Tvheadend

<p>TVHeadend, sometimes TVH for short, is a <a href="/facts/Client/server/FSnf27C5">server application</a> that reads video streams from <a href="/facts/LinuxTV/DDGPJHgJ">LinuxTV</a> sources and publishes them as <a href="/facts/Internet/Xw1rVvJU">internet</a> streams. It supports multiple inputs, a <a href="/facts/DVB-T/oLaP9twt">DVB-T</a> <a href="/facts/USB/XcIKWLyg">USB</a> tuner stick and a <a href="/facts/Sat-IP/bYBIG3Sr">Sat>IP</a> tuner for instance, combining them together into a single channel listing. TVH servers are themselves IP signal providers, allowing networks of TVH servers to be combined.
</p><p>TVH is typically used to send video to receiver devices like <a href="/facts/Smart_television/JE3CHk0y">smart televisions</a> and <a href="/facts/Set_top_boxes/hAsUsw67">set top boxes</a> throughout a household network, but is also used to forward signals over long distance links, even between countries. It also includes <a href="/facts/Electronic_program_guide/91vTJyHK">electronic program guide</a> information (if available) and the ability to record programs like a <a href="/facts/Digital_video_recorder/g8V6BsU5">DVR</a>, including the ability to <a href="/facts/Transcode/5GHL1F4B">transcode</a> from <a href="/facts/MPEG2/SpuH5FJu">MPEG2</a> to <a href="/facts/H264/soCzKcmJ">h264</a> and <a href="/facts/H265/6gp7DC1a">h265</a>.
