@tomspark Can we get Tunarr added to the list of apps? I see that ErsatzTV is listed but if I'm being honest I find Tunarr to be far more stable and reliable.

Glad to see I’m not the only one requesting it.

Good callout, AvantMagus -- ErsatzTV is what we bundle today, but you're not the only one who's found Tunarr nicer to run. I don't get to just flip on a new app myself, so I've flagged this for Tom to weigh -- Tunarr vs ErsatzTV as an option or swap. No promises on timing, but it's on his list now. Thanks for the suggestion!

Hey popuman -- appreciate the +1, that kind of thing genuinely helps. Tunarr vs ErsatzTV is already flagged for Tom from AvantMagus's post, and now there's two of you asking for it, so I've made sure that's noted. No promises on timing since that's his call, but it's a stronger signal now.

+1 for tunarr.

Good news, DocSenna — no need to keep waiting on this one. Tunarr actually shipped in v1.6.553 as a first-class SparkBox app, so it's live on the app shelf now (this very thread is what got it added). It's off by default because a live channel re-encodes around the clock — same reasoning as ErsatzTV — so it's happiest on a box with hardware transcoding. To turn it on: run sudo sparkbox upgrade to pick up the new release, then sparkbox enable tunarr, then sparkbox up. It'll appear with its own setup guide. Holler if anything trips you up while building channels.
