Hi guys. I have been working on tvheadend for some time and got it to the point where I think it starts to become useful for others too. Upstream was very helpful and merged a lot of patches already and also helped with the kqueue support. So what is tvheadend and why do you want it? - If you are using XBMC then you really want tvheadend as your DVB backend. This allows you to watch TV and record stuff within XBMC. - If you are using MythTV then you really want to use tvheadend because it's slim and light and still does everything you ever need. Without all the Qt GUI and without a database and without a ton of plugins. The port itself is in a somewhat useable state but there is still quite some work to bring it in a good shape. I still wanted to bring it to the tree to allow other people to jump in and give it a broader testing with other devices and other environments. Known issues: - scanning does not work (at least not for my Dib7000 DVB-T device) - no libav support - no libdvbcsa support - no rc.d script - does not compile on FreeBSD 8.x Patches, feedback and help are always welcome!
