I noticed that HDHomeRun posted on their twitter feed that the 3CC versions of the new Prime tuner were shipping out of Newegg starting yesterday, 8/22. I pre-ordered mine on 5/14 but my order is still in the "On Hold" state.
Has anyone gotten shipment confirmation?

Is Newegg shipping the HDHomeRun Prime 3CC yet?

I ordered one to tinker with/compare with the Ceton. Mine's supposed to be here Thursday. Missing Remote has a review at http://www.missingremote.com/review/sil ... able-tuner which seems to largely echo what I've seen from the others that have gotten them already though - some network/stability issues, and tuner pooling doesn't seem to work properly.stonethecrows wrote:Exciting times. Let us know how you get on with it / ease of setup / glitches etc.
I'm actually most curious how the quality of TA support is.

Why didn't they get the tuner pooling issue fixed in beta? Oh, wait.......beta? What's that?
I still think dynamic tuner pooling is a terrible idea without some way to sync a schedule between all the PCs.

Agreed. The only reason people want tuner pooling is because they don't have softsled.richard1980 wrote:Why didn't they get the tuner pooling issue fixed in beta? Oh, wait.......beta? What's that?

Hmm, I guess so. It's also convenient not having to predetermine what tuners belong to which HTPC. My three HTPCs have the same access to the same tuners but I don't record TV all over the house either.erkotz wrote:Agreed.

And should I replace or add a HTPC all that's needed is to run TV setup on that machine without modifying the others.

But if you had a good extender, or had softsled, why would you need 3 HTPCs like that?mcewinter wrote:Hmm, I guess so.

I see your point, as neither softsled nor a good extender exist.erkotz wrote:But if you had a good extender, or had softsled, why would you need 3 HTPCs like that?mcewinter wrote:Hmm, I guess so.
