  1. Great software

    XSplit rocks for streamers. It's like your streaming sidekick - simple, full of cool stuff, and very stable. XSplit is super user-friendly, it's got many powerful plugins for easy streaming, and it plays nice with lots of platforms. Yeah, it's a bit pricey, but if you're all about streaming, it's money well spent.

    👍 Pros:    Custom plugins|Cross-platform compatibility
    👎 Cons:    Price

    I posted this yesterday on the tvheadend.org board, but it's silent so far. I thought I'd try here:. Source: 10 months ago
  • MythTV 33 Released – open-source All-in-one DVR
    Fwiw, Xbox One Digital TV Tuners and some RTL-SDRs (with an extra decoder chip) are able to pick up DVB-T2 and are usually £10~20 on eBay. https://tvheadend.org/ can be useful for interfacing with the tuners over USB and exposing web streams. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago
  • DVR/Live TV in the UK?
    If your USB tuner works with Linux, you can use it with TVHeadend, and connect it to Jellyfin via the official plugin. I use it here and it works fairly well. Source: over 1 year ago
  • Getting freeview TV live via internet directly
    They're expensive for what they are, though. If you're techy minded you can make your own using something like a Raspberry Pi, some USB TV tuners and TVHeadend. Source: over 1 year ago
  • Self-hosted solution like HDHomeRun
    TVheadend (or the convenient linuxserver docker container). Source: over 1 year ago
