I don't know how to use it either. @schumi2004 reported it works correctly so I think it does :)
Yeah, the funny thing is the descriptive text says its so easy to use - but no tuners show up or anything.
Well, it has a decent web interface. I think that's enough for such a software to be considered as "easy to use"
It looks interesting and in fact I believe is easy to use, but it is not working or at least not working properly. Tried two different tv usb sticks and three different browsers. Still haven't found out where the file with xml tv should be placed because the default locations don't seem to bring any positive results. Maybe @schumi2004 has different DS model with different processor? and the package works fine for him while doesn't for the others?
I own a DS211 in combination with a Sundtek Pro stick and Smargo cardreader
Tvheadend from package and oscam manual compiled.
Diaoul the problem is it DOESN'T WORK. Calling it "easy to use" doesn't mean much when it doesn't work (unless of course the user needs to follow a complicated procedure to get it to work, in which case it isn't easy)
Well, i packaged it as some users wanted this package. The description is from Tvheadend website.
Sorry you can't get to configure it. It is not said easy to configure, I think once you've configured it it is easy to use :) I'll try to add some other packages as requirement like oscam. Maybe it'll make your configuration part easier.
@Beckman the package does work.
The software itself is indeed easy to use but configuring is for advanced users who already played with IP/Live TV before. Diaoul never said it was easy to configure neither did I. It's not a out-of-the-box package that you can install and voila have Live TV.
@Diaoul Diaoul I'm sure I could configure it if it could recognize any of my 3 different tuners. So now there is just a webinterface which doesn't do anything.
@schumi2004 Well I don't think it works. If it doesn't find tuners and you have to be a linux expert to get it to do that, I don't think it really belonges in a consumer repository.
@Beckman you don't have to be a linux expert imo.
I have said this in other ticket , before i could recognize my stick i first needed to install drivers for it (same as for Windows) so check if sticks support Linux and if your DS recognize it. Best location to check for is /dev/dvb/adapter0
You could also try different usb ports
How would I check if the stick supports linux? As for DS recognizing it, the "System Information" program lists it in the USB port as "RTL2832U"
That looks good. When i wanted current setup i specially searched for a synology compatible device and for me that was a sundtek.
Can't find any info for your stick in combination with Synology, maybe do some research if it even works?
I don't have any stick so I can't tell why tvheadend stays awake after pressing "stop". I think this issue is more tvheadend related so report to tvheadend directly.
I could not reproduce this.
I double checked it again here if any process stays alive after stoping from dsm but couldn't find anything.

@jjLDN What about xmltv? Did you get that configured?
Noticed the same thing today that my process stays alive when stopping TVH, didn't happen before.
Hi. Tried that spk yestarday. I have some issues though. I don't know how to use it. I cannot choose any grabber in xml tv. The window disappears immediately. I cannot choose any tv card even though I have two different devices an both recognizable by DSM. In IPTV section I cannot add any proper tv stream from internet. Whenever I tried to stop the package I cannot turn it on back again. It appears to be hanging in ram and not closing properly. So basically I don't know what is the purpose of this package. I use DS712+ on DSM 4.0-2228.
