Ignorant question

Paul_G · 2023-07-25, 05:23 AM

After using various PVRs I'm now going to move to a PC solution. (Free to air, Australia). I inherited an old media PC that originally had Windows 7 on it. I'm going to install Linux on it. The purpose is to record terrestrial TV and then play back those files. Is the only software I need NextPVR? Also, does NextPVR allow me to upload and then play MKV or MP4 files?

Thanks, Paul.

You can import mkv and mp4 files as recordings with NextTool assuming they are names correctly or you use NFO files.

UI client also play many media types.
