HDHomeRun Premium Streaming channels

[ccihon]

SiliconDust has added a streaming package that allows users of their ATSC/QAM tuners (not the Prime CableCard units) to add a group of streamed network channels to their locally tuned lineup of around US $35 per month, and given a comparison of other stream-only services like Sling or YouTubeTV, looks like a good value. Adding this subscription adds these channels to the Connect tuner as additional channels in the 1000+ range above any locally tuned channels, at least when the latest firmware is on the device and the HDHR app is used. Their site mentions upcoming availability of these channels via Plex DVR, and I saw mention that some SageTV users are already tuning these directly in Sage but via "OpenDCT" rather than the native tuner instance. Any idea if this method or some other would allow these streamed HDHR channels to be visible via NPVR? I re-scanned the Connect Dual tuner I have and while the channels are working fully in the HDHR apps, they remain invisible to NPVR, where I see only the ATSC channels I always had, via antenna.

From what I've read, if you subscribe, the channels then show up in NextPVR. The trial version of the service doesn't list the channels in NextPVR.

hmm - I hoped that was the case, as I have subscibed, but did not see the channels - will try scanning for them again

On the Settings->Device screen I think you also need to use the HDHR device type, not ATSC/QAM.

I see that set of entries as shown in the other post on this subject, and I have the entries, though a scan of those yields no channels. The devices are listed "no" under "Present" column? Is that normal for a device yet to be set up? My other devices all work fine. How might I remove and add these back?

One last possible issue: I am running v 4.0.4 on the server rather than latest version....
