Ok. I've learned something.

Thanks for that

I think LibreELEC is sorely lacking in a file browser.

It would make transferring files from a portable drive to an internal storage drive much easier.

Thank you both, Vlouis and emveepee.

Yes, I'll always take any opportunity to learn.

However, I am still confused. All I have installed is the NextPVR addon from the Kodi repo. Do I not need to install the client software?

I will try changing the IP setting and see what happens.

Thanks again

Hi all,

I'm migrating from Kodi on Windows 11 to Libreelec, but I have almost zero experience with Linux.

Been trying to setup a HTPC on x68-64 with a tv tuner but can't find how to get in to install the Nextpvr software. I've managed to install the backend from the repo but all I can do is access the channels from my existing windows HTPC which I'm wanting to replace?

Any help for a bloke with the skills equivalent to a chimpanzee when it comes to linux? If there's a step-by-step tutorial available, directions to it would be great.

Thanks to both Elonesna and Slata for your responses.

Very helpful. I know than I did before.

Hi All,

I've decided to dump Windows and go with Libreelec and I could use some advice on a couple of issues.

So there is an understanding of what I'm working with, these are the system specs.

HP 8200 Elite PC

Core i7-4770 3.4 GHz

16GB DDR3 ram

2TB Seagate Hard Drive (boot drive)

4TB Seagate Hard Drive (Storage drive)

Gigabyte Geforce GT 430 with HDMI

I have IPTV AU and Radio AU as well as the channels 7, 9 and 10 catchup TV addons from the Slyguy repo running with Simple PVR (I haven't installed a tuner card as the house I'm in doesn't have an antenna)

I have ABC iView and SBS catchup TV addons from Aussie addons running

What I would like to do, and what I need help with, is: -

1. to setup an XBOX One wireless controller with a Microsoft USB receiver setup so I can use IAGL with the Kodi provided emulators.

or

to setup Playstation Dual Analog Controllers using a USB port.

My preference would be to use the Xbox controller, but I can be flexible on this.

and;

2. to be able to record tv shows from the guide

Could anyone please point me to a step-by-step tutorial or provide me with some guidance on how to do this?

Thanks in advance.
