===== Installing =====

===== Getting up TVheadend =====
==== TV Streaming ====
  * Build and install a recent version of media-tv/tvheadend (3.9 seems to work). It needs to have the SATIP and upnp commits included. This is included in ''packages.sihnon.net''
  * Start the tvheadend service ''systemctl start tvheadend''
  * Browse to ''Configuration->DVB Inputs->TV Adapters''. If the right version is installed, it should automatically detect the SAT>IP device via uPnP.
  * Switch to the ''Networks'' tab and click ''Add''
  * Choose ''DVB-S'', tick ''Network Discovery'', ''Skip Initial Scan''. From ''Pre-defined Muxes'' choose ''28.2E:Astra'' for UK Freesat. Don't forget to click the ''Save'' button on each tuner!
  * Switch back to the ''TV Adapters'' tab and for each tuner that has a LNB connection, select Position #1 (AA) and tick Enabled, and choose the Freesat network defined earlier. Also select the Tuner itself (parent of Position #1) and enable that.
  * Switch to the ''Muxes'' tab and click ''Add''
  * Choose the Freesat network created earlier, select ''Delivery System'' to ''DVBS2'' for Freesat HD. Select ''EPG Scan'' to ''Force UK Freesat'' and accept all other defaults.
  * Wait a few minutes and channels should start appearing in the ''Services'' tab. Filter on ''Encrypted=no'' to hide the unwatchable entries.
  * Select the channels that should be exposed to XBMC and click ''Map Selected''. Tick ''Check Availability'', ''Merfe Same Name'' and ''Create provider tags'', then map them. This will take a while. Keep an eye on journalctl to see progress.

===== Setting up XBMC =====
  * Build and install a copy of ''xbmc-addon-pvr''
    * Set ''EGIT_BRANCH="frodo"'' because the current version is causing memory corruption
    * For ''simple-iptv-pvr'' support add ''--enable-addons-with-dependencies'' (we'll be using tvheadend so no need for this).
  * Restart XBMC to pick up the new plugins
  * Disable all ''PVR Client'' addons except ''tvheadend''
  * Configure the tvheadend client to set the hostname/username/password etc.
  * Browse to ''System->Live TV'', set ''Enabled''
