Plex DVR Features

Plex has rolled out its DVR functionality allowing you to watch and record your favourite TV programmes by pairing it with any digital antenna and an HDHomeRun digital tuner.

Plex, a popular personal media player, is rolling out its DVR functionality today, allowing users to watch and record their favourite programmes by simply pairing Plex with an HDHomeRun digital tuner and any digital antenna. With this functionality, users can watch TV including local news, sports, and content from the major networks on almost any device – iOS, Android, Windows, Mac, Linux, Chromecast, Fire TV, Android TV devices, Apple TV, Roku, smart TVS, Xbox, and PlayStation.

Jason Williams, the company’s director of product and growth, said: “We have actually always considered ourselves a part of the cord-cutting movement. As a matter of fact, many of our users today are cord cutters, and we often find ourselves at the top of the list in essential apps for cord-cutter related blogs. DVR support was really just a natural evolution of the product.”

Once set up, Plex will organize the user’s DVR recordings alongside other media such as photos, videos, and music. Recorded TV content will include show descriptions and episode synopsis, among others.
