HD Home run network tuner quad

[unisoft 352]

Does anyone know if using Freeview in UK, which is dvb-t and dvb-t2, recordings are exactly as transmitted or are they transcoded from device to storage?

 

If I use an internal tuner like TBS or hauppauge, it records an exact copy of the broadcast (no DRM on actual transport stream in UK).

 

Obviously I would be on gigabit LAN when recording not a mobile or internet connection.

 

In UK, dvb-t is mpeg2 SD and dvb-t2 is h264 (mpeg4) HD.

 

Thanks

Yes - they are saved as native streams - with HDHR or Hauppauge tuners

 

why do you think they would be transcoded - is this via emby or standalone

Via emby using Synology server app and LG TV app.

 

I was getting impression from reading stuff it was a transcoded/re-encoded stream.

 

If it's as broadcast, I'm happy with that

 

Thanks

Yes saves the stream when you record via emby
