MythTV Player

MythTV Player allows you to browse and play your recordings and videos on your MythTV Backend.

If you plan to use this application, you are required to have a fully functioning MythTV Backend version v0.28+. If you are interested in learning more about MythTV, check their web site at http://mythtv.org.

MythTV Player will natively play HTTP Live Streams transcoded by the MythTV Backend. However, you have the option to launch a recording or video with an external player. We recommend VLC for Android.

The MythTV Services API does not provide a method to watch LiveTV, therefore, this app can't.
