I am running Kodi 15 (Isrengard) with the default Confluence skin. Settings \ TV (General Tab) shows that it is enabled. Settings \ Add-ons \ My add-ons \ PVR Clients shows that Windows Media Center Client - linux x86_64 Edition is Enabled. Looking at the configuration of the WMC client, it sees the proper hostname IP address (of the Win7 pc hosting Windows Media Server) and port number. ServerWMC is running on the Win7 pc hosting Windows Media Server. When I go to the console of the Win7 pc hosting Windows Media Server, it sees my tuner setup and recognizes all channels that I expect it to see.

Stupid Question - Shouldn't there be a Main Menu item (e.g. Weather, Pictures, Videos, Movies, TV Shows, Music, Programs, System) for Live TV or something similar?

UPDATE: after reading another thread which mentioned needing a reboot, I rebooted the Kodi Linux box. On reboot, it gives the error, "Add-on couldn't be loaded. Check the log for more information about this message." When I dismiss that message, another error pops up: "No PVR add-on enabled. The PVR manager as been enabled without any enabled PVR add-on. Enable at least one add-on in order to use the PVR functionality."

And when I check my WMC PVR add-on, sureasheck, it's been disabled. But the funny thing is, it was enabled before the reboot. And even when I enable it now, it doesn't add a new "Live TV" menu item to the main menu.

You'll need to get a debug log from Kodi to see why the addon isn't loading. It sounds like it's not the correct/compatible version - How did you install the addon? Was this box a clean Kodi 15 install or was it upgraded from 14?

My latest log is here: http://pastebin.com/eM7rfDW0

I upgraded from Kodi 14.x to 15.0 by following the instructions here: http://kodi.wiki/view/HOW-TO:Install_Kodi_for_Linux

1. Open Terminal in Linux
2. Issue these commands:
sudo apt-get install software-properties-common
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:team-xbmc/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install kodi

I did not uninstall Kodi 14.x before doing the above.

FYI... my Windows Media Center Client - .inux x86_64 Edition add-on is version 0.2.99. I can enable it (from the add-on screen with no error message given), but as soon as I leave it's configuration screen, it becomes disabled, apparently. Thus, if I enable it (I think), then go enable TV in Settings, it gives me a warning that no PVR is enabled - and sureasheck if I go back and look at my WMC add-on, it's disabled.

On Linux I believe the pvr addons are separate to Kodi so you need to do an apt get command to update Kodi pvr addons

I think the command to install the addon is something like this: sudo apt-get install kodi-pvr-wmc

The pvr add-ons are not included with the kodi package starting with v15.
