#REDIRECT [[Add-on:Tvheadend_HTSP_Client]]
Tvheadend is a TV streaming server for Linux supporting DVB-S, DVB-S2, DVB-C, DVB-T, ATSC, IPTV, and Analog video (V4L) as input sources and can be used as a PVR backend of XBMC.
 
==Important notes about Tvheadend==
Tvheadend does not currently support Timeshifting or live rewind, however all other PVR functions should work without issue.
 
==Preinstalled==
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.
