Tvheadend

Cause the pvrusb2 include a hardware decoder, this mean that tvheadend don't check or ask if the tv tuner has an hardware decoder to use it, I would want to participate as a tester to make include the support of hardware tv tuners on tvheadend as it could become a commonly used backend mostly with the arrival of Xbmc 12, a donation link for tv tuners and for money to support the project like on dd-wrt for example may help to get more out of tvheadend in the future, also using willing contributors as testers as they own the a tv tuner not supported may drive tvheadend to a better state, in any case good luck, I find Tvheadend well done and friendly enough, better than MythTV big bloated app for now ...
