Pancho 9 Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 First off, appreciate all the outstanding work the Emby Team has completed with LiveTV setup on all the other platforms (AndroidTV, web, etc.). Reaching out to see if there is any status on when LiveTV functionality might be headed to the TVOS app? Currently I have to use the Channels app as a workaround. Would love to keep my TVOS users using Emby ecosystem for everything. Thanks. Pancho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37065 Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 It's in our plans. Just a matter of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muzzakus 0 Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Seems android tv has just been updated for this, hopefully not much longer for atv. I might be living in a bubble but I would think atv to gave much larger penetration than other devices? Curious to know the user breakdown per platform....

allen00se 18 Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 Odds of this happening in 2016? Just cut the cord and am trying to decide if I want to buy the "Channels" app for my appletv... its $24 so obviously I would prefer to just wait for Emby.

mellomade 140 Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 Just cut the cord and am trying to decide if I want to buy the "Channels" app for my appletv... its $24 so obviously I would prefer to just wait for Emby. FWIW - I use the Channels app and it is awesome. Completely worth the $24. The huge advantage to Channels vs Emby is that the Channels guys use their own custom video player which supports decoding MPEG-2 streams directly on the ATV4. Emby would have to transcode anything from the HDHomerun unless you are using the model with the built-in hardware transcoder (EXTEND model).

Vitale4 15 Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 My Son has an AppleTV and is interested in using EMBY to stream LiveTV. I see from this thread that it is not available yet. Is the ETA for this feature? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37065 Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 There is still a little bit to go but it is actively being worked on. Thanks ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

muvvasrikanth 0 Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 Hi any update on the status. Due to lack of this feature i have been switching players. Please let me know if you can add me as a beta tester for Apple tv. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PScherrer 0 Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 I'm waiting for this necessary feature too. Any timeplans when LiveTV will be possible? I've networktunes with tvheadend and when emby is capable of playing LiveTV on AppleTV I'll be happy and all my similar installations (same as mine) can use only emby for all mediatypes, that will be great. Please let us know how your plans are. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
