Suggesting a Linux "app"

Since the new Tablos no longer support web browser viewing (which is how we view our older tablo); and since the company who makes tablo now is keen on apps...how about an "app" for Linux Desktop users so when our old tablo dies, we don't have to look for a new product to replace it with? Linux can be viewed as a "device" too.

Update: The devs could use Flutter to develop their app, or Electron, both are modern platforms for developing cross-platform apps.

Is Tablo still a viable option in 2026?

My wife and I are breaking ground on our new home next month and I was thinking of adding an HD antenna and setting up Tablo for local news and anything that I can't wait until the next day to stream. Are these things still working well? We gave up cable three years ago and haven't really missed it, but this seemed like it might be a neat alternative that doesn't really cost anything other than the initial equipment cost. I just want to make sure things are still working well though, before I factor in the expanse.

We're a 100% Roku family, so we'd be using the Roku Tablo app. I'm assuming that is still a thing.

Legacy firmware update

I have a legacy quad. Time was running out to update the firmware and did it this evening.

First I updated my 2nd generation Apple TV to the latest. That went fine with no issues. Tablo came right up as well as Netflix which I heard some were having audio sync issues. Then updated the Tablo. After reading about issues with the update I was nervous. The update went fine. I'm still using the legacy app.

Can anyone tell me what the difference is between the legacy app and the new app?

Best of luck to those running out of time

Has anyone else noticed that the audio volume is in better balance between Tablo and their streaming boxes, of late?

For a while, I was having to adjust the volume, each time I went from one to the other.

Pairing Expired Error Legacy App iPhone

I suddenly got a pairing expired error on my iPhone with the legacy app. I can still connect to my Tablo on the new app. I prefer the legacy app because I can access my Tablo outside of my network on the old app.

When I select try again I get a connection error. I can still access my Tablo on all my other devices.

I already reset the Tablo and unplugged it. I already deleted the app and reinstalled it.

When I go to add a new Tablo the app sees the Tablo and when I click on that found Tablo I just get a blank screen.

I force quit the app and I continue to get the same errors.

I find it interesting that it thinks I am trying to connect outside of my own network when I am logged into my network. The new version of the app on the same phone can connect to my Tablo, so I know it is not a phone, WiFi, network, or device issue. It has to be an app issue where the app cannot tell that I am on my own network. Also interesting that it says “recently” when I was using the app just hours before the error occurred.

Connectivity issue with Samsung TIZEN TV 4th Gen

Getting an error message stating unable to connect to Tablo servers. Tried rebooting the TV but it didn’t help. Tablo App is working on my phone. Was working fine yesterday. A quick search found—Tablo is experiencing connectivity issues specifically 4th gen affecting Samsung TIZEN and LG WebOS.

I couldn’t find anything regarding this on Tablo’s website. Are others experiencing the same problem? Any insight?

Legacy Tablo Duo: Missing Guide Data

Ever since I updated to 2.2.60, I have gaps in my guide. It appears randomly and later on I will see program data in the channel and then more gaps.

I’ve updated and refreshed. The guide data with no change/ improvement. Anyone else experience this??
