And I could watch those TVs. Or, hear me out, let me watch my Tablo remotely from my phone or computer, without using a VPN or anything extra like that.
I’ve already upgraded my antenna, my antenna amplifier, and just bought a 1TB SSD for the DVR. It’s becoming less and less of a value for me.
Maybe but it really depends on how long you intend to stick with OTA-with the antenna you brought. My Relatives are paying over $85 a month for YT TV. I have had Tablo for ~27 months now. Yes there are things we all want improved on the Tablo but the value I personally don’t think you can dispute. I’m hoping for the remote scheduling to become a reality but time will tell.
Peace
Thanks for the response. As long as there’s OTA tv, I want to use an antenna to watch tv at home.
I’m asking for extra stuff which I don’t really need.
Tablo has it on their future ‘wishlist,’ and I think the Legacy model allowed remote viewing (I’m sure someone will correct me if I am wrong).
Tablo has said that remote programming is a higher priority. Also, remote viewing in the file format that Tablo uses would require a fair amount of bandwidth.
I think they’ve mentioned remote access (both viewing and management) to be on their list.
Also, with remote viewing, there are problems like double-NAT and older Internet services that offer 300mbps down and 20mbps up. That upload speed could cause a bottleneck. However, this shouldn’t be a problem nowadays with fiber that is at least 500d/500u or better.
The VPN method really is quite slick. Just ask ChatGPT or Gemini for the steps using Tablo with your routers make and model.
Forget the “wish list”, just get the existing “features” all fixed (offline mode, playback errors, etc, etc).
