Hi,
Anyone here channeling Astro Beyond HD through their Open Elec?
Looking to set that up, and first advice needed:-
Which TV Tuner Card to buy that supports HD and works out of the box with Open Elec?

QUOTE(AVFAN @ May 29 2015, 10:54 AM) curious.... why these non-kodi questions keep popping up in this kodi thread?  Assuming you know that OpenElec is an operating system developed based on Kodi right? "OpenELEC provides a complete media center software suite that comes with a pre-configured version of Kodi and third-party addons with retro video game console emulators and DVR plugins. OpenELEC is an extremely small and very fast booting Linux based distribution, primarily designed to be booted from flash memory card such as CompactFlash or a solid-state drive, similar to that of the XBMCbuntu (formerly XBMC Live) distribution but specifically targeted to a minimum set-top box hardware setup based on an ARM SoCs or Intel x86 processor and graphics." - Wikipedia

QUOTE(alucard89 @ May 29 2015, 03:52 PM) Check out the wiki, there's a complete list for the tuners http://wiki.openelec.tv/index.php/Supported_TV_TunersI'm actually quite interested in this, has anyone successfully tried using TV tuner with Astro Beyond and manage to display the channels on Kodi? Yeah I saw that list. Just thought of getting recommendation from users here who have successfully set up before on which model will they recommend. I have seen the video on Youtube. Astro Beyond HD on Kodi can be done. Need the TV Tuner and the Stripper to remove the HDCP.
