PlayTVH for TVHeadend
Live TV, guide & recordings
$1.99
Your channels. Your recordings. Your TVHeadend. Watch live, plan your next show, or take finished recordings offline on iPhone and iPad. Own server required.
Make more of the TVHeadend you already run. PlayTVH brings your live channels, program guide and recordings together on iPhone and iPad. Requires your own TVHeadend server; no channels or TV subscriptions are included.
FIND YOUR NEXT SHOW
See what's on now and coming up next. Browse channel logos, keep favorites close, and search the guide for something worth watching.
PLAN IT. RECORD IT. ENJOY IT.
Schedule a single program or set up a series recording from the guide. Keep upcoming, completed and failed recordings organized in your DVR library, then watch the recordings stored on your server.
TAKE YOUR RECORDINGS WITH YOU
Download completed recordings to your iPhone or iPad before you leave. Open Downloads and watch without a connection to your server. Pick up where you stopped, and choose whether watched downloads are removed automatically.
MADE FOR YOUR SETUP
Connect to multiple TVHeadend servers and discover servers on your local network. Choose separate stream profiles for Wi-Fi and cellular connections. Send compatible streams to Chromecast, or use AirPlay for recordings. Receiver and stream compatibility apply.
A SIMPLE PURCHASE
One-time purchase. No PlayTVH subscription, in-app purchases or added ads. No PlayTVH cloud account.
BEFORE YOU START
You need a reachable TVHeadend server, configured channels and a server user with streaming access; recording features also require DVR access. Live TV and recording management need a network connection to your server. Access away from home requires your own secure remote setup. Offline viewing is for completed recordings downloaded to your device.

Ready for iPhone Duo. PlayTVH now adapts as you fold, unfold and rotate, and playback keeps going without restarting. Stand iPhone Duo half open and the player shows video on one half and controls or your channel list on the other. Also: content stays clear of the camera and status bar on every side, the guide keeps your place when the screen size changes, and iPad layouts adapt more smoothly to window size.
