Freesat → MythTV would be useful. But with what hardware? (infosec.pub)

I bought a Silicondust HD Homerun back before they put their website on Cloudflare. I love the design of having a tuner with a cat5 port, so the tuner can work with laptops and is not dependent on being installed into a PC.

But now that Silicondust is part of Cloudflare, I will no longer buy their products. I do not patronize Cloudflare patrons.

I would love to have a satellite tuner in a separate external box that:

tunes into free-to-air content

has a cat5 connection

is MythTV compatible

Any hardware suggestions other than #Silicondust?

It sounds useful. Though it doesn’t replace or compete with mythTV AFAICT.. it sounds like something that would work with mythTV. Plex could probably sling content that mythTV collects from the air.
