As someone who has installed MythTV, MediaPortal, TVHeadhead, SageTV and WMC over the years I just have to say thanks to sub for how amazingly easy NextPVR is to setup for new users and skilled users alike. I made this video today installing from scratch I had a full system configured and up and running in under two minutes https://youtu.be/lYuG6670bMo Add a minute to enter a zip or postal code if you are a brand new Schedules Direct user.
Just as amazing that server software could have been first been installed in Windows, Linux or in Docker on a NAS with a download and/or a one line command and just a little bit more work on a Mac.
Admittedly getting a stable PVR client running smoothly can take a little longer, but sub does offer Android and Apple clients from their App stores and the UI client functionality which runs on Windows, Roku and soon Android and make installing a good client as easy as installing the server. Just a month or so ago sub had to decide between dropping UI Client or doing a lot of work for future compatibility with netcore 6.0. Fortunately for me and several others he choose the hard approach and a double thanks for keeping UI client alive. This work had the unfortunate side effect of making NextPVR.exe a little less stable but as usual sub worked quickly to resolve those issues.
Thanks sub for the years of work you have devoted to this wonderful project.
