Conectar Odyssey para Home DVR

What Home DVR requires

Home DVR is a separate recording service that Odyssey connects to. It needs a supported host, writable recording storage, an authorised source and a trusted network connection. Installing the desktop companion does not by itself start a configured recording service.

Home DVR is available in the app version covered here. Cloud DVR, local Live Rewind and Catch Up are unavailable in this version.

Odyssey supplies no media. You must have permission to access, record and, if you use sharing, share the source concerned. Recording and sharing are separate permissions.

Prepara el servicio primero

Utilice el Odyssey downloads page and the installation instructions for your host platform. Keep the host powered, connected and available when recordings are scheduled. Confirm that the selected storage has enough free space and remains accessible to the service.

For the Mac companion, Establecimientos... opens the configuration window. It includes Instalación de la Folla, Recopilación de la grabación (primer instalar), Trusted HTTPS origin (existing TLS proxy), Install DVR, TLS / Account, Start DVR y Refrigerar el estado.

Install DVR leaves the service stopped. TLS / Account provides certificate validation, account approval and DVR-login setup; those are prerequisites for connecting the player, not optional decoration. Follow the companion’s actual setup result before starting the service. A signed Mac installer being able to open is not proof that your server, storage and source configuration have passed a recording test.

Conoce la dirección del servidor

The app connects to HTTPS. The certificate must be valid, trusted by the client device and cover the address you enter. If the DVR backend listens with HTTP on port 3000, it needs a TLS proxy: enter that proxy’s HTTPS address and port in Odyssey.

Do not enter an HTTP backend address and expect the Trust toggle to disable certificate verification. Trusting an intended server and validating its certificate are separate checks.

A local certificate authority can require explicit trust on each client device. An address that works on the host computer may still be unreachable from the television or an outside network. Check the actual route each client will use.

Verificar el permiso de fuente

A connection can succeed while a source remains unavailable for recording or sharing. The source-permission editor contains Record, Restreamos y Salva las autorizaciones, bajo la autoridad del titular de la cuenta y la política de fuente actual.

The service can report that a source is disabled, unsupported, not configured or changed since its permission was approved. Read that status. Do not assume enabling a local toggle overrides service eligibility or a provider’s conditions.

Finish setup with a short recording of content you are authorised to record. Confirm that it reaches the saved state and plays from Library → Recordings before relying on a longer schedule.

El ejemplo trabajado

An owner runs Home DVR on a Mac and has an HTTPS address that resolves from the Apple TV. They install the service, configure its TLS and account approval, set its DVR login and start it. In Odyssey they enter that HTTPS address, trust the intended server and sign in.

They then verify recording permission for one live source and schedule a short permitted programme. Seeing the programme in Scheduled confirms only that a schedule exists; they also wait for a saved recording and test playback.

Desconectar y resolver problemas

Desconectar removes the app’s current connection through its confirmation flow. Disconnecting the player and stopping the recording host are different actions. Use the companion’s service controls when you intend to stop the service.

If sign-in fails, check the address, certificate, DVR credentials and account approval in that order. For a missing action, check source permission and active profile. See DVR troubleshooting antes de eliminar las configuraciones o los horarios.

Host-specific Linux, Docker and Windows installation steps remain in their supplied installation guides. The Mac companion’s controls differ from the setup tools on other host platforms.
