription).

This would be a huge addition to the already great epg123. Looking forward to seeing that day! Thanks Gary.

Just posted over at thegreenbutton.tv epg123 sub forum. Seems maybe Schedules Direct could add this lineup? I see it grabs a tuner off my HDHR Connect Quatro if that means anything at all.

Plex is already working both playing and recording … hope schedules direct can add the lineup.

I could not find the channels in Plex yesterday. I'll look again.

I did exactly that on my own volition and intuition but upon channel scan, Plex DVR did not find these channels even though they are there on the Quatro's WebGUI and viewable in the HDHomeRun app on my ShieldTV.

I did not do a channel san in Plex there is no need to. I just Delete the DVR ... set it up from scratch chose Cable .. USA put in zipcode … chose a Cable lineup in my area. Make sure you are not selecting Antenna... The key is selecting Cable.

None of the channels listed on the left side are the Premium Channels shown in the WebGUI for my tuner.

I do not know what your problem is maybe you should post in the Plex Forum.

Yup. Next step. Thanks for the link.

 

Still it would be very nice if Emby incorporates ComSkip along with these new channels. I still need to compare them with what I have with YoutubeTV and Philo but options are good!

 

Probably SiliconDust will add more in the future at different tiers.

Do your Comcast channel numbers match the SD line-up?

Yes only had to map the OTA. I have a recording going now.

Guys before you go too crazy deleting tuners and remapping channels note the issue here on the SD discussion forum that some of the feeds seem to be east and west cost. So until, for instance Schedules Direct has a proper lineup in place for this service air times are going to be off for some channels:

In my case I do not have that problem so it is a case by case bases.

[SHSPVR 123]

Got love SageTV this is one thing that dose better then everybody else with out deleting any tuners as it can remapping channels along side with mulit EPG on the fly because of it advanced features.
