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?

Thanks for the tip! The #Telestar.de website has the same problem I’m boycotting #Silicondust over (Tor-hostility). I appreciate the information nonetheless, as it’s still useful to know my options.
