DVBLink TV Server for NetGear NAS - looking for beta testers

[dvblogic]

Goodday everyone,

We have released for a public beta our DVBLink TV Server product for x86 NETGEAR NAS models. DVBLink turns ReadyNAS into a personal video recorder with support for satellite (DVB-S/S2), Cable (DVB-C and QAM) and terrestrial (DVB-T/T2 and ATSC) reception. You can record your favorite TV programs in original quality directly to ReadyNAS & distribute live & recorded TV throughout your house.

For this product we are looking for beta testers - especially for Ultra Plus and Pro ReadyNAS models. Everyone is welcome. Please let us know how the product works for you - either here or over at our forums.
The beta topic with download and configuration instructions can be found here:

Thank you and merry Christmas and a happy New year to all of you!

I am wondering why you guys don't have a DVBLink Personal Video Recorder for sparc. Do you have any plan to release DVBlink for sparc?

Yeah I appreciate an addon for ReadyNAS Duo (SPARC).

An add-on for Sparc is highly unlikely. Sparc is EOL and might not be powerful enough for recording TV anyway even if the DVBLink TV Server could be ported to it.

I think if the DVBLink isn't decoding the output of the DVBT Source and only forwards the stream to the Client, the NAS should have enough power for this.

But recording and compressing the DVBT Stream could be a problem. And saving the DVBT stream into a file will need a lot of space 😄

Just would like to confirm that currently there are no plans to port DVBLink to SPARC-based NETGEAR NAS models.

Hi dvblogic,
If you have a beta release for the new generation of ReadyNAS based on firmware 6.0 x86, i would be glad to test it.
I tried to install your version for Readynas firmware 4.0 but 6.0 accept only debian package.

Cheers,

Jon
