Any devs working on a Android port of Tvheadend backend?

Yes it is really true.

As I've written, it is 100% working on Android OS, not just Linux.

It is the backend and client on the same RK3288 machine (Tronsmart R28).

I understand you doubting this, but please don't treat people like idiots. I wouldn't have posted if it didn't work.

Perhaps you should try it. The most difficult part is getting your TV stick drivers working correctly.
Linux drivers (.ko) need to be cross compiled for Android. Taki provided a guide to doing this at Freaktab.

There are also links to drivers for many tuners Taki already cross-compiled for android.
I found the "s2liplianin" drivers worked for me.

Some TV tuners require several .ko files to work.......ie; DIB0700 based tuners requires dvb-usb, dvb-core, dvb-usb-dib0700, dib3000, dib7000, dib8000....etc...etc

Edit: I forgot to mention that the original linux firmware files (at least for the IT913x based tuner I used), did not require to be cross-compiled for android. I'm not sure if that is going to be the case for all tuners requiring a firmware file (.fw).
