Installer notes
The Windows installer contains multiple parts. It includes the Setup application, firmware updates for HDHomeRun hardware, and DVR storage software. It will attempt to sideload the Windows 10 app on Windows 10, or install the older version of the viewer app for Windows 7/8.
When the HDHomeRun Setup application is open, it will look for all HDHomeRun hardware on the network and attempt to update them using the firmware available at the time the installer was downloaded. When new firmware is available, just download and reinstall the Windows installer to update those files.
The DVR software will be turned off by default and can be turned on by opening up the HDHomeRun Setup application, clicking on the “DVR” tab, and using “Use this PC for recordings”. DVR requires a subscription to work. DVR software should not be installed on a computer that is connected wirelessly or turns on or off frequently. Updating the DVR software can be done by simply downloading the new version of the Windows installer and installing it on top of the existing version. No uninstallation of the old version is necessary.
The DVR tab in the HDHomeRun Setup application also contains the NAS install tool, for installing the DVR software to a NAS from the PC. In that set up the PC is only needed for the installation, and can be turned off afterwards, as the NAS will handle everything else. Updating your NAS's HDHomeRun DVR software is done the same way as on the PC: simply download the new version of the Windows installer, install it, then re-run the NAS install tool on top of the existing version. No uninstallation of the old version is necessary.
The HDHomeRun view app for Windows 7 and Windows 8 is very limited and no longer updated. It does not have access to DVR features, but should still work for live TV.
The Mac installer contains multiple parts.
When the Mac installer is ran, it will attempt to locate all HDHomeRun hardware on the network and update them using the firmware available at the time the installer was downloaded. When new firmware is available, just download and reinstall the Mac installer to update those files.
The installer will give the user a choice to install the HDHomeRun viewing application, the DVR software, or both. DVR software should not be installed on a computer that is connected wirelessly or turns on or off frequently. Updating the DVR software can be done by simply downloading the new Mac installer and installing it on top of the existing version. No uninstallation of the old version is necessary.
