i have two tablo. one at each house. i watch them on android/google tv, and i watch from amazon fire stick. each client crashes A LOT. it’s constantly reconnect. restarting while watching recorded content, restarting while watching live tv. it’s unusable. i often see recordings where there’s 5 minutes, of the recording then another 10 minutes and then the rest, all listed as separate recordings.
i’ve used ota dvr for quite some time. amazon replay, and channelmaster’s dvr+. this is by far the worst of any with respect to stability and usability of the viewing.
Regarding your splits, it sounds like you’re experiencing some signal issues. Try changing the Tablo’s internal amp setting as well as any other amp you may have attached to your antenna.
As to your Android/GoogleTV/Firestick issue, you have not provided any details as to which types of devices you are using. There are thousands of users on android-compatible devices that do not have this issue. Perhaps there could be some internet connectivity issue as well. (Again, you have provided zero information as to how your Tablo or viewing devices are connected to the internet.)
If you’d like help with your issues, it would be great if you were able to provide as much information as possible. What’s similar about your two houses? What’s different? Have you done any comparitive testing? Have you discovered instances where this works versus doesn’t?
If you’re just here to complain, that’s fine, too. Just know it’s hard to take as a serious complaint without much context.
appreciate the reply. i was having signal issues and recently installed a new antenna which seems to be stellar. i’ll keep watching for these splits. i had though that the recording app was crashing perhaps.
as far as connectivity. internet connectivity shouldn’t ever be required at all to view OTA live or to view any recorded content. however, my tablo is hard wired with cat 6 to a gigabit switch for local traffic. switch is hard wired to the deco tp-link mesh router. for viewing, i’m using ONN android hdmi dongle with tablo app installed from app store. as i mentioned, i’m also using amazon fire stick with tablo app installed to view at home #2.
