I would recommend as a additional source of distributing the TV signal around the house.

Great product except for the Ariel adapter keeps coming off if the pi is moved.

What can I say about a product that does exactly what it says it should? As a basic tv streaming card this is brilliant, however for streaming via Plex I do recommend using a powerful board.

The hardware aspect of the TV Hat was very easy to attach to my Pi. It has taken me about a week to get the software (TV Head End) to pick up all the channels from my local transmitter, but I've learned stuff along the way about Digital TV and Raspbian.

Decided to purchase one of these to use with a pi zero w that I had sitting around unused. Unfortunately I had forgotten that this older version of the pi zero does not have a soldered header, but The Pi Hut came up trumps with the GPIO Hammer Header (Solderless). The Hat is very easy to get working with the instructions from this web site. I now have UK digital TV + PVR in all rooms in the house on Android devices using apps TVHClient and VLC. Awesome :-)

Perfectly works with Pi 3 and Zero W, but I need a good instruction how to use hardware H 264 transcoding with Tvheadend to be able to view TV over Internet. I successfully did HW transcoding with standalone gstreamer and ffmpeg, but it didn’t work with Tvheadend. Really hope that Raspberry gurus publish this solution soon.

Great piece of kit used along with LibreElec gives really impressive quality digital TV I used the guide to install tvheadend and after confusing myself between PVR client and PVR server I got it working I am using a pi 2 just because I have one although I have a pi 3b + and originally set it up on that but I found the picture stuttering quite bad so I decided to install it on my pi 2 as a media center have to thank the pi hut for speedy delivery great stuff would recommend it as first class Robin Dow.
