G+_Jeff Moore Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 I would love an episode that goes over how to get OTA on some sort of device (Roku, Chromecast, HTPC) without having to switch inputs & gives you the closest user experience to what you might get with a cable box or tivo. The stuff i have seen for Roku, like the Plex or Tablo apps, are all just the generic Roku interface. I have seen a product called HDHRfling that works with a Homerun Prime that promises to give what i am looking for but it seems a daunting to get to work. Any thoughts/suggestions would be great.

G+_Jerry McMurphy Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 Logitech Harmony remote control! Great for handling multiple devices! Requires some time and ability to program the remote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Jason Perry Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 I don't think it is out there. There is a product that takes OTA and streams it over IP but I don't know of any integration for Roku or any sort of device. I would love to see it for plex personally.

G+_Jason Perry Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 PS there is an episode about what I mentioned. If anyone finds out how to display a video stream on a Roku, Chromecast, or on plex let me know I have all kinds of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Ben Reese Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 I've got a TV tuner card in my PC and there are a few programs/services that will stream from that over IP. Unfortunately, I'm running Windows Server 2012r2 and Win Server has limited support for TV cards. I want to say there's a plug in for PLEX, but haven't checked. I know there are add-ons for XBMC (KODI?) and I've had a little success streaming TV to my Raspberry Pi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Jason Perry Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 This is going to bother me till I find it. One of the main topics in the episode was OTA TV and they showed off an external tuner card that converted the channel to a IP stream on your network instead of sending it to a specific computer. I am not sure how long ago it was on but I am pretty sure Fr. Robert Ballecer, SJ was on it. And I know there was a second host. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Jerry McMurphy Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 OTA antenna to TiVo Roameo. I was just reading about them today. I get great network television OTA but would like the TiVo option. I'm gonna read up more about them (never owned TiVo before). By the way, I'm cord cutter, using Apple TV for new releases, Netflix for streaming older shows and some original programming, Hulu for catching up on shows, and antenna for network and local broadcasts.

G+_Jeff Moore Posted October 21, 2014 Author Share Posted October 21, 2014 I found the video below that shows a setup that looks pretty seemless using a harmony remote & windows media center. The guy outlines what he uses in the notes. I didnt realize that you can add XBMC to it as well as Netflix & Amazon. I am thinking i might go this direction. Thanks guys! Though i would like a demo of HDHRfling :) http://youtu.be/Yk_WM4a58MA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
