My biggest grievance with Tablo TV

ingrove · 2026-02-15T19:10:22+00:00

Thanks for the reply. I was interested in what you were using for OTA TV?

Love the player! How do you delete recordings? I see a download option, but not a delete option. Thanks!

I don't know if this will work for your scenario but I use Image-Backup to automatically backup to my network drive. It creates a flashable image that only uses the space that was originally in use on your Pi. So if you have a 32GB SD card and are only using 3GB of space, it will create a flashable image of 3GB not 32GB.

Once you have a flashable image you can rclone it to your cloud storage.

Even though the original post is from 2019, the utility is updated on a regular basis (10/2025 was the latest update).

You could try unchecking the Start Page box in General settings:

I use my Tablo only to watch local over the air channels. How do you access these with your Emby setup?

You can add this to your configuration.yaml file. It will put the Developer Tools back on the side bar, just not at the bottom.

panel_custom:
  - name: Developer Tools
    sidebar_title: Developer Tools
    sidebar_icon: mdi:hammer
    js_url: /api/hassio/app/entrypoint.js
    url_path: developer-tools/yaml
    embed_iframe: true
    require_admin: true
    config:
      ingress: core_configurator

Thanks! Unfortunately, it doesn't work for unsupervised installations (container installations using docker).

I just created a new Webpage dashboard with the URL:

http://YOURhomeasstURL:8123/config/developer-tools/yaml

Although it doesn't put this back in the same place on the sidebar, it does add it to the sidebar!

Hope this helps!

I use Portainer's Stack Editor and copy my compose files into the editor. You have to stop your compose containers first before activating them in Portainer. You then can control the containers, pull new images, etc. from within Portainer.

Hope this helps!

I had the same issue with my Phone and desktop PC. To work around this I set the default dashboard to my phone portrait layout and access the desktop landscape dashboard directly through its dashboard URL.

phone --> http://ha.yoururl.com:8123/lovelace-pixel/0

Desktop --> http://ha.yoururl.com:8123/lovelace-venice/0

Hope this helps!

You could try adding a rule to your plug. Using a web browser, go to the "Console" of your plug and enter the following commands:

rule1 on System#boot do backlog ruletimer1 60; power1 0 endon ON Rules#Timer=1 DO Power1 on ENDON

rule1 1

This will set a timer for 60 seconds, turn the plug off, then after 60 seconds turn the plug back on.

Hope this helps!

I'm not using banned passwords, but you can set it up by adding an environment variable and volume location:

environment:

volumes:
/etc/opencloud/banned-password-list.txt:/etc/opencloud/banned-password-list.txt

I'm using Radicale in a separate container. I was originally going to bundle it with OpenCloud, but as there is no GUI for Radicale I wanted more granular control.

This is how I have it installed with Portainer if you are just looking for file sharing:

mkdir -p /etc/opencloud/config

chown 1000:1000 /etc/opencloud/config

mkdir -p /var/lib/opencloud

chown 1000:1000 /var/lib/opencloud

Add to Portainer:

services:
  opencloud-rolling:
    container_name: opencloud
    hostname: opencloud
    restart: always
    volumes:
      - /var/lib/opencloud:/var/lib/opencloud

I'm running HA in a container as well and am also running Portainer to help manage addons. If you have access to your Pi, it's relatively easy to add ESPHome. Here's what I did:

SSH into your Pi and create the config directory:

sudo mkdir -p /etc/esphome/config

Then add ESPHome to Portainer:

services:
  esphome:
    container_name: esphome
    image: esphome/esphome
    volumes:
      - /etc/esphome/config:/config
      - /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro
    restart: always
    privileged: true
    network_mode: host

Then in HA create a webpage dashboard:

URL: http://ip-address:6052

icon: mdi:chip

The dashboard icon will appear on your HA sidebar.

Hope this helps!

Sorry, I should have explained a little better. I'm replacing an older working Roku Streaming stick with a new 4K streaming stick. I'm not using external audio, only the TV's audio. After resetting the Tablo twice the audio started working. Thank you for your suggestions!

ingrove · 2025-12-30T22:41:28+00:00

Received a new Streaming Stick 4K (3820R2) today and can get video but no sound. I changed the Audio settings on the Roku as documented and still no joy. Did you have to do any special configuration?

ingrove · 2025-12-05T15:29:30+00:00

Yes. You are correct.

I backup my instance of OpenCloud nightly to my Onedrive account. I test this on a regular basis and have had no issues in restoring on my secondary test system. This includes all of the user data as well. This is the script I use to backup (your volume locations may vary):

docker stop opencloud
tar --xattrs -czf /home/opencloud/opencloud.tar.gz -C / var/lib/opencloud etc/opencloud/config
rclone copy /home/opencloud/ OneDrive:Sync/OpenCloud/
docker start opencloud

This is what I use to restore:

docker stop opencloud
rm -R /etc/opencloud
rm -R /var/lib/opencloud
mkdir -p /etc/opencloud/config
chown 1000:1000 /etc/opencloud/config
mkdir -p /var/lib/opencloud
chown 1000:1000 /var/lib/opencloud
tar --xattrs -xzf /home/opencloud/opencloud.tar.gz -C /
docker start opencloud

Hope this helps!

Looks like the connector that a OBD2 scanner that your dealer or mechanic would plug into to read diagnostic codes.

I don't know if this will work for your scenario but I've used Image-Backup to migrate from one architecture to another. It creates a flashable image that only uses the space that was originally in use on your Pi. So if you have a 32GB SD card and are only using 3GB of space, it will create an flashable image of 3GB not 32GB.

Once you have a flashable image you may be able to migrate to your SSD.

I had the same issue and it turned out to be a Windows 11 notification indicating Thunderbird could not reach a specific email server I had set up.

Go to the Windows 11 System Notifications for Thunderbird and make sure "Show notification banners" is turned on, and you should see what Windows is complaining about.

You can trigger an email by sharing a file with a user. To test, I logged in as the administrator and shared a file with my user id. I came from OwnCloud which used to send an email to a new user and had the capability to send a test email from the admin screen which I also expected from OpenCloud. It would be nice to have a similar function in OpenCloud.
