Finally some good info for setting up DVRs and streaming TV. So many of these videos just blah blah blah about the apps and extra features but never show you anything about how to actually set up the hardware devices or even what to get or buy.

Been on Roku for years but since I'm mac everywhere else it made sense to get Apple TV. It's good. The apps are more dynamic and the integration with Apple products. Roku still has me on UI and usability

Will Tablo work with TV's in my other rooms or only for the main TV?
@handyguybrian16046 жыл бұрын
That's the cool thing about it. It sits on your home network and works with any TV that has a Roku or other compatible Tablo device!

A pretty thorough overview. One could argue that the Chromecast is also a front-end. Keep up the good work guys.

Can you watch TV that was recorded with a tablo through a web interface (inside the house without buying a subscription)?

Will Tablo let me record from other apps such as EXfinity or only whats available on Tablo?
@handyguybrian16046 жыл бұрын
Only what is available through the devices tuner.

If I had Sling TV, would I be able to record programs from Sling tv, or is it only OTA programs that can be recorded? Obviously I wouldn't need to record from Netflix or Amazon prime, but sling tv is live tv that is streamed over the internet. My hope is that I would be able to record some of that programing with the Tablo as well as OTA channels.
@Oldman_Taylor8 жыл бұрын
Nope. Its a licensing issue right now, so you can not record any content from Sling, its live only. You can not even pause, or back up.
@TheHandyguys8 жыл бұрын
Sorry for the delayed response. This will record Over The Air (OTA) only.

OK, I was afraid of that. I'll still be getting a Tablo, but I will have to see if there is a dvr that will work for live streaming. Thanks for responding.

Now that theres newer devices out there, can Sling TV be recorded from the new Roku Ultra into Tablo, Simple TV or Channel Master DVRs?

Hello, how to you get them to connect to the tablo?
@DK-hv1hf8 жыл бұрын
One advantage Roku has over the Fire is that if the Internet goes out, you can still view your recorded content on Tablo and live TV. The Fire needs Internet access in order to bring even local content to your TV. I found that out by accident. There's something that can be side loaded onto the Fire that allows you to by-pass that on local, but who wants to bother with that?

Not every Roku has the headphones port. Kinda irresponsible not to mention that if you're in the business of informing people about their options. *Edit: Removed "4" after "Roku"

The Handyguys There's a slight chance you may be missing the point. Again, if you're not willing to inform yourselves fully before you open your mouth, maybe you shouldn't be on KZbin. #my2c

I realize not all ROKU devices have earphone ports. Nor does everyone want one. But that is certainly something you should check when looking at their various products. But IIRC correctly, the video was really more about how each device differs in its interface with Tablo. Each TV interface will have various pros/cons associated with it. BTW, thanks for watching and comenting
