Or should i use tvheadends own repo?
Edit: what i mean is if the tvheadend binary is in the repo or do i need to get it from the tvheadend repo.
cheers

Tvheadend is part of the pulse-eight repo, but isn't installed by default (if you use the install-xbmc.sh script).
After the script is finished, a sudo apt-get install tvheadend is enough (assuming you haven't added other tvheadend repo's).

Yep, that's the repo I'm using. It looks like in the latest git builds though, saving the raw transport streams has been disabled. The only problem with that is, they haven't quite gotten AC3 audio working 100%. So half of my recordings have no sound. Nothing is more frustrating than pouring a nice glass of wine and sitting to watch "Once Upon a Time"... only to find it is completely silent. ;-)
MKVtools show there simply is no audio track. After doing some reading on their Redmine tickets, it looks like this is only a problem with MKVs.
The reported bug is about a year old and it doesn't look like there has been any progress. I'm about to start testing out other backends as this is kinda annoying.

Do you mean the TVHeadend site? or Alexander's site? I can't download any files off of his launchpad site. The version that is listed is from May 1st, mine is from March 5th.

Yep, I was able to download the deb archive and manually install that. Works a lot better as most of my recordings now have sound!!!
