Rated 5 out of 5

Works well, good tuner, good viceo compression, silent

HDHomeRun Extend is a network HD TV tuner for over the air and cable broadcasts. In the US, get the ATSC version. It includes H.265 compression, both in high resolution and lower resolution for use on mobile devices. Fanless, it's quiet. The tuner works very well and the compressed files are smaller than H.264. Overall works very well. Recommended product.

Great Purchase

I use this network tuner with Plex DVR to record Over The Air (OTA) TV. Because of the hardware encoder to MP4, I don't have to recode the video to use it with my TV and Android devices. This means that Plex does not have to transcode the video for me to play it nor do I have to recode it after it is recorded. The device works great and I would recommend it.

Works like promised

I had purchased the HDHomeRun EXTEND along with an Amazon Fire TV and an antenna. The setup was incredibly easy for all of these, and the HDHomeRun app make is so much simpler to go between Netflix and OTA channels. The guide tells you what is playing on each of the channels and what is coming up, to make surfing easier.
