    Well thats weird, plugged a sat feed into an androidTV to see if it's inbuilt sat support is any good, (Only sat comes in where the tv is) it seems to have mapped the channels to the freeview EPG.

    When we got rid of Sky I got a HDHomerun Freeview Tuner that could stream to Amazon Firesticks to wean co-occupants off live TV. It worked, & when the Pi broke a few weeks ago I didn't fix it. No one has complained. Can anyone think of a compelling reason *not* to sell it?

    @FreeviewAdvice quick question folks. Just bought a new TV and the Freeview Play app is installed. I honestly don't know if this is an on demand service or a live broadcast service (or both?) I have no TV aerial, nor TV licence as I haven't watched live broadcast TV for years.
