I was doing that too, until my dual-tuner ATSC capture box from Silicon Dust died. Fine, I thought, I'll just buy another. Nope! Not available for sale anywhere, and I haven't found a comparable product from another vendor (network-attached ATSC receiver).
I may break down and try out TabloTV, but that requires you to use their own apps. Sigh

- ansible 10y agoWell, I'll be darned. That wasn't in stock anywhere the last few times I looked. That's the model I had which previously failed. I guess I'll give it another try.
- flyinghamster 10y agoOne common problem with the SiliconDust boxes (though it hasn't happened to me, knock on wood) is wall-wart failure. No doubt another example of Capacitor Plague. (rant) I can't help but wonder how many tons of perfectly good electronics get landfilled because of crap caps. (/rant) If you still have the old box, try the new power supply with it, provided it's the same voltage and provides sufficient current.[1] Merely checking the supply with a voltmeter isn't sufficient.
