USTV support

Thanks, sorry it is still a bit unclear, are you using the SPVR4-01-NA with my Tablo Extra to feed NextPVR or is it separate? I figure with a quad you don't really need 4 more channels.

It is separate, just playing and learning NPVR on the side right now.

The tablo works ok and does what I need it to do I guess, but finding the features of NPVR are surpassing it the more digging I do.
The fact you can add channels from virtually any input (reading the forum and learning how NPVR utilizes them)
just makes it a winner and would rather give Sub $200 before upgrading my tablo.

Now add the fact that you did an amazing job on the roku app just makes it a no brainer.

Thanks I was just curious if the extra worked on your older device, maybe someday when you aren't using all four tuners give it a try.

Hey, if I can help I am more than happy to.

Guide me through the set up and Ill give it a try  

I thought I might describe my setup so everyone reading this post can understand why I am excited about NPVR.
I am running 9 roku's on my local network. I have a Tablo supplying my local channels, another computer running Mezzmo
serving my movies. I'm running 3 raspberry pi's and passing them through ATSC modulators into Tablo to get a the channels from the for mentioned
websites that I cant get on Philo. With all this going on its straining my network so you can see why NPVR's capabilities are so appealing.

Follow up here https://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php?tid=63291 Just run TabloTV install steps and it might work. It's not clear how you tune your RPi's or stop them from streaming but I kind of understand what your are doing. Most of us that need STB's use HDMI capture and avoid the need for the ATSC modulator/tuner.

I load the website run it in full screen and just let it stream all the time........wasted bandwidth

Good afternoon Martin,

I tried installing the Tablo extra and got this.......

NOTE: running win 10 32bit

[mvallevand]

Although I don't plan on testing 32 bit it was compiled for any CPU. Did you make sure the file is unblocked and did you try running from the command line not from explorer?

[buntay20]

same error at command prompt

[mvallevand]

It needs to be in the NextPVR program folder not in a sub folder.
