hey I am trying to setup ServerWMC on my Win7 computer that has a Ceton 4 tuner USB.

I have set up the server and it runs

Then I installed the PVR software in Kodi on the same computer for testing
It works. I can change stations and watch live TV.

Next is my Android TV Box.. I have a fresh install of Kodi and I installed the PVR Client.

I put in the IP address of my Win7 Computer and I get nothing

Then I went and turned Windows Firewall off completely both public and private.

I go into channels and channels Populate with listings

I press on a channel to watch it and I get the waiting circle and nothing happens.

WHILE NOTHING IS HAPPENING...
on my windows computer I go to the status page for ServerWMC and I can see that
one of the tuners has changed to the station that I want to watch
It also says that it is streaming that channel out to Kodi Localhost.. which I guess is my android box

I never get the video on the android box

I have tried Copyfree channels that should play

I can open chrome on the Android Box and browse to the Status Page on the Windows 7 computer to see that ServerWMC is working and waiting and I have 4 open tuners...



Thing is I don't have my RecordedTV directory shared..

I don't really want to do this.. and I don't want to watch Recorded TV .. I have all of it being processed by MCEBuddy and being fed to an external drive and my RecordedTV directory never has any content in it .. or at least not for very long until it is moved to the other drive automatically...


So I am close.. I can browse to the Server Status Page from the Android Box

The TV Listings fully populate and I can see the channel listings

I just can't get it to play video

This is a new android 6 box that is in the kodi hardware list and it does not flinch at any of my recorded videos in any format.

Is that Windows share required to play Live TV or just the Recorded Files?

thanks
