Thanks. Looking at the Tablo, it's intriguing. How does that setup work? Can I just connect the digital antenna to the tablo and then the tablo to the receiver?
Do I have to have a storage device connected to Tablo (yet another expense, if yes)? Does Tablo need a hard wired connection to router?
Finally, how does Tablo work over my home network by allowing other devices (like another AppleTV) to pull up it's DVR'd content?
ETA: >>Sounds like the answer is yes after watching the video.

quote:Yep, you need an external USB drive.

quote:It works via wifi, but they recommend hard wire for performance reasons.

quote:Yeah, the Tablo works basically like a media server. You interact with it (scheduling recordings, viewing...) via apps. You can use a tablet, phone, Roku, or computer as of now. An AppleTV app will supposedly be out soon.

OTA signals are uncompressed MPEG2 which is pushing the limits of wireless. A wired ethernet connection is recommended.
