Sorry for the late reply,

I think it may be possible (please someone correct me) that you are one of
the first people to try getting this to work.

But basically you need to activate the livepause plugin,
plugin.activate('tv.livepause')

and then add the hdhomerun to your video groups
TV_VIDEO_GROUPS = [
     # Use this group for watching tv
     VideoGroup(vdev='<homerunid>:<tuner>',
                group_type='hdhomerun',
                desc='Watching Video Group')]

where <homerunid> is the id that you would pass to hdhomerun_config to
control your box and tuner is the tuner number to control.

Then you'll need to configure TV_CHANNELS

TV_CHANNELS = [('<xmltv id>','<display name>','<channel.program>'),
               ...
              ]

Where <xmltv id> is the id in the xmltv file you've grabbed, <display
name> will be displayed by freevo in the guide and <channel.program> is
the usual US syntax for specifying a station ie 48.1

The reason the documentation is a bit sparse is as I say you may be the
first to try it and I don't live in the US so can't give you exact
details.
If you do find some issue please do report them it.

Cheers

Adam
