• 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

• HDHomerun options help

  Personally I use a Internet Router with 4 DVB-Tuners inside (Fritz!Box 6660 Cable), connect them to a tvheadend (https://tvheadend.org/) instance which is then proxied to plex using a docker image of Antennas (https://github.com/jfarseneau/antennas). If I didn't have that Internet Router, I would probably connect a DVB-Tuner card compatible with tvheadend into a pc and do the same thing. You could probably also... Source: almost 2 years ago

  Here's my setup for reference: HDHomeRun Connect (the ollllld model, replacing with an HDHomeRun Connect 4K soon) backed by a Raspberry Pi 4 running LibreElec and a 6 Tb USB 3 external drive.
