If you haven’t already done this, try restarting your router, then Tablo, then your streaming device (or TV) where the app is installed, in this order.
Roll back 2.2.58
I upgraded an unused gen 2 to 2.2.58. I have a station the is full power HI-VHF all green dots and it also has a low powered UHF translator that has orange dots.
Before the upgrade I did a channel scan and the all green dot channel was listed. After the upgrade the orange dot channel is listed. This is the same behavior as the gen 4.
I went to my gen 1 and gen 3 and rescanned and the all green dot channel appeared.
I also purposely didn’t register my device as a gen 4 device but it seems that it now continuously phones home and shows up on the my-status page. I also can’t turn off “Viewing Data”. This is ridiculous.
Firmware release 2.2.58 was suppose to maintain legacy functionality but allow gen 4 app access to legacy devices.
It appears that the extend live functionality has been changed.
Proper legacy extend live functionality is the extend time is 50% of the record time up a maximum of 2 hours. Last night I recorded the 3 hour MLB Dodgers game on a gen 3 without the new firmware and a gen 2 with the new firmware.
The old firmware had the extend time at 1 1/2 hours and the new firmware at 30 minutes.
How long is it going to take to fix this
after upgrading my Legacy Tablo to firmware version 2.2.58, will I still be able to access it from a web browser?
Yes, still works.
Thank you. With this information I went for it and can now also confirm it!
sure wish it was for Legacy HDMI too.
