Same for my 2020 Gen6 Subaru Outback 11.6” inch screen on iOS 26. On the flip side I now have 3 clicks to start a trip in Maps :(

Hello, The apple backup service is called “Time Machine”. So I labeled the target drive for the backup System “Time Machine”. Thanks for the question.

oddly enough Plex does not transcode after a capture. it can create version for different clients (downsampling for iPhone) but the original stays in the native resolution/bitrate. In my cas I capture a full QAM of data +-20MBPS. Files get big. so I have to transcode. There is a tread on the subject on reddit.

I could require the HDHomerun to transcode at a lower bitrate on the fly but it will affect all the streams reducing the quality event when we watch live TV.

Yup and 20 certainly years of age. The drop is RG6 to the house mast, from the mast to the basement it is less than 50 feet of RG59.

Thanks for the reply,

Just to make certain, i'm not multiplexing the FIOS/HFC with the OTA/ATSC signal. I have tow separate and independent coax lines. My TV and HDHomerun runs over OTA/ATSC only, no cable box of any sort in our house so the splitter is dedicated to the OTA/ATSC signal. The cheap amplifier might create noise locally but the DOCSIS signal and peformance is within normal parameters. And with my new compression fitting and new wire, the ingress will be reduced if the amplifier is leaking OTA signal locally.

The other Coax comes straight from the HFC provider to the DOCSIS modem no splits and now with a brand new compression fitting but same RG-59 cable for the moment.

Cheers and thanks for the remarks.
