Renewed my home contract and got optik tv upgraded
At some point in the past, I had requested an additional set top box and they sent me a "new" one, a TELUSTV-21T. I did some research and discovered the coming wholesale change from old to new Optik...
The Technicolor set top boxes use the Mediaroom platform vs the cloud-based TELUSTV-21T. The platforms are not compatible with one another. Which platform are you looking to use moving forward?
I am just curious if the new cloud-based optik TV service has one optik device designated as the PVR and all the others talk to it or if they equally access the cloud storage directly to retrieve programs? In other words, is there one box that should have hardwired network and maybe even UPS to ensure smooth operations? And who remembers the scheduled recordings? The cloud itself or one/each of the boxes?
