Alaska Live TV discussion

freigeist · 2010-10-24 10:33

I have already searched this forum but can not find any information how to enable Live TV Support in Alaska (if it is possible at all). I'm using the latest pvr-testing, any advice how to get support for the live tv in this awesome skin?

Seeing as I don't have any PVR equipment it's unlikely.

Bad news...if I add pvr support to your skin, is it likely you will include it in your repository?

Hitcher · 2010-10-24 17:56

Probably not because I couldn't test it and/or maintain it.

Is there anything that could convince you to bring us pvr support? Maybe you need a DVB USB Stick?

send hitcher a tuner that may work haha

If this will help, I will do it (or better: send him the money he needs for buying a simple one).

@freigeist: so we are two.

Alaska -a very good skin - is only a half skin with the next version of xbmc if pvr support is not builded in...

Hitcher I will buy you a USB tuner or a PCI tuner.. let me know if you'd like...

Or I can get you a NewEgg giftcard so you can buy your own!

it's the least I can do for someone who's made my life a LOT easier! you have a lot of happpy people on this forum and we'd LOVE to see this feature (along with the "play random episode" feature .. *nudge nudge*) In all seriousness though let me know because I have some extra cash (having a good month) and would love to see alaska with some Live TV support!

Thanks a bunch.
