Assuming I have a Roamio Plus for Cable content and a Tivo HD for OTA content - should I replace the Tivo HD with a Tivo-renewed Roamio basic with the $400 lifetime deal?
I see two advantages - an additional 2 OTA tuners and support for Tivo Online. In addition, I guess if I purchased a Tivo Mini in the future, the basic Roamio would have its tuners available too. I don't have android or apple devices but do have PC's in two rooms so the new Tivo Online looks like a great way of watching TV there without a Mini. I know the mini works great with a TV but it's not always convenient to put a TV everywhere. The SD HDHome View application works well in those locations currently.
Is there any additional integration from the Roamio Plus interface for the Roamio basic that I wouldn't have on the Tivo HD? I believe file transfers for Tivo Multi-Room Viewing (MRV) work the same for both the HD and the Roamio. Tivo Desktop should work with both the HD and the Roamio. I know nothing about Plex but assume that whatever Tivo did this month was a client to get additional content to the Tivo and not a server setup to distribute Tivo content to other devices so should be a non-factor.
I currently have WMC with both OTA and Cablecards and am considering alternatives because of lack of Windows 10 support.
