Native TV Support plans?? - iceman89610 - 2012-10-07

Hi Guys,

As a Mediaportal user (and a secret XBMC user Big Grin ) I just wondered, are there any plans to put native TV support into XBMC? This is one feature that I need in my setup and to be honest, at the moment, I'm liking XBMC over Mediaportal.

Thoughts??

So why not your own TV server? Why use someone elses? I mean, for example, as a Mediaportal user, their TV server is flacky at the best of times. Using it will onlt drag down the good name of XBMC. I would have thought you'd be better off designing your own system.

It would take us several more years of development to do that, and we don't only not have the time, we also don't have the man-power to support that. There's way too much hardware to support, and for each OS. From what I can tell, if you use linux then use TVheadend, if you use Windows then use ForTheRecord.
