Switching over to the PLEX LiveTV & DVR system was a bit of a no-brainer, since I had already purchased the lifetime PLEX Pass. It worked really well, and has a great interface, but it required an extra subscription fee each month, and I had to have a TiVo device on every display to access it.
To do this, you need a tuner, or multiple tuners, which can be achieved by adding a PCI card to your server, or an external tuner like the HDHomeRun devices offered by SiliconDust.Ī few years back, when I first setup my PLEX server, I was using a TiVo DVR for my antenna. Before you can use it for live tv, however, you need to connect a video source - in my case an antenna - to your computer. I think it's a great platform which not only allows me to access my entire media library on all my devices whether I'm home or not, but it also serves as my DVR setup (using PLEX's LiveTV & DVR features requires a PLEX Pass subscription). If you've read many of my posts, you already know that I'm a big PLEX user.
