Are they any self hosted dvr programs? I have a cable set-top box that I would like to record programs while I’m away. Yes I can pay to enable the dvr functionality from my cable provider but I’m cheap and would like my shows available to any computer in the house and not just the one hooked up to set-top device. Do I need specific hardware like a TV tuner card to integrate into my pc? All I see is all in one systems being sold for OTA channels of which I have none available where I am.
Would be a bonus if it worked with jellyfin.
Is anybody still doing this stuff or has everyone just moved on to the arr stack?
Man that brings back memories. MythTV was my first venture into Linux-based systems. I got a PCI HDTV tuner card, took over my parents garage, and built a little box to make a PVR. What a fun project. I bet MythTV is a LOT easier now!
Currently, I have a silicondust tuner and run Plex in docker. Works great for my needs. I think it works with jellyfin too if you prefer that route.
Mine too. A friend of mine set up a myth box in a shared house at uni, and I was enthralled by the entire concept of just building your own tech to do cool shit.
