#### TV streaming server supporting DVB, ATSC, IPTV, and SAT>IP

Tvheadend is a TV streaming server and digital video recorder supporting DVB-S, DVB-S2, DVB-C, DVB-C2, DVB-T, DVB-T2, ATSC, IPTV, SAT>IP and other formats. It can also stream and record from HDHomeRun devices.
Once installed use your web browser to navigate to `http://[IP-Address]:9981/` (You can use `127.0.0.1` for the IP Address if your browser and tvheadend are on the same computer.)

Once installed use your web browser to navigate to `http://[IP-Address]:9981/` to set up the server. You can use `127.0.0.1` for the IP Address if your browser and tvheadend are on the same computer, or you can find the TVHeadend icon in your desktop menu.

You can change the listening port and IP with `snapctl set tvheadend tvh-http-port=9981` and `snapctl set tvheadend tvh-ip=0.0.0.0`. You can also change the port for HTSP streaming connections with `snapctl set tvheadend tvh-htsp-port=9982`

OSCam's web interface is listening on port `8888` by default. You can change this by editing the file returned by `tvheadend.oscam-config`. e.g. `sudo $EDITOR $(tvheadend.oscam-config)`. This is an ini-style file where the web interface IP Address and Port are configured as below:

```
 [global]
 serverip =

 [webif]
 httpport =
```

See [the OSCam configuration reference](<http://www.streamboard.tv/wiki/OSCam/en/Config/oscam.conf>) for details on the accepted options for the configuration file.
