Fedora / Red Hat

VDR and the necessary plugin to connect it to Kodi is part of Fedora since version 18. There is no need to compile anything or use third party repositories. Just follow the instructions here.

Installing Backend

sudo dnf install vdr

Installing VNSI

VNSI is used to make VDR accessible to Kodi.

sudo dnf install vdr-vnsiserver
sudo nano /etc/vdr/plugins/vnsiserver/allowed_hosts.conf	 ## Enter network addresses of machines allowed to connect to this VDR

Channel Scanning

You only have to scan for available channels once. This depends heavily upon the technology you use to access LiveTV (DVB-T or DVB-S or whatever) and the place where you are. This is an example for DVB-T in Israel:

sudo scandvb -x 0 -o vdr -a 0 /usr/share/dvb/dvb-t/il-All > /etc/vdr/channels.conf  ## Scan Israeli DVB-T service.

Running VDR

Start VDR once manually.

sudo systemctl start vdr

Stop VDR.

sudo systemctl stop vdr

Autostart VDR on every system boot.

sudo systemctl enable vdr
