Great piece of software
I’ve been using Channels almost every day for years. This app has allowed me to get rid of two cable boxes, saving almost $30 a month. Admittedly the setup can be complex, but I am experienced in software. The main features DVR, pausing and rewinding live tv, and being a media server serve all my non streaming media needs. Plus in the years of using it, I have only encountered a couple of bugs. This company should advertise this app more. Everyone always talks about Plex and Kodi. I know they are not 100% equivalent, but they share the same space.

Love it
Everything is great except that I’m paying for this and my PiP is blocked by you guys having a “Rate our App” popup over the picture. Hopefully this goes away now…
