How not to pay the local telecom company for cable TV? What software can be used to watch TV on a Linux system?

Question

linux

I have a Raspberry Pi board, how to make a replacement for cable TV from it?

Raspbeery has a tulip - video output, there is an audio output - 3.5mm

You will also need to sign in:

It's good that the Pi has an Ethernet 100mbit / s port - but no WiFi - but you can buy a Wifi USB adapter

The question is - what software can be used? - How can I watch TV on a Linux system? P.S. - I don’t want to pay a local telecommunications company, let it be 220 rubles, it’s also not superfluous, I’d rather buy a vps on oceandigital with this money

Answer 1

Will have to tinker! ;))))
As a last resort, I will have to look for video streams of TV channels, those that I need - learn c ++, stay up many nights and code!!!
PS Thanks @zmeyjr for the tip

Answer 2

VLC (if you find a list of channels of interest) or just plug in a TV tuner and connect an antenna?

Answer 3

global.parom.tv/ru/linux - only xs regarding raspberries.

Answer 4

There is torrent-tv.ru
Watch through their own software.
For convenience, you can do it through XBMC, but this is already paid.
