There's no mention of CableCard so I wonder if removing commercials is limited to DRM-free broadcasts only

- atonse 9y agoYes they talk about HDHomeRun, so that's only for clear broadcasts (antenna)
- TetOn 9y agoHDHomeRun's Prime model includes a cablecard slot. https://www.silicondust.com/product/hdhomerun-prime/ https://www.silicondust.com/product/hdhomerun-prime/
- Godel_unicode 9y agoCableCARD is not equivalent to DRM; CableCARD is supported, DRM enabled channels are not. https://support.plex.tv/hc/en-us/articles/226463767-Frequently-Asked-Questions-DVR-Live-TV?mobile_site=true#DRM https://support.plex.tv/hc/en-us/articles/226463767-Frequent...
- dperfect 9y agoMy experience with an HDHomeRun Prime (and CableCard) is that none of Plex's DVR features (not even live TV) work with DRM programs. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but DRM content only appears to be accessible using something like Windows Media Center (specifically, PlayReady). It's not a big deal for me since most of the DRM content channels (that I'm interested in) also offer online streaming options, but it is annoying.
- hbcondo714 9y agoTime Warner / Spectrum encrypts more than 90% of the channels delivered to me so I guess Windows 8 w/ Media Center is the only HTPC option for me still after all these years
