I’m pretty lucky in that all of my channels are 5 green dots. Actually, the splitter on the the roof antenna was an afterthought. It used to go right to the TV but then I decided to poke it through the wall and was able to easily get it to the Tablo. I remembered I had the splitters for cable and decided to try it out and it works great. When I was having wifi issues with the old provider/router I found it helpful to be able to watch live TV outside of Tablo. Countless times I found myself reaching to pause or rewind. Glad I don’t have to do that anymore but it’s still there just in case.
I have had the Tablo stop 5 minutes after a show ends on Live TV. I wonder if it happens because the Tablo wants to use the tuner to record a program. I don’t watch enough live TV to see the pattern.
Were you recording what you were watching? If so, that is it.

I’ve observed this exact behavior… watching “live” a show that’s also being recorded will stop when the show ends and return to guide. Not a huge deal, but would be a nice enhancement to have it continue playing live TV when the recording stops.

From my understanding, the normal expected behaviour of the Tablo is if a show is recording and you start watching it live then it will end 5 minutes after the show is done (aka when the recording stops). If you are watching a live show that you are NOT recording, then it will indefinitely stream like the OP is describing.
