Tablo 4th Gen is a simple over the air DVR that shines for easy local recording, a friendly interface, and two tuner recording for two shows at once. It works well with Roku and Google TV, can fast forward through recordings, and the app also pulls in free streaming channels. The main knocks are slow menus and channel changes, occasional app or network glitches, and heat related reliability concerns. Storage is tight at 128GB, so an external drive is often needed, and ATSC 3.0 uncertainty hangs over its long term future.

4-tuner unit will 99% die in about 12 months. Install it upside down to let heat radiate out and it will work. I would install the 2-tuner unit upside down just in case.
100% free and zero fees. 14 day guide.
Any channel, including streaming, found here can be recorded:

Works offline. Above streaming channels will still work if you don't have an antenna.
Note: Tablo sells on walmart which you can get with an extended warranty.
How many units do you have working, and how many crashed and burned.
Since you turned them upside down, any don't work anymore?
I'm in florida to it gets hot as hell... well almost as hot as hell.
putting a small fan on unit might help.

Yeah, I'm on my 3rd also...they rarely last more than 1-2 years. I'm tempted to buy a cheap 2 tuner today as a backup for when my current refurbished 4 tuner dies on me. I've had my TIVO Roamio for 11 years and it's still going strong. Too bad Tablo didn't build these better to last.
QUESTION:
Will my quality of the picture be the same as my cable I get now.
What I mean is three out of the 4 local PBS stations look like they broadcast in 240p and only only looks like 1080p.
Any help woul be great.
I would like to record some of the Cooking Shows on PBS
Thanks

What you describe sounds typical of the way the channels broadcast. There is a primary stream that is high def and several sub-channels that are lower quality.

Did that ever get settled

"If you rely on the built-in 128GB then they get transcoded and you lose quality. "
Looks like I need to know more about "transcoded", process, and options
Thanks
