HDHomerun isnt showing up on my Plex after updating to TOS 5

Post by drakey83 »

Like the title says, ever since i updated to TOS 5 I can no longer see my HDHomerun through my Plex. Is there a setting that I need to enable to allow this to work? I am fairly new to NAS stuff and I feel like its an easy fix that I am just missing. Any help would be appreciated.

Hello, thanks for the responcese. Just to verify that you guys know what I am talking about the HDHomerun is a a TV tuner box that streams your local TV signal over your network and should be able to be seen by your Plex and incorperated in its "Live TV & DVR" feature. This used to work for me as intended before I updated from TOS 4.0 to TOS 5.0.

I have the latest version of Plex server that I have downloaded directly from Plex from here: https://www.plex.tv/media-server-downloads/

I have also made sure that I have granted the Media User group read/write access to the Plex folder.

Sorry, we don't know much about this. I don't know whether HDHomeRun's broadcast uses a common protocol or a protocol dedicated to HDHomeRun. I think you can refer to and compare the situation of the Plex version on the WIndows side.

This is what I am trying to do, the attached screen shot is the error I always get and the spinning circle never goes away indecationg that it found the HDHomerun on its own. I am also not able to find my NAS sing the TNAS software (not sure if this is related or can help narrow it down). The TNAS software can't see my NAS on any of the computers I have attempted to install it on (4) and I have to manually map the network drive in order to use it on my devices. This all used to work on TOS4 and it now does not on TOS5.

I don't know which hdhomerun you are using, but I noticed recent firmware updates (including yesterday, I think.
F5-221 5.1.123, 8GB System Partition on 3 x 4TB Traid; 3TB EXT4
F2-221 TOS6 (Beta), 8GB System Partition on 2 x 6TB in Traid. (Latest Update 11/04/24)

I was getting the same problem the HDhomerun was not showing on the NAS, but would show up on the PC media server on the same network. So after trying many different things that failed? This finally worked for me. I had Link Aggregation enabled on my router, I unchecked and the HDhomerun finally appeared.
