Wife finally approved cutting the cord, so I'm trying to get the house setup for the transition.

I am looking for OTA only, and some timeshifting, but probably no real saving of shows or recordings for long term at all. Mostly just like pausing to go get a drink, or rewind to re-listen to something. I will most likely run this off an XBMCbuntu install, but I am completely clueless as to where to begin on tuners. HDHomerun? Add a tuner to the existing XBMCbuntu? I can only think one xbmc in the house at a time would ever timeshift, but there could possible be more than one watching live tv at any moment.


Advice?

Nextpvr is pretty simple. Check ota channels availability before you commit

Edit. Its windows based. Sorry.

OTA availability seems very good for my zip code, so that's not an issue.

I always recommend tvheadend as the backend software. If you live in Europe, any decent DVB-T tuner will do. If you live in the states I can't recommend anything since I don't know what technology the OTA transmission use over there.
