ATSC 3.0 (NextGen TV) in the US - TVHeadend not seeing new channelsAdded by G C about 3 years ago
Hello,
I just had to update my HDHomerun to a version that supports ATSC 3.0 as some of my local stations made the switch in the last few weeks. I purchased the HDHomerun Flex 4k - https://www.silicondust.com/product/hdhomerun-flex-4k/
The channel scan on the HDHomerun device web interface shows all of the channels (ATSC2 and ATSC3) but TVHeadend is only showing the ATSC2 channels. It looks like the MUX definitions need to be modified for the ATSC3 channels but I have no clue what to us. Has anyone been successful in this?
The output from the HDHomerun is still an MPEG stream so i'm able to point to the channel using the IPTV config options in TVheadend so it doesn't seem like a major compatibility problem just an issue around channel scanning.
Any thoughts? many channels in the US are scheduled to switch in the next 6 months so I suspect this will be a larger problem soon.
