-The first thing to check is if you already have an "external" device that can be used with your existing TV set, via the HDMI port. The HDHomeRun supports Apple TV (the physical streaming device that is a small black box, not the Apple TV app or streaming service), Fire TV, Roku, Android TV, Google TV, and Xbox (One or Series).

-DLNA
+Some TV sets support the older DLNA standard that looks at your local network for "media servers" and presents them as basic files or options. The HDHomeRun should automatically show up as one of these DLNA media servers, with each channel showing up as a "file" that can be played for live TV. This interface tends to be very basic on most TV sets, and does not have access to guide data or recording options for the optional HDHomeRun DVR service. This option might also show up as "UPnP" or "Input", depending on the TV.
