[08:19:23] tmiw: hi all. so I managed to get Kodi's MythTV plugin to run on my 4th gen Apple TV. unfortunately the Apple TV doesn't seem to be optimized to handle MPEG2 (which is what my HDHomeRun tuner gives my backend), so anything HD doesn't play well to say the least until I trigger a transcoding job to mpeg4 using mythweb.
[08:19:43] tmiw: any way to have MythTV transcode live TV to mpeg4 before sending it out to frontends?

[12:10:17] mack-: tmiw: I don't know of a way to do trascode live TV as it's playing in mythtv. My first thought would be using something like a plex or other on-the-fly transcoding server to present your AppleTV your live TV choice.
[12:11:14] mack-: or use one of tuners that output h264 streams.

[16:07:52] tmiw: mack-: hmm, looks like SiliconDust does have h264 devices. however, I'm also not tied to using an Apple TV, so if I'm going to be buying additional hardware anyway...

[16:33:59] mack-: tmiw: I have been seeing people complaining about little things here about HDHomerun devices lately. I know my old one started recording badly when I upgraded to v29. I got a Hauppauge quad pcie tuner (but just dumps mpeg2 streams also) to augment my setup and set my HDHR to lower priority.
[16:36:20] mack-: I was happy with MrMC's mpeg2 performance on my appletv4 in the bedroom before I switched to an amazon firetv cube. It was fine on the Cube for many months, then a software update slowed mpeg2 playback. Another recent upgrade seems to have fixed it, though. I haven't tried the ATV4 lately.
[16:37:36] mack-: (MrMC was out before kodi itself could easily be installed, so that's what I went with)

[17:58:45] tmiw: Windows Media Center is all*
[17:59:37] tmiw: on another note, h264 transcodes with mythtranscode apparently are bigger than the original mpeg2 files. at least with default settings

[21:13:13] tmiw: if nothing else, I'll get the benefit of a port of Kodi being updated more often. I'm not sure Kodi on the Apple TV has been updated since last year based on the timestamps at the download site
