There's very little point having a digital terrestrial television aerial feed into both a television set and the Stream puck attached to the same set.  The television tuner is likely to be more versatile, particularly if the television permits recording to USB.

I don't have the TV input app at all on my puck.   It appears I have the latest software though.


It's probably more useful to glass TVs (in the event of an internet issue) than the pucks ..... hence the surprise when it appeared a few days ago. It's always been present on the glass but only accessible when there was no internet connection detected .

I'm not seeing the aerial input on my puck now.  Still there on the Glass television.

I just been on the phone to Sky and a very helpful individual has confirmed it's been removed on stream but only on glass

Personally, I'm not intending to swap my TV aerial connection from my TV to the Puck. It seems a bit pointless. Makes much more sense if you have a Glass TV as @Jporch316 mentioned.

Ditto ..... at least we now know the aerial socket is active on the pucks

We don't know, but to be honest, we don't really need it.
