I have 2 KODI installs [Jarvis], one on a Win 7 Laptop and one on a 1 month old NVIDIA Shield [firmware has been upgraded]. Both work well for most things.
I have a 1 week old HD Homerun Extend [using OTA for an input] and when using my laptop, it works perfectly with VLC albeit VLC is not user friendly to skip from one channel to another [to be kind]. I can also use the Win 7 PC to record to my WD MYBOOKLIVE drive, using VLC, and have had no issues with live viewing while recording or playback.[should put network issues to rest]
On both my functioning KODI installs, the HD HomeRun is not usable because of constant buffering and skipping. The PC running VLC is the same PC I am attempting to run KODI/HDHR.
NOTE: On the NVIDIA Shield, Netflix, HBO, KODI, Pluto, YouTube, etc all work fine with no buffering [well on the rare occasion with KODI]
I have 30Meg internet [verified weekly via speed test].
I have Jarvis for KODI and the Shield is running Android Lollipop.
I would like to purchase the HDHR DVR software & a new WD Cloud NAS but I am reluctant to do so if I cannot get HDHR to play nice with KODI. I am not about to drop KODI as in all other respects it works very well for me.
