Although I've more or less abandoned my HTPC for watching films after moving to 4K last year, I still use it everyday for music and occasionally Live TV. Up until last year I had been using JRiver's Media Center as a front end client. It's excellent for music but has always been a little clunky overall and stopped working for TV altogether some time ago. For those not familiar, JRiver is a paid solution and also charges for major version updates. I'm a few versions behind so I previewed the latest version and still could not get Live TV to work. With that I have returned to using Kodi and the Media Portal PVR backend. It works but is super slow loading channels sometimes.
All that to ask, who's using Kodi and what would you recommend as a replacement PVR backend?
