I have no experience of actual HdHomerun devices, but I tried emulating HDHomerun with tvheadend and antennas when I was setting up. I didn’t get that to work with Plex, so I’m not sure that would work with jellyfin either. It wouldn’t make sense to buy new equipment since Plex works fine with what I already own (and I generally avoid buying USA products)
That's fair
However I have to say the HDhomerun has been fantastic. It is a simple device that provides a local web API that allows devices on the network to request a channel stream. My device died after a few years and they replaced it for free.
If Plex works for you that's great. However if your current setup breaks I would look into the HDhomerun
I will keep that in mind!
