Watch TV ANYWHERE in your house using IPTV via a RASPBERRY PI and TVHEADEND

When I moved into my house, I found the TV aerial on the roof was old and didn't work properly. Rather than get that replaced, I got satellite TV instead. However, this is difficult to feed to all the rooms in the house that have a TV.

To solve this, I've set up IPTV so that a Raspberry PI runs software called TVHeadend. This works alongside a TV tuner to grab the TV signals and then make those available across my home network.

I then use the Tivimate and/or Dream Player for TVHeadend app on my Android TV or FireTV stick to allow TV to be viewed in any room. I'm using a second PI4 running AndroidTV that I put together in this project:    • Run ANDROID TV on a RASPBERRY PI to make A...  

Since I'm using a TV tuner that has four embedded tuners, four devices can be watching or recording different TV stations at any given moment in time.
