Hi

 

I have a few questions.

 

1. Can this be used for live TV streaming ?

2. Does it get an EPG ?

3. Can it do PVR functionality ?

4. Can it play recorded TV ?

5. Can it do scheduled recording ?

6. Can it play music ?

 

Thanks in advance

Interesting, I just set it all up

My only complaint is how slow it is to switch to the live TV stream, otherwise great work devs

@@ebr, I am planning on getting and NVidia shield.  It now has the ability to decode MPEG2.  Comcast here transmits their channels using MPEG2 and the HDHR3-CC (HDHR Prime) I have outputs the channels in it's native format of MPEG2.

 

Will the Android TV app stream the feed directly to the device and not have EMBY transcode? 

 

You insight would be most appreciative.

Using what Live TV plug-in?  Possibly with Emby TV.  I'm not sure about the others.

Yes, Emby TV.. Currently I'm using ServerWMC but look toward ditching MCE soon.

Well, for right now we have not been able to make direct streaming from the HDHR work so it will still transcode.  Hopefully, that will change in the future.
