Rimavich: /* Additional guides and links */ Adding VBox TV Gateway support

{{:PVR/Contents}}
{{mininav|[[PVR]]|[[Recording software]]}}
<section begin="intro" />'''Tvheadend''' is a open source TV streaming PVR backend (server) software application for Linux supporting DVB-S(2), DVB-C(2), DVB-T(2), ATSC, IPTV (UDP/HTTP), and Analog video (V4L) as input sources, and it can be used as a [[PVR backend]] of {{Kodi}}. Version 3.4 and layer of Tvheadend also include support for timeshifting (pausing of Live TV).

By levering existing third-party [[PVR backend]] applications such as '''Tvheadend''' that specialize in receiving television signals and support a [[wikipedia:client–server model|client–server model]] which {{Kodi}} can access via a [[PVR|PVR client addon]], these PVR features allows you to watch Live TV, listen to radio, view a EPG TV-Guide, schedule recordings and enables many other TV related features, all using {{Kodi}} as your primary interface once the initial pairing connection to '''Tvheadend''' have been done and and configuration of the [[PVR|PVR client addon]] for it is complete.<section end="intro" />
__TOC__
{{-}}
== Preinstalled options ==
The following XBMC/OS distributions come with Tvheadend already installed, or easily installed as an option. These are great one-stop solutions that can greatly simplify the installation of the backend, as well as various other benefits unique to those distros.
* [[OpenELEC]] - In addition to coming with Tvheadend software and a Tvheadend Kodi PVR add-on, OpenELEC has both current Kodi v12 builds (with native PVR support) as well as special Kodi v11 PVR builds.

== Installing Tvheadend ==

;Basic
:Most Debian and Ubuntu installations can take advantage of the standard [[w:Advanced Packaging Tool|APT]] installation methods for getting Tvheadend installed, either using a GUI package manager, or from the command line using "<code>apt-get install tvheadend</code>". The install procedure normally creates a user named "hts", which is the user Tvheadend will run as. You should check that the "hts" user has sufficient permissions to your tuner (usually /dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0). Running the command "<code>sudo adduser hts video</code>" should be sufficient.

:For more info, see: https://tvheadend.org/projects/tvheadend/wiki/Download

;Raspberry Pi
:The easiest way to get Tvheadend on the Raspberry Pi is to use [[OpenELEC]] or [[Raspbmc]]. You can also use the Arch Linux ARM instructions below if you are using Arch Linux ARM on the R-Pi.

;Arch Linux
{{see|HOW-TO:Install Tvheadend on Arch Linux}}
(including PogoPlug)

;Synology NAS
:You can install Tvheadend from the Syno Community repo through the DiskStation Manager: http://www.synocommunity.com/repository

== Tvheadend quick start guide ==
;{{Note|This is just the most basic steps needed to get a signal from your PVR backend to XBMC. This guide probably doesn't include everything you will want to do, like name channels, get the electronic programming guide (EPG/TV guide) set up, remove channels, etc.
::For help with those features see '''[[#Additional guides and links]]'''.}}

If you are on a different machine than Tvheadend, then point your browser to <nowiki>http://IP.ADDRESS.GOES.HERE:9981</nowiki> , where IP.ADDRESS.GOES.HERE = the IP address of the machine that Tvheadend is installed on.

# Click on the '''Configuration''' tab

# From the menus select your location and the type of signal you are trying to receive. In this example we're using a generic list for QAM, a US signal for cable TV.
# Then click "'''Add DVB Network'''" at the bottom.
|- valign="top" |
| '''6.''' || [[File:tvheadend4.png|right]] Wait for the number under "'''Muxes awaiting initial scan'''" to reach zero. If the number under "'''Services'''" is also zero, then that means Tvheadend has not picked up any channels. You may need to check your hardware or if you've selected the right signal type (step 5), or even your tuner driver (see http://linuxtv.org for driver support).

