-<WRAP important 100%>HDHomeRun beta software lets customers try out software before it has been released, and give feedback on it. Since beta software has not yet been officially released, it may contain bugs or otherwise not function properly.

-  * Only live over the air TV is supported at present. ​The HDHomeRun PRIME is not currently officially ​supported ​in this release, but we are working to add support, and it likely will work with most cable providers outside of Comcast, as long as the channels are not DRM protected.+  * The HDHomeRun PRIME is not supported.
  
-  * DVR support has not yet been added.+  * DVR playback is available on Roku devices. However, DVR scheduling and recording must be done on another device, such as an iOS mobile device, Android device, or PC
  
   * To hear audio, you need a TV, AV receiver, or soundbar that can decode Dolby Digital or AC3 audio over HDMI. Most modern TVs can do this, though we’ve noticed a few Samsung TVs cannot. All Roku televisions should be able to play audio without any trouble.   * To hear audio, you need a TV, AV receiver, or soundbar that can decode Dolby Digital or AC3 audio over HDMI.
