Hi all Smile

I've a google TV box with DVB-T integrated.
I can watch TV but, I can't record / do timeshift
Is it possible with Xbmc to do that ?

I've see on forum, we need to use a backend /Frontend server but I don't know how to configure it.

Thanks for your help !! Angel
I don't believe XBMC runs on googletv (googletv is NOT equivalent to android!).

Things may have changed though.

But even if they have I am not aware of an android PVR backend.
googletv 4.0 is based off Android 4.2+
So does that mean stuff like XBMC can be installed, and stuff from Google Play?

Yep

However, I don't think any of the PVR backends run on Android/Google TV yet.
Hi,
I've installed XBMX for Android and XBMX server Host
But When I enabled PVR addon, I've this message :
Pvr client not started...

I'm sure there is an apk / application for recording pvr directly from DVB-T because in chinese box they can do that

Not that I know of.

Yes, but those apps don't have an XBMC PVR add-on yet so that XBMC can talk to the app.
