hmm, does XBMC's PVR API currently already support PVR Addons written in Python Script yet or?

If it is a only a C API now then it needs to be expanded first to also support Python PVR Addons?

I use the STRM files like one normally would. I used some STRM perl or python generator a while back, and it make the files.

I would like to personally (myself, not as a part of Team XBMC) try and set up some crowd source fundraising and find people who would like to work on the needed scripts. Silicon Dust has already given us all the tools we need, and we could realistically see this in the near future

can we access HDhometun prime over the internet remotely, if the upload speed is high?


in other words can we access HDhomerun prime on the go in IOS/Android devices?


thanks in advance.

i've heard good things about this . depending on your up stream and VPN it shouldnt be an issue.

I've tried using the "HDHomerun Stream Builder" (on Windows) but it seems to be assuming the presence and/or availability of something called "MC2XML" and the one and only link I found to that lead me to a dead end (and an Apache "Internal Server Errior"), so I don't know where to obtain that thing.

I also tried using a Perl script called hdhr-mkchan.pl, but that seems to be only for UNIX systems (e.g. it uses the "which" command, which does not exist on Windows, as far as I know), however that seems to assume the presence and/or availability of an executable called "hdhomerun_config" on the host UNIX system. I do have such an executable on my Windows system, but I have no idea where to obtain a binary of hdhomerun_config that will run on a UNIX system.

Any help would be appreciated.

I'd even be glad to just generate the .strm files by hand, if somebody would just be kind enough to describe for me the proper procedure for doing that.

Is there a way to generate stream files that will automatically select the tuner that is not in use? For example, we may be watching one channel on ont TV, but want to tune in to another on another TV. As far as I can see from the searches I have found, the tuner number must be part of the stream url.

The new units can automatically handle tuner allocation is you use UPnP or HTTP based urls. We no longer need to include specific tuners in the URL. UPnP doesn't even need STRM files and will automatically update channels and everything in Kodi.
