Discover or add the device

  1. 1During onboarding, Multiview automatically looks for Tablo Legacy and HDHomeRun devices using their cloud discovery directories.
  2. 2To retry later, open Settings → Manage Sources, choose Add Source, then Tablo (Legacy).
  3. 3Choose Auto-Discover. If no device appears, find its IP address in your router settings and use manual address entry.
  4. 4Wait for the channel lineup to load, then open the source details to confirm its channel count and connection information.
Good to know: Keep Multiview and the tuner on the same network with internet access for discovery. If no device is found, retry Auto-Discover or enter its local IP address manually.

Refresh the lineup

After changing channels on the Tablo itself, refresh the source in Multiview so Guide and Channel Lineup use the latest information.

Good to know: Tablo Legacy uses a local-network connection. It does not use the Tablo Gen 4 account sign-in flow.
