DVR (non-DIY discussion)
This is crazy. Tivo coming out with their own DVR: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B013X8YI5I/?tag=aftvn-20
Silicondust is coming out with there DVR software to go with their hardware. https://www.silicondust.com/products...d-homerun-dvr/ Tablo also does it and been out awhile: https://www.tablotv.com/ I'm surprised google didn't come out with a DVR (not counting google fiber). Of course they open sourced sagetv which is cool. The non-DYI is not my thing. I'm currently doing KODI and sagetv for my recordings. Any others I'm missing? What's your thoughts?

Well, I spent the $60.00 to follow along on the Silicondust DVR Kickstarter. So far it's been pretty disapointing.
Their progress, or lack thereof, shows just how difficult software development can be. They are down to only getting out one release every 30 days. Right now they have a very basic recording engine working. However, what any SageTV user would consider to be basic recording control is missing. There is no epg grid so you must browse a somewhat random list of shows, make a selection and then it will record every episode. There is some control over SD vs HD but no direct control. As far as I know, there is no way to record a single specific show such as one Thursday night football game. Also, there are no DVR functions with live tv. You can't pause rewind or record the currently playing show. The current Kodi client uses the HDHomeRun view app for live TV. It actually works well. It is very snappy at changing channels etc. However, I wonder if it will work as well once all live TV is routed through the DVR. |

to say none of these offer anything over cable dvr is off base a bit
I must admit tivo has come along way and their new box is nice not an amount of money I'll spend but for someone that only has encrypted cable it's a nice option and what allot of people have wanted out of sage or wmc 1.automatic commercial skipping (nice and surprising) 2. Netflix on same box including 4k 3. plex available and works well for movies 4.tivo stream is a nice small extender that still has Netflix and plex access. and with the upcoming fire tv app even more. again WAY more than your standard cable box and all in all not a bad package |

My understanding after reading the review is that this is done by someone manually tagging the commercial start and endpoints. So it doesn't work in real-time and only works on certain programs, mainly primetime programs on the most popular channels.

![]() What I meant regarding Tivo, that they were going to be able to stream and have a firetv app. But I haven't check out tivo for about a decade. But them coming out with capable of 4K output is nice. Their box looks like an apple product. Did you hear what Amazon said today? Banning competing products that don't have an prime video support! Crazy! http://www.aftvnews.com/amazon-to-st...video-support/

They have a group of paid people who watch the shows and manually mark the commercials.

Like in the past, I don't see why they are doing this when litigation shut down ReplayTV and the "Hoppa".

I believe the hopper is still in tact and has survived litigation.

Ahh, I thought they had to change it to chapter skip, or whatever, non "Commercial Skip"
