HDHomeRun is a network-attached digital television tuner box, produced by the company SiliconDust USA, Inc.




Overview


Unlike standard set-top box (or set-top unit) appliances, HDHomeRun does not have a video output that connects directly to the user's television. It instead receives a live TV signal and then streams the decoded video over a local area network to an existing smart phone, tablet computer, smart tv, set top streaming device, computer, or game console. This allows it to stream content to multiple viewing locations.




Compatibility


The HDHomeRun can be controlled and viewed from a wide variety of DVR/PVR software. Microsoft provides Windows Media Center for Windows XP through 8, but discontinued the product in Windows 10. Apple macOS 10 runs EyeTV 3. Linux runs Myth TV.
Newer models of HDHomeRun are DLNA device compatible.

HDHomeRun PRIME


Introduced in Fall 2011, the HDHomeRun PRIME provided the ability to view and record all the digital cable channels the user subscribed to without using a cable-supplied set-top-box. The device employed a CableCARD to replace the set-top box. The HDHomeRun PRIME could be integrated with Windows Media Center (WMC). With 3 tuners, the PRIME let you record two programs and watch another live simultaneously. Due to a change in FCC regulation (cable service providers no longer have to make CableCARDs available to their customers), they are no longer in production.




HDHomeRun Premium TV


Launched in 2018, HDHomeRun Premium TV was a virtual MVPD service that worked with the HDHomeRun Prime and HDHomeRun DVR service. A notable feature of this service was the ability to record the channel streams to a local hard drive for time-shifted viewing. In March 2019, HDHomeRun announced that it would shut down its Premium service.
