Samsung TV Plus Channels Have DRM Like On Demand Content
“People use NextPVR to record Samsung TV Plus channels as its drm is only for its on demand and none of your sources mention Samsung TV Plus Having DRM stop spreading misinformation”
Summary
Samsung TV Plus applies DRM that blocks recording, including via PVR software, as confirmed by current guidance. NextPVR does not bypass this protection, and no reliable source indicates it can record Samsung TV Plus channels. Therefore the claim that NextPVR can record those channels because DRM only affects on‑demand content is inaccurate.

It may lack some of the pzazz of some other media players but often that is all they are (media players) and don't offer intelligent scheduling of all your favourite TV shows from one or multiple TV tuners. For example did you know that if the channels you want to watch are on the same DVB mux, it can record multiple shows at the same time, all from a single tuner.
