TvhClient is an open source app that will enable your iPhone or iPad to easily perform your TVHeadend common daily tasks and allow you to watch your channels on your device (experimental).
** For support (or crashes!) contact me at [email protected], @zipleen on twitter, github or irc.freenode.
TvhClient allows you to remotely control the TVHeadend server - a DVB receiver, DVR and streaming server.
The app relies on real-time data it retrieves from the TVHeadend server allowing you to accomplish several tasks, including:
* view the channels streaming video in-app or launch a third party video application,
* video play (experimental) transcoded stream,
* list channels,
* view channels EPGs,
* search by program title,
* start or schedule recordings (DVR),
* check alternative times for any show scheduled,
* view the log / status of the server.
Supported Tvheadend versions: 3.2 and up.
Transcoding is not yet supported in latest tvheadend 4.x versions.
The app supports sending video stream url directly to: VLC, Oplayer, Buzz Player, GoodPlayer, Ace Player, nPlayer and remotely to Kodi (TvhClient does not support passwords in webinterface!) or Chromecast (only with transcoding). If you know other apps that work well with TVHeadend and want them added, contact me via e-mail.
