Hi guys, really I cannot understand how to watch Live Tv on my Xbmc.
There's any video/thread step by step tutorial that will help me?
This is my setup:
Acer Revo 3610
Windows 8.1 pro
Xbmc 13 Gotham
What do I have to do? I have tried to install first NextPVR but I couldn't even see live tv there.
Please give me a hand!!!
Thanks

Do you have it working in NextPVR itself? If it's not working there, then it isn't going to work in XBMC either.
In NextPVR, make sure you've scanned for channels, and can watch them via the 'Live TV' menu option. If that's working, then we can progress on to XBMC.

Do you have the needed "TV tuner adaptor to create a video or audio stream" in your PC and have it connected to your sattelite dish / cable outlet / terrestrial antenna?
If yes you need to check if it is working as per sub3's post.

You thought everyone else in the world had antennas or satellite dishes on their roof just for fun?
If you're looking to receieve terrestrial TV (that's called DVB-T) all you need is a cheap USB tuner (they usually cost 10 euros) and a small antenna. Some tuners ship with a small antenna bundled, if you place it near a window the signal is usually good enough.

Any stick using the RTL2832U chip will work.
