As I mainly use Kodi as a Live PVR player, along with access to a few addons, music and films, I noticed a number were also looking for PVR functions as part of Kanzi, kodi voice or the alexa video skill.
I have created a PVR fork from the latest Kanzi master working on Leia 18. This is tried and tested on latest millhouse build of libreelec with TVH PVR client and backend.
There is no obvious intention to merge PVR into Kanzi master which is a shame but this fork then gives users the best of both worlds with an alternative functioning fork if they wish to use PVR functions as part of the alexa voice control.
I have tried to make the setup process as easy as possible but it is not using the current Kanzi deploy method as we need to edit the deployed files. I have re written the readme to reflect the process and also the latest developer console actions.

**UPDATE** 22/12/18 - following this PR into v18 master https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/15093, skill now includes ability to start/stop recordings by channel name or programme. [kodi.py] updated in repo -
Any comments warmly welcomed, any questions may be a little harder as this is just a trial project of mine but happy to share those learnings
