Do they have any info on how DRM will be supported, and when?

Here is an update From Silicondust.

Remaining items

There are three mission-critical items to release before RC - protected channel support (DRM), HDHomeRun VIEW for OSX, and live TV pause/rewind support.

Protected channel support has been quite a frustration. We have live TV working in our Windows Universal app for Windows 10 however we can't release it because Microsoft does not allow a Windows Universal app to request/verify HDCP operation (required to meet the protection requirements). We are investigating a workaround which we think has a reasonable chance of working but is consuming time and resources.

Protected channel support on Android is nearing release. We will be releasing live TV support first, with recording support to follow next month.

Looks like they are going after it. Should be interesting.

I really like what they are doing with it. Attached is a view of the recordings screen.

Not only is the NVIDIA Shield a great DVR for HDHomerun users but it will also soon be able to run PLEX Server and also be able to transcode up to 2 streams. Also it is a great Sage miniclient

How is that limited it runs Netflix ..youtube ... Plex ... kodi you can Watch DRM channels (HDHR Prime) .. I use it as a Game Console emulator also ... Nintendo Sega etc.. I also use it as a DVR. Webbrowser. SageTV miniClient. I can watch Comcast TV2GO ... which means I can watch previously shown broadcast series without having to record. (Premium Movies at my Convenience). I can cast whatever is on my tablet to it. I also use it as a file manger to move files from Sage Server to my Nas from my sofa.

It does 4K. has 1 gig Ethernet and ac wireless. Bluetooth
Now you tell me how that is limited? or what is missing? I am sure there are many uses I forgot.

I've been using it to stream games from my PC lately. Back when the nVidia streaming service was free my son played that quite a bit.

I am kind of curious, though- what analog sources do you still have? I don't even bother setting up non-HD channels at this point- everything work watching has an HD channel.


While I understand SHS's concern over 2 streams, that's going to be enough for almost anyone that as a Plex server for their own personal (and immediate family) use. It will be interesting to see how it performs. It's going to be the cheapest low-power, quiet Plex server capable of handling 2 transcoding streams.

I like my Shield TV, although I find it a little quirky. I've had big problems with audio drift in Netflix, and I generally find navigation in the Sage miniclient painfully slow (it's a little better using the Shield remote, but that's too limited for me).

HDMI or Component is all you get with Satellite and in some case with Cable as the HDHomerun dosen't with all cable system.

Nope it is tied in to their guide data and servers.

Guide Data Favorites and Viewing history are kept on their servers. Makes it easy to move the DVR around but it forces you to use their guide data.

Ah, I see, I have a Shield and a Prime, was looking to play with yet another DVR system. :-) Thanks for the reply.

They will be making changes to the Android DVR .... will be released sometime Tuesday. You will be able to use eternal storage for recordings.

I like the sounds of that. Probably not made by Seagate.

[reggie14]

There's still no DRM support, though, right?

And it sounds like the software makes a big distinction between live TV and recorded TV. For instance, is it true that you can't pause live TV? Can you even watch shows currently being recorded? (and if so, what kinds of restrictions are there?)
