  • Looking for a program to Emulate cable tv with my local video media library
    But yeah, No, Kodi has an EPG built in that multiple plugins use (that have nothing to doo with tv tuning or dvr, lol) https://pseudotvlive.com/. Source: about 1 year ago
  • Hey guys, I've been looking to build a media project that mimics a broadcast TV channel for personal use. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • Does Kodi support HDR passthrough using an x86 processor or an nvidia/AMD dGPU on Linux now?
    Its all good. I use to run Kodi on a HTPC that I built with openelec and it was pretty stable. I am not sure if it is available anymore (openelec.tv) it was a linux distro. I switched to NVidia shield due to the accessibility to Netflix and Amazon and I have not looked back. Oh an its cheaper than a HTPC I think... Source: about 2 years ago
  • Got Jellyfin a few days ago and LOVE the web version, but bad Roku app is a dealbreaker. Before I can it, are there any work arounds you guys have found?
    I know there are various customized distros for the RasPi, such as OpenElec, but as a staunch Linux and FLOSS advocate I still don't think that's what most people are searching for when they look for a streaming device these days. Source: about 3 years ago
