    This program is a client for the very solid Tvheadend TV streaming server. Tvheadend supports pretty much any source you can think of, but is a little more complicated to setup.

    Tvheadend is a selfhosted service meant to be run on your own server with your own TV dongles / IPTV channels / etc.

    If you only want to watch TV on your PC, doing so with something like Kodi is probably a better idea, as Kodi also supports USB tuners and is simpler to setup (doesn’t require a separate server).
