Welcome to the XBMC forum.

Can you confirm the box model? I suspect it needs a USB TV tuner to act as a PVR - if you already have one can you confirm the model as well?

Also, finally more details about the error message please - ideally a debug log.

Click on the "debug log" text I posted above - it's a link to a how to from the Wiki.

Assuming I have the correct TV box, it will play stuff from a local hard drive/memory stick or streamed from the internet, but not act as a PVR without more hardware and a lot of effort.... You need a TV tuner (USB dongle) to input your local TV signal, after which PVR needs to be setup - a backend to decode the signals, and a frontend to show EPG, play TV etc. Take a look here for more details.

No, PVR is just for your local TV signal (antenna, cable, or satellite).

However, depending on your Country there may be an addon available for live TV from the internet - e.g. BBCiplayer for the UK, though these are mostly used for catchup TV. In general you get better reliability and quality for live TV from the local TV signal rather than the internet.
