TVHeadend - I tried it years ago and didn't like the lack of any proper interface, I don't know much about it these days or how it has evolvedĮmby - reviews seem to imply its not as good as PLEX and although it supports Live TV it seems limited compared to NextPVR / MediaPortal PLEX - Live TV seems a bit of an afterthought / in beta, we don't have a media library and PLEX seems biased towards people who do NextPVR - looks quite good but not sure about web EPG interface
I would love to hear from people how some of the other media servers match up, I have been looking and here are my findings so far : The development version of MediaPortal (v2) has seemingly been ongoing forever and will still lacks these features as far as I can see. A proper " Series Link" functionality (not "record every time on this channel") so you can record by series number or new episode.A web EPG interface that is not buggy (WebMediaPortal is buggy and seemingly not supported).I am about to replace our server and it seems like an opportunity to look again at what options are out there as there are a couple of features we really miss in MediaPortal : The new backend server will need to support streaming to multiple devices and simultaneous recording and storage of all our TV, it must have a web EPG so we can schedule recordings whilst mobile. We have many frontend devices on multiple different platforms around the house running Kodi or other frontends LibreElec, iOS, PC.
We started with a TiVo in the 90's in the UK for our TV PVR until the service was cancelled and then migrated through Windows MCE (now gone) and switched about 5 years ago to a MediaPortal backend server running on a PC with Kodi frontends around the house. I live in the UK and watch Freeview DVB-T2 live TV and stream from Netflix, Amazon Prime, Spotify.
