Actually there are a variety of options! Depending each with their purposes and to suit different needs. 3rd party app are not one-size-fits-all. From what I understand…
As mentioned Tablo Ripper, a Windows only program. I’m not familiar with it, I hear it’s very user friendly (being a Windows program) For a list of features look here - https://github.com/cyclej/TabloRipper/wiki#features
If you’re looking at mobile devices, you may consider ota2go. Here’s a guest tabloTV blog post about it - Download Tablo Recordings to your Android Device with ota2GO …more than I could say.
Don’t use Windows, for Linux and Mac look to capto, compliment it with wrapto. Allows for custom naming works great for scripting and automating scheduling exports. Lets me have enough control, while letting it take care of things without interaction. You can have great custom control, use it for scripting and scheduling.
SurLaTablo. I’ve not used it, but if you have an issue - you can reach out and the developer will surla get back to you. I believe it has some commercial skip/removal process. Options to store at various size/resolutions Python script - not platform dependent - works on Windows, Linux, Mac… whatever runs python scripts.
Still in beta (at least under development) is APL Tablo Client. This is very feature rich, not quit as much with export. Yes, you can, but he hasn’t gotten to allow custom naming and it’s a GUI, so there’s no automation. But there is a lot of great features missing in tablo’s UI, lots of sorting, filters, auto record (not yet released) schedule of recordings, etc. It’s java, …you know, platform independent.
So, without knowing more than “copy file to other media”, I can’t say this one is exactly what you need.
