As our Humax 9150T DVRs are exhibiting some funny characterisitics, I thought that I would see what I could do with my Raspberry Pi. At the DLUG computer club the other night, Kodi was suggested as probably the best software for this. https://kodi.wiki/view/HOW-TO:Install_Kodi_on_Raspberry_Pi
Ia getting together the bits. I was going to use my 160GB Sata Hard disk, but I don't have a USB converter for it. I am going to use a 40GB IDE disk with my IDE to USB converter. I have my freecom DVB TV stick if that can be used, and the R-Pi bodel B is available, or maybe the Pi-zeroW. I have a seven port USB hub which may be up to the job - That we will see.
Step one - download the software and get it working.
Initially it wouldn't connect by Ethernet, so I started it on WiFi and it connected. I have updated and upgraded the Raspian Buster system, and now am installing Kodi.
Have attached 40G IDE disk via USB, and restarted R-Pi.
From Kodi Wiki page, I cannot find if I can run Kodi via SSH. It seems to want a big screen and a remote control for all operations.
It's not simple - I can't be bothered.
