What's happening on the top TV?!

What's happening on the top TV?!

I am guessing that is the scrambled 4:2:2 coming out of the set top box... and the one below it is the decoded picture.

Yep, the top monitor is what FTA (unencrypted) 4:2:2 looks like with direct HDMI connection from the STB to a monitor.

The bottom monitor is displaying the same STB via live stream to a PC running the free VLC media player.

Weird; on every 4:2:2 feed I've seen on my Edision it's just a black screen over HDMI-

Not tried on the Mio yet, but everything 4:2:2 I have seen before, looks like the top TV.

Depends which service was previously tuned before tuning to a 4:2:2 service. Sometime black, othertimes the Mio 4K has enough valid data that it attempts to apply correction and display.

Streaming from the STB to another device on your network has nothing to do with Internet speed. Your router shares the connection between the STB and the playback device on your local network. No Internet connection is used or needed to stream the STB channels to another device on your network.

I knew there was something I wasn't understanding. I have a good network with all new equipment. Had to replace it after lightning took it out. I just installed a 4TB network drive the other day. Right now, I don't have my STB ran through it, but that's no big deal. I have everything else in the house hooked to it. I'll play with it and see how it goes. Thanks for the info.
