Anyway is there a way to connect to two different tvheadend services?

If you mean - can you connect one PVR Frontend to two TV Headend backends - then not currently (I think it was possible at one point but isn't now)

However it is possible to connect one TV Headend server to another, and make the channels in one TV Headend server appear as channels in another (which you then connect to your Kodi Frontend) though there are some pitfalls.

I've done this by using the file you can download from your TV Headend source server here :

Code:

http://ip:9981/playlist

This will download a channels.m3u file.

Prior to doing it this way I used MuMuDVB to effectively act as a DVB to IPTV converter rather than TV Headend as a source.

You can import the downloaded channels.m3u file to setup an IPTV Automatic Network in DVB Configuration Networks. However as far as your receiving TV Headend is concerned, the IPTV streams for each channel are all independent of each other, so if you can't receive every channel simultanesously, you will have clashes that TV Headend can't cope with. EPG grabbing on one IPTV channel will tie up a tuner at your remote TV Headend, and when your receiving unit tries to tune an IPTV stream from a different source mux or TP, if TV Headend doesn't have a spare tuner, it will fail.

You can mitigate this by creating individual IPTV Networks using the URLs for each channel that CAN be received at the same time (if they are on the same TP or Mux in the source) and adding a Mux for each channel (disable network discovery for this or you can go mad with 'ghost' channels), or by having a couple more tuners than you think you might need in your pool at the server...

I've done this successfully - but it's not perfect. (It's a bit of a niche requirement - you don't usually want a line-up consisting of both locally and remotely received channels - but there are circumstances where you might...)
