Live TV DVR

I only have Plex installed on my NAS, not my PC. I access via the web on my PC. Can you plug the digital tuner into the NAS or does it have to be connected through the PC? I have tried both and Plex does not find the tuner.

Which tuner are you trying to use?

Hauppauge WinTV-DualHD Dual USB 2.0 HD TV Tuner

That kind of tuner needs to be connected directly to the computer that has PMS installed. Additionally that tuner is not supported on a NAS system. So you will either need to move your PMS install to the PC or you need to purchase a network-based tuner.

More information can be found in the support article:

Ok, thanks for help. Any suggestions on a good network tuner that works well with Plex.

If you’re running a WD or Synology NAS I can provide driver to get any Hauppauge tuner working.

Its this model? Do you find it works well or very glitchy?

TerraMaster F2-220 2bay NAS 2.4GHz Intel Dual Core CPU 4K Transcoding Media Server Network Storage (Diskless)

I only support Synology and Western Digital NAS. It’s possible I could support many others, but that would require monetary support from users to happen.

I’ve recorded programs perfectly fine on ancient NAS’s with minimal specs and weak CPU. Reading <20mbps from USB and writing it to disk is not an expensive operation.
