Running on a Mac, you have the option of either installing natively, or running via Docker.
Installing natively on Mac
On macOS, NextPVR supports IPTV, HDHomeRun tuners, and SAT>IP tuner (DVB-S, DVB-C, DVB-T).
The latest macOS 64bit files can be downloaded from:
http://nextpvr.com/stable/mac/NPVR.zip
Pre-requesites
You need to have the ASP.NET 8 runtime installed. See "ASP.NET Core Runtime" section of https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download/dotnet/8.0
To watch video in the web app on a mac, you'll also need to have ffmpeg installed on the machine.
To install on macOS
copy binaries to directory an NPVR directory in your home directory.
cd NPVR
dotnet ./NextPVRServer.dll
(some more sophisticated steps for running it on macOS can be found here https://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.ph...#pid598563)
After installing, NextPVR can be accessed using a web browser at http://127.0.0.1:8866/index.html. The default login is admin/password.
A note about browser choice
If you're using Safari, you'll need to enable auto playback of video, otherwise Safari doesn't allow video to start. Safari is doing this because it assumes the video is an advert or other annoying content the user doesn't want auto playing.
