denpa

Self-hosted Japanese TV recording server that works with just a tuner, no config files.

ServicefreeJP

denpa is a free, self-hosted TV recording server for Japanese broadcast TV that works as soon as a compatible tuner is plugged in, with no configuration files to write. It auto-detects the tuner type, lets scheduling happen from the program guide, auto-skips commercials, and plays live or recorded TV in the browser with subtitles. It's aimed at people in Japan with tuner hardware who want a self-hosted DVR without separately setting up tools like Mirakurun or EDCB.
