HDHomeRun TVB-T tuner on XBMC, without add-on - Jean-Max - 2011-12-24 Hello, Some screen shots with the brilliant HD tuner HDHomeRun network For a simple consultation of TVB-T SD & HD channels, no need to install XBMC PVR or OPENELEC PVR or a frontal like TvHeadend: Install the networked tuner from a Windows PC: It's creates a C:\User \<your user name>\ HDHomeRun XBMC TV\ folder on the PC Then, From Windows XBMC, just choose this directory as a source of VIDEOS On OPENELEC installed on media player (like ZBOX), just copy this directory over the network on /TV Show/ folder and make this folder as a source Some Screen shots: Networked TVB-T HD SiliconDust HDHomerun Dual DVB-T (HDHR3-DT) XBMC pre-11 Windows on Sony VAIO laptop (W7) Openelec eden fusion 32 on ZBOX AD10 TF1 SD TF1 HD BR from France & Happy new year ! - Ebatte - 2012-01-02 Can you tell us how you configured the icons for the strm files? Thanks - Canadaka - 2012-01-02 Ebatte Wrote:Can you tell us how you configured the icons for the strm files? second that question - xynoe4 - 2012-01-04 I think that if you put a .tbn/.jpeg with the same name as each .strm it should show up as the icon for this stream. - bradn - 2012-02-08 Thanks for this, it's a great alternative for users of OpenELEC who are pulling their hair out trying to get TVHeadEnd to recognize their HDHomerun. I can verify that .tbn of the same name as the .strm files files do provide icons. Question - I have this set up as a source in the Video menu, favorited and with a custom menu item (using Transparency!) for Live TV. This gives me a nice clean folder of icons, but requires me to select a tuner (0 or 1 - on the HDHomerun) before playing the stream. Because of that I can't use the next track button to navigate between channels. When I navigate to the folder of .strm files using the File Manager, I do not have to select the tuner, I can simply click on the .strm file and it plays. I can favorite this view, but then I have a second panel on the right and no option for thumbnails. Is there a way to flatten/stack this so I don't have to choose a tuner from my thumbnail view? The Flatten and Stack options in the view menu do not accomplish this. Thanks!

Second that question - I'd like to set XBMC to default to one tuner or the other - easier/less steps and to make sure the kids use one tuner and I can use the other upstairs. |
