Hey everyone,

I've created a plugin for watching Freeview FV streams using Kodi:



This means you can watch every ABC, SBS, Seven and Ten channel live. Sadly the Freeview FV app is missing streaming support for Nine's channels.

Here's a screenshot of a list of channels from my local area.

I did this because I live in rural Tasmania and don't get any TV reception. I do have a good NBN connection though. I downloaded the Freeview FV app on an Android device and was able to watch free-to-air shows but couldn't get them on my TV. I looked at my network log and found what streams the app was using then put together a plugin to watch those streams on a Kodi laptop.

These streams are not great quality but I'm happy since they're at least fairly complete.

thankyou we have terrible FTA reception here and I dont qualify for VAST, will give this a go!

A note:-
Ten, Eleven and One only stream during certain times
They only seem to stream the evening programs and no live sports, but the latter is consistent with the other channels' streams.
