I've been looking all over the place for this.
I'd like to play XBMC liveTv addon with the backend running ON THE SAME MACHINE.
What am I missing?
Thanks

you can still stream DVB from any other PVR backend in your home or some IP-TV addon, but AFAIK there is no addon for a Android backend yet (maybe you can get tvheadend running on Android, then you could use that addon, but how to do and if at all, no idea, check the web).

I don't see tvheadend in the android playstore, where do you get it from?

Ahh so you are assuming this box has a linux image available.

Hi All,
I have seen a few comments to pack tvheadend or similar. I also have an android tv box. DVBPlayer works well watching channels but would love a general media manager like XBMC. If anyone has any ideas how to get a backend working without having to use another device like raspberry pi etc would be much appreciated!
