Please actually read. Seriously. I new, if this doesn’t belong here, sorry.
Hello Internet people, I’ve just gotten to using plex, through a freenas plugin and OMG this thing is amazing. But I can’t seem to find an answer to a particular question that will be the deciding factor for me getting the Plex Pass. And that question is this:
Will plex, installed as a plugin in freenas and with a tv tuner installed in the system and connected to a cable box allow me to use Plex as a TV guide and DVR for all of the channels (Sci-Fi, FX, Showtime, HBO, you know channels included in a cable package)? And if freenas is the problem, could the same be down but in a Windows environment?
I have seen where people have used antennas to get OTA TV through plex, I just want to know if it were possible to replace the antenna with a cable box and get more than OTA TV.
Reason: I have a backup at my mothers house (who has cable) that syncs with my home NAS and I would like to have those paid channels anywhere as well as allowing my mother and myself to DVR as much as possible and never have to delete anything.
