4th Generation and legacy network-connected Tablo DVRs allow streaming to compatible devices anywhere in your home. However, there is no method to copy/save/export recorded Tablo video onto a device for later offline viewing.
Furthermore, Tablo recordings on external hard drives are not saved in a standard file format and therefore are not playable on other devices.
I really don't want to stream live sports since with Tivo I can record them and start watching an hour later, skip commercials and finish around the same end time. Table does this too?

That could be considered a highly unusual opinion. Most users of prior "legacy" Tablo models who have tried this version, prefer the older versions, as they're more reliable and dependable overall. They tend to work when you need them to work and not when they decide to work (as with the 4th gen models).
Would greatly appreciate it if you can tell me which ones allow you to do that.
Thank you
I can record channels like Outside Ch., AMC Thrillers, ION Mystery, Laff More, Grit, Fawesome and lots more.
You can greatly improve the "legacy" guide by subscribing to the $5/month, 14-day version (which includes various other enhancements).
The main problem is that it's quirky, unpredictable, and very highly reliant upon very robust internet and antenna signal. It's as if it were designed in an environment where everything was better than perfect. Outside of that type of environment, it misbehaves.
Plex
Both can be installed on your home computer, or and old one (repurpose) as long as they have 4gb Ram and ample storage.
Hey I'm a lifetime plex account holder. Can you point me in the right direction. I have a cable box how do I get it to record with plex? I used to use wmc but that's gone.
This thread is unrelated to anything other than the 4th gen Tablo (OTA, not cable) DVR and perhaps other OTA options. You might want to check Reddit and post your questions on the appropriate forum there.
Yes. it must access the "mothership" for overnight guide updates. It's not critical, unless it misses multiple "handshakes"....but wait! Not only that, but thanks to it's genius design, it turns into a brick if your internet goes down. It's completely reliant on the internet for everything!....which can be a potentially major problem!

I'm glad to know that!
I have an HDhomerun and it also does not allow FF or Rew of live TV on the LG app. Seems like an LG issue.
The newer spec is 3.0.
ASTC 1.0 is only guaranteed to June 2027.
IIRC, the Tablo requires internet to stream TV through, too. So if you want to consume this on an Apple TV, it's proxying through your internet, consuming bandwidth, but also then problematic if your internet is down because of storms and you're trying to watch the weather. The HDHomeRun doesn't have this limitation but was more expensive.
Edit- confirmed

It's stick to your email account. Though if were to add new devices these days, you would have to contact them to manually add those devices
I would give Tablo 5 stars if it didn't have those glitches with Roku. I loved the way it worked on all levels, when it worked. Also, if you buy it through Tablo you will have to pay shipping if you need to return it.
