List of PVR servers?
#1
I'm looking for a LiveTV/PVR standalone server which supports DVB-C and if possible Dolby 5.1

I want to watch TV on a android set top box.

The VBox Xti 3352 supports DVB-C and the HDHomerun 4DC.
These also look interesting: octopus Net: http://www.digital-devices.eu/shop/de/ne...erk-tuner/
Is there a list of devices in the wiki?
I remember there was a list of TV cards but I do not find the page again.

Suggest a WeTek OpenELEC box with the DVB-C/T/T2 TUNER, this box is an OEM version of WeTek Play with Linux instead of Android OS as default.

They will run a Black Friday sale this Friday.

You can use it as a stand-alone PVR backend server running either OpenELEC or a Enigma2 image or even install Android once you retire it as server.

I have a wetek play already (android), but it is too slowly.
With android it can act as a server also?

The MINIX Amlogic S8xx players works great with the Vbox but not on KODI 15.x where live TV constantly buffers. Problem is fixed with latest MINIX XBMC beta and probably in Jarvis although I've yet to try it.

Yes that is the case with Isengard and TvHeadend 3.9.x too for the very first channel I watch on my S805 - it buffers a lot. Channel changing is pretty quick after that.

I've compiled Jarvis Beta3 and now use TvHeadend server v4.0.7, Client v2.2.9 and all these buffering problems are fixed for TvHeadend. It quite a bit quicker now as well. TvHeadend server v4.0.7 fixed a bunch of issues.

Everything running on a speedy $37 ODROID C1+ with my distro of OpenELEC Smile

It can with third-party image but you will find that it will feel too slow to act as BOTH a frondend media player AND a backend PVR, do don't.

Just choose one function you want to use if you gonna have Android on the WeTek Play.

If you install Linux like OpenELEC on the WeTek Play then will feel fast enough to act as BOTH a frondend media player AND a backend PVR.

I found now the TVButler from dvblogic which looks like an USB stick and can be put into a synology NAS. The NAS then streams the TV.
Kodi in my STB has already a plugin for DVBLink and it works great, picture quality is brilliant, AC3 is supported.
