HDHomeRun Connect review: Easily stream over-the-air TV to any device on your network<article>
<section class="page">
<p>
Thousands of hours of free standard-definition and high-definition television streams past most American households every week completely ignored in favor of cable, satellite, and online programming. Over-the-air (OTA) TV switched over to digital right around the time it also seemed to lose its purpose.</p><p>
But if you’ve ditched a cable or satellite subscription for Netflix, Sling TV, Amazon, and even TV seasons on DVD from the library, a networked digital tuner can fill a gap with a one-time cost for free programming that you can stream, capture, and watch on multiple devices without restrictions.</p><p>
SiliconDust makes a lineup of networked OTA tuners, one of which can also accept a CableCard and receive subscription-based digital television. With the right software on any computer or mobile device on a local network, you can watch television streamed live or record it for playback. (The CableCard option lets you sidestep buying or renting a provider’s model of DVR or a third-party one, if you do subscribe to cable.) The tuners have no local storage.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/2920242/hdhomerun-connect-review-easily-stream-over-the-air-tv-to-any-device-on-your-network.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
