Troubleshooting—Tablo DVR and App Initial Set Up

Only 24 Hours of Guide Data Visible 

The Live TV grid guide will always display 
24 hours of guide data. To browse the full 
14 days of guide data available, consult the 
guide screens including TV shows, Movies, 
and Sports.

Guide Data is Incorrect or Missing

 

For incorrect data or data missing from 
specific channels, contact Tablo Support for 
assistance. While we work to correct your 
guide data problem, try entering a zip/postal 
code from a neighboring area by selecting 
‘edit location’ in the settings screen.

Video Playback is Loading 
or Pausing Frequently

 

This is typically a home network  
bandwidth issue. First, reduce the  

Max Recording Quality

 in the settings 

screen. (Note: Changes to this setting will 
apply immediately to live TV and then to all 
future recordings.) If possible, connect your 
playback device and/or Tablo via Ethernet 
instead of WiFi to rule out potential WiFi 
interference and/or network congestion.

Video Playback is Pixelated/Audio Drops Out

 

OTA antenna signal strength is inadequate 
or reduced. Check your antenna’s 
connection to Tablo and/or its position.  
Run a new channel scan within settings  
to determine current signal strength. 

Recordings Incomplete or Failed 

OTA antenna signal and/or external hard 
drive were unavailable at the time of the 
recording. Antenna and/or hard drive  
may require attention. 

Hard Drive Not Recognized 

If you have connected a USB hard drive and 
its details are not shown in your settings 
screen AND/OR you have not received 
a prompt to format it during the setup 
process, try rebooting the Tablo using the 
blue reset button on the back. If you still do 
not receive a prompt to format the drive, 
contact Tablo Support for assistance.
