PVR/Contents

This map will give you a basic idea of what to look for if you are unsure what format/standard your TV signal is in.


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.


Using the tables below, click on the backend software which best fits your needs.

Linux

Name DVB ATSC / QAM ISDB DTMB CableCard (US) IPTV Recording TimeShift Radio
Tvheadend Yes Yes ? ? Yes[1] Yes ? No Yes
VDR Yes Yes ? ? Yes Yes ? yes/no[2] Yes
MythTV Yes Yes No No Yes[3] Yes ? Yes Yes


Mac OS X

Name DVB ATSC / QAM ISDB DTMB CableCard (US) IPTV Recording TimeShift Radio

Windows

ARGUS TV Yes Yes ? ? ? ? ? Yes Yes
NextPVR Yes Yes ? Yes Yes[3] Yes ? Yes Yes
MediaPortal Yes Yes ? ? ? Yes ? Yes Yes
DVBLink Yes ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?


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.

Name DVB ATSC / QAM ISDB DTMB CableCard (US) IPTV Recording TimeShift Radio

PVR/Backend PVR/Backend


Other

Name DVB ATSC / QAM ISDB DTMB CableCard (US) IPTV Recording TimeShift Radio
VU+ for Enigma2 based settop boxes (Dreambox / VU+) Yes ? ? ? ? ? ? ? Yes
DVBLink for Synology NAS Yes ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
Tvheadend for Arch Linux ARM (Pogo Plug, Dockstar, etc) Yes Yes ? ? ? Yes ? No Yes

Notes

  1. Via HDHomerun Prime as the tuner
  2. The normal VDR XBMC add-on currently does not have time-shifting support (work in progress), but the "XVDR Plugin for VDR" does.
  3. 3.0 3.1 Via Silicondust HDHomeRun Prime, the Hauppauge WinTV DCR-2650, or the Ceton InfiniTV 4.
