Hi, I have had some experience with these applications and am not particularly happy with any of them. Whether you will be, I think, depends upon what you'd like to do and the extent to which you want to use advanced features. As for Plex, it's usable, but that's all that can be said. There are many unlabeled links in the windows web-based application, the Android app is a pain both because of lack of labelling and because it seems to have keyboard issues over and above those in Android more generally, and I haven't tried the IOS app. I can, on the windows/web version, scan for channels, watch them, and use the program guide in a sense, but it is not quick or easy to do. Note that I have only used Plex to try to access a TV tuner with their premium product, I prefer to use other media players to play my own offline content and, given Plex's accessibility issues, I wouldn't use it as a cloud media player even if I wanted such a player. Note also that I am not able to access closed captioning at all. I've also tried next PVR, but it is almost useless. The keyboard shortcuts only work to do a few things, the window is not accessible at all and the EPG is not usable. There is no access to closed captioning. I haven't tried WinTV's stuff recently, but when I tried it some years ago, it was hopeless unless all you wanted to do was to change channels. I'm honestly not sure of any decent application for any operating system which will give access to over-the-air or cable broadcasts. I would appreciate any correction or suggestions, and am sorry to be of so little help. Aman

Hi. Has anyone here tried stuff like Plex? Cause that seems to be the biggest thing people are using to kinda sorta replace the epic Windows Media Center. Shame real shame on Microsoft for doing away with it. But in any case I did wander how accessible or even usable any of these other programs are. Do any of you either yourselves or because of family have an HD Home Run Prime? If so have you tried the apps? They any usable? What about Haupauge's Win TV app for their Wibn TV tooners? -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
