Live TV

Overview of Setup

Setup of Live TV can be broken down into a few steps:

• Configure your TV Tuner(s) or M3U based IPTV sources
• Add TV Guide Data Source(s)
• Match your channels to Guide Data

Configure Your TV Tuner

Out of the box, Emby Server currently supports the following TV Tuners:

• HDHomerun Network Tuner (Models available for both OTA and Cable)
• Hauppauge TV Tuners (on Emby Server for Windows)
• M3U files (or urls). See examples of m3u files at http://xmtvplayer.com/build-m3u-file

Support for additional tuners can be added by installing a Live TV Plugin.

In most cases, Emby Server will automatically discover your HDHomerun on your network with no configuration required. You can manually add a tuner as well. Simply open the server dashboard, navigate to Live TV, then click Add underneath tuner devices.

Add a TV Guide Data Source

Out of the box, Emby Server currently supports the following TV Guide data sources:

• Emby Guide Data (United States, Canada and United Kingdom)
• Schedules Direct
• Xml TV

Support for additional sources can be added by installing a Live TV Plugin.
