bigjohn 732 Posted December 22, 2014 Posted December 22, 2014 This is just a way to measure demand for Live TV plugins, development is still dependent on individual developers' willingness to put forth the time and effort to bring them to the community. 1
Spaceboy 2565 Posted December 22, 2014 Posted December 22, 2014 Still can't see the poll but the only thing holding me back from mediaportal is MBT. 1

Guest Posted December 23, 2014 Posted December 23, 2014 Maybe he is using Tapatalk? You can't see polls if you use Tapatalk to watch the Forum. I have voted now ;-)
Hisma 15 Posted December 25, 2014 Posted December 25, 2014 mythtv please. it's already a mature product, runs on most *nix & bsd servers, and has solid tv tuner support, including hdhomerun prime. 2
politby 88 Posted December 25, 2014 Posted December 25, 2014 I voted for DVBlogic, mainly because I am a long time user so it's a known quantity to me and it handles my softcams with encrypted dvb-s2 with great stability. Unfortunately I suspect broadcast TV is going to be obsolete by the time we get a plugin. 2
Nikolaech 32 Posted January 11, 2015 Posted January 11, 2015 best program DVBViewer. :-) MythTV :-( DVBLink/DVBLogic :-(
Chubby Arse 23 Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 Still can't see the poll but the only thing holding me back from mediaportal is MBT. Not sure I follow? There is plugin support for Media Portal, but I don't understand why MBT (Media Browser Theatre?) would hold you back from it?
Spaceboy 2565 Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 Well actually I've got dvblink working now thanks to the dev t.andre. So server side it's great. But until MBT works consistently and has some scheduling functionality I'm still with dvblink to wmc.
centralseven 0 Posted January 23, 2015 Posted January 23, 2015 I prefer DVBViewer too. Also tried DVBLink but DVBViewer is IMHO better.
noxx 3 Posted January 24, 2015 Posted January 24, 2015 (edited) tvheadend, in my eyes the best tvserver-software,.....followed by dvbviewer. but we have now 4 windows tv-server tools, and i think its enough at moment. its time for a linux tool. Edited January 24, 2015 by noxx 3
hoppel118 37 Posted January 25, 2015 Posted January 25, 2015 I voted for vdr, but also would like to see tvheadend.
KRA 39 Posted January 25, 2015 Posted January 25, 2015 (edited) tvheadend autorec/search feature just got a lot better with fulltext search. This is the only thing that I truely missed in tvheadend backend before, but now it can search through everything in the epg (not just title) and autorecord based on such search. Edited January 25, 2015 by KRA 2
jose 73 Posted January 25, 2015 Posted January 25, 2015 +1 TVHeadend We need a full linux solution. 2
skl_mobile 4 Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 (edited) +1 for SageTV! Edited February 11, 2015 by skl_mobile 1
dnacore 0 Posted March 2, 2015 Posted March 2, 2015 +1 tvheadend Sometimes Linux is just plain stable, and I'm using an old hardware for my media server running on Ubuntu without any graphical interface. Very light and very stable.. we need full Linux solution.
e123enitan 264 Posted March 6, 2015 Posted March 6, 2015 Hi guys Linux Vu+/Enigma is currently available for testing,check under Live TV forum, go ahead and start testing and shout out it to friends/ families. It cought me by surprise never knew this day will come so soon. Apparently an enthusiastic of MB have been working on Enigmal 2/MB3 add-on for a while and know its available for testing,show support
GrahamH68 3 Posted April 8, 2015 Posted April 8, 2015 (edited) +1 for MythTV. Whilst there are other probably better purely LiveTV apps out there nothing does scheduling across multiple tuners as well as MythTV and since I rarely watch live TV, scheduled recordings is where it's at for me. Edited April 8, 2015 by GrahamH68 1
gjames50 7 Posted April 8, 2015 Posted April 8, 2015 It's not on the list but I would like to see Emby/Media Browser using my Tablo device. Tablo currently has support for Plex and I would think Emby/Media Browser could support this setup as well. 2
Poptartica 12 Posted April 19, 2015 Posted April 19, 2015 (edited) MythTV would be a godsend! Sadly those of us who are using linux boxes with CableCARDs are extremely limited in our options (Myth being one of the very few). I'm lucky in that my particular tuner is working surprisingly good with the new-in-development EmbyTV (which, by the way, I find utterly amazing that it so painlessly picks up everything when just getting a backend normally in these circumstances can be a headache). If I wasn't using that specific box though [HdHomerun], I don't think I'd have any options that worked with my setup. This new feature is really awesome. It's already so good out of the box for how short it's been available to us, I can't wait to see what you guys add Edited April 19, 2015 by Poptartica
bcm00re 18 Posted June 8, 2015 Posted June 8, 2015 I voted for MythTV because when micro$oft stops supporting Media Center I'm going to have to switch to something else (that supports my HDHomerun tuners). 1
ravenium 1 Posted July 8, 2015 Posted July 8, 2015 Seconding (5thing?) MythTV. It's by far the most mature offering with the most flexibility, and every time I've switched away, I've come back. I too own a CableCard setup w/HDHR Prime (which, ok, I guess you could just make a DLNA client for LiveTV), and just about every other offering outside of WMC (eww) has just fallen short when it comes to being able to properly handle it. Currently I've gone so far as to move MythBuntu onto a VM that runs alongside a few others and does the recording to a shared drive. For front end I currently use Kodi with mythtv plugins, then Plex for playing recordings over the internet. Plex currently has issues transcoding in the mobile clients (and paid sharing), so I thought I'd give Emby a try on the numerous recommendations out there. 1
