A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

Are they any self hosted dvr programs? I have a cable set-top box that I would like to record programs while I'm away. Yes I can pay to enable the dvr functionality from my cable provider but I'm cheap and would like my shows available to any computer in the house and not just the one hooked up to set-top device. Do I need specific hardware like a TV tuner card to integrate into my pc? All I see is all in one systems being sold for OTA channels of which I have none available where I am. Would be a bonus if it worked with jellyfin. Is anybody still doing this stuff or has everyone just moved on to the arr stack?

I have an HDHomerun tuner, it's 2 channels for $120. I paid for plexpass and use that DVR, but the HDHR is platform agnostic.

This. Jellyfin has a direct HDHR integration and works as a DVR directly with one.

I wish it used the built in guide

You can even get them used if you are willing to wait. I paid $80