It might be possible that the firmware can't be found. Check <code>dmesg</code> for messages like the following:
<pre>[ 3931.964710] xc5000: waiting for firmware upload (dvb-fe-xc5000c-4.1.30.7.fw)...
[ 3931.970217] xc5000: Upload failed. (file not found?)</pre>

In this case, the Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-950Q tuner can't locate the firmware. You should download the desired firmware (the 950Q firmware can be found at http://www.kernellabs.com/firmware/xc5000/) and place in the correct directory (for Ubuntu this is <code>/lib/firmware/</code>). You should then see this message in <code>dmesg</code>:
<pre>[ 4791.147048] xc5000: firmware read 16497 bytes.
[ 4791.147049] xc5000: firmware uploading...
[ 4794.976020] xc5000: firmware upload complete...</pre>

|- valign="top" bgcolor="whitesmoke" |
| '''7.''' || [[File:tvheadend5.png|right|border]] Click on "'''Map DVB services to channels'''". You should now be able to pick up TV channels in Kodi once you configure the Tvheadend add-on configuration in the next section, "'''[[#Connecting Kodi to Tvheadend]]'''".

== I want to run my PVR backend server on... ==
You can run the PVR backend server on one of your existing {{Kodi}} installs, or on its own. Just use the tables below and click on the PVR backend software which looks to best fit your needs.

=== Android ===
Sorry but there are not yet any generically compatible PVR backend software applications that runs natively on Android and have a PVR client addon for {{Kodi}}. Android is currently only added here on this page because requests and enquirers about PVR backends for Android compatible with {{Kodi}} is a frequently asked question.

If you want to get access to Live TV, EPG, and the other PVR features in Kodi running on Android today then you currently need to use an IPTV client or use a workaround such as running your PVR backend on a other a computer or device on your local network to stream the video to Kodi running on Android, (like example on a [[PVR recording software#Raspberry Pi|Raspberry Pi]])

==== Raspberry Pi ====
The [[Raspberry Pi]] series is technically just embedded Linux platforms, but their low price and very capable hardware make it almost perfect as PVR backend for Kodi. In addition to this, since a lot of people are using Raspberry Pi and Raspberry Pi 2 as PVR backends, it makes it much easier for the Kodi community to streamline setup guides and provide help to use Raspberry Pi as a PVR backend due to most of the hardware being the same for everyone. For comp ability and links to these guides please see the [[PVR recording software#Linux (including Raspberry Pi)|Linux]] matrix above and the community forums.

Like every PVR backend, the server needs to receive the live signal from a receiver. A typical TV-tuner USB-stick will do, but be aware that such a USB-stick takes its power supply via the USB-interface. It might be required to put a USB-hub with independent power-supply between the Raspberry Pi and the TV-tuner USB-stick. Make sure that the TV-tuner USB-stick you choose works with both Linux OS on the Raspberry Pi hardware. Much more information can be found at http://linuxtv.org, including firmware downloads for many sticks. Alternatively, you may want to check the directory /lib/firmware on the R-Pi to list the firmware already installed.

/var/log/dmesg and .kodi/temp/kodi.log are files to check if the TV signal is not available.

== I want to run my PVR backend server on... ==
You can run the PVR backend server on one of your existing XBMC installs, or on its own.

Use the tables below and click on the PVR backend software which best fits your needs.

=== Android ===
Sorry but there are not yet any compatible PVR backends that runs natively which have a PVR client addon for {{Kodi}}. Android is only added here on this page because requests and enquirers about PVR backends for Android compatible with {{Kodi}} is a frequently asked question.

If you want to get access to Live TV, EPG, and the other PVR features in Kodi running on Android then you currently need you use a workaround today such as runing your PVR backend on a other a computer or device on your local network to stream the video to Kodi running on Android

=== Raspberry Pi ===
The Raspberry Pi is technically just an embedded linux platform, but it's low price and features make it perfect for a PVR backend. In addition to this, since a lot of people will hopefully be using R-Pi's as backends, it will make it easier to streamline setup guides and provide help due to most of the hardware being the same for everyone.

Like every backend, the server needs to receive the live signal from a receiver. A typical DVB USB stick will do, but be aware that such a stick takes its power supply via the USB interface. It might be required to put a USB hub with independent power supply between the R-Pi and the DVB stick. Make sure that the DVB stick works with the linux OS on the R-Pi. Information can be found at http://linuxtv.org, including firmware downloads for many sticks. Alternatively, you may want to check the directory /lib/firmware on the R-Pi to list the firmware already installed.

/var/log/dmesg and .xbmc/temp/xbmc.log are files to check if the TV signal is not available.
