Using the Command Line Configuration Utility (hdhomerun_config)
Open a command prompt or terminal window and change directory to the HDHomeRun installation
directory: "C:\Program Files\Silicondust\HDHomeRun\"
The list of supported commands can be obtained by running hdhomerun_config without any
parameters:
hdhomerun_config discover
hdhomerun_config <id> get help
hdhomerun_config <id> get <item>
hdhomerun_config <id> set <item> <value>
hdhomerun_config <id> scan <tuner> [<filename>]
hdhomerun_config <id> save <tuner> <filename>
hdhomerun_config <id> upgrade <filename>
Discover devices on the network
The discover command will find devices that are on the same subnet as the host:
hdhomerun_config discover
Sending commands to a specific device
The “<id>” shown above represents a unique identifier for a device, this can be either Device ID, or IP
address:
hdhomerun_config <device id> get help
hdhomerun_config <ip address> get help
To address by Device ID the device must be on the same subnet as the host.
A Device ID of FFFFFFFF can be used as a wild card for the first device found on the network. Do not
use this syntax if there are multiple devices on the network, as the device used will be random based on
discovery order, which may change between commands.
