# The Boring Disclaimers (at the top of the docs for a reason)
|
|
|
|
|
|
fHDHR is a Python service to take various sources of video and make them accessible to client software including, but not limited to:
|
|
|
|
* [Plex](https://www.plex.tv/)
|
|
* [Emby](https://emby.media/)
|
|
* [Jellyfin](https://jellyfin.org/)
|
|
* [Channels](https://getchannels.com/)
|
|
|
|
fHDHR is not directly affiliated with the above client software, and you will receive NO support for this script via their forums.
|
|
|
|
fHDHR is able to connect to clients by emulating a piece of hardware called the [HDHomeRun from SiliconDust](https://www.silicondust.com/). fHDHR is in NO way affiliated with SiliconDust, and is NOT a HDHomeRun device. fHDHR simply uses the API structure used by the authentic HDHomeRun to connect to client DVR solutions.

# History
|
|
|
|
I got the Huappage QuadHD, and the Mohu Sail as a pandemic-project. All was fine working within Plex, but I also have emby setup as a backup to Plex when auth is broken.
|
|
|
|
I thought to myself, "Self, I should look on github for a way to share my tv tuner between the two".
|
|
|
|
That's when I tried both npvrProxy with NextPVR as well as tvhProxy with TVHeadend. I had to tinker with both to get them working, but I started testing which one I liked more.
|
|
|
|
Around this same time, I stumbled upon [locast2plex by tgorgdotcom](https://github.com/tgorgdotcom/locast2plex). I wanted to contribute to that project to get it to a point that I could fork it to work for other video stream sources.
|
|
|
|
The locast2plex code development wasn't going quite fast enough for the feature-creep in my head.
|
|
|
|
I then proceded to create the initial iteration of fHDHR which I originally called "FakeHDHR". I've rewritten the core functionality a few times before landing on the current code structure, which feels 'right'.
|
|
|
|
I've worked really hard to create a structure that simplifies new variants of the core code to work with different 'origin' streams. Combining these works really well with [xTeVe](https://github.com/xteve-project/xTeVe).
|
|
|
|
One of the variants goes as far as scraping a table from a PDF file for creating a channel guide!
|
|
|
|
I can easily create more variants of the project to do other video sources. Paid ones, I could potentially accept donations for, as I don't want to pay to develop for multiple platforms.
