This requires a Plex Pass subscription, which is about £4 pcm or a one-off lifetime £95. The HDHomeRun is listed as supported within Plex's new Live DVR feature. I also setup a Windows PC running the free Plex Media Server software on it, with a few large hard disks in it for storage. It is also prone to crashing on my iPhone and iPad. This can do live pause, but requires a subscription for DVR features and I suspect doesn't work well for set and forget recording. There is a free HDHomeRun iOS app that can play back TV. I get no Freeview breakups unlike what we occasionally do see downstairs on our 2017 Sony 4K TV tuner. It also seems a really strong tuner and can go upstairs near the loft to keep the high quality double-shielded sat coax run short, as it does not need to go anywhere near a TV. This is a small box that simply has a Freeview HD aerial and power go in and a cat Network cable come out.

I bought a £150 HDHomeRun CONNECT QUATRO: HDHR5-4DT(UK) My goal is a whole house HD subscription-free PVR replacement for Sky HD. So far, I can't believe how well this new wave of hardware tuners and software works, even with 4K and HDR. I thought I would share my whole house networked Freeview HD recorder experience, to replace a now dead Windows Media Center with two Freesat HD tuners.
