I assume it will work with both fire sticks and roku?


yes, the hd homerun app runs on roku, firetv, iphones, android..the only thing i know for sure it doesnt work on is chromecast..because...frick google.

If I get a 2 tuner and decide to add another do I run a splitter?


the link above i posted includes a splitter but you can just add a second hd homerun box with 2 tuners and you'll automatically get 4 tuners. just attach them to each other.

or you can get the 4 tuner to start with. honestly i rarely find an issue w/ only having 2 tuners but i use the DVR feature in plex so im not usually trhying to watch 2 live tv shows on different tvs at the same time. if you think you will, you may want to go ahead & get the one with 4 tuners built-in.

and you can add as many as you want; 3 2-tuner hd homeruns to get 6..two 4 tuner homeruns to get 8..a 2 tuner and 4 tuner to get 6....

great product.

if you got the plex pass route you can get to your live tv through the plex app which i know is supported on current appletvs.

Yeah that is what I do. I was just surprised when homerun had an app for everything except that.

Imma throw a couple of things out there. I have a similar setup that cad laid out, antenna in the attic, going to an amplifier then a splitter. One of those goes to an hdhomerun that's also connected to plex. The rest of the splitters feed the Tvs in the house so they can be connected directly, most of my Tvs aren't smart, and while they all have some sort of streaming device connected, it's nice to have a direct connection too sometimes. Plus most of that infrastructure was already in place from previous owners who had cable.

The one thing to note with all that, though is if you have cable internet you'll still need one drop from that line to your modem.

I put it in but it I didn't see what type (out or in) Just that I can use Yellow or Red or Blue or Violet.


Same for me except I'm within 40 miles and mostly Red/Blue.

Which antenna do I need?
