 +===== Watching live TV from an HDHomeRun =====
 +While there is not a "​normal"​ HDHomeRun view app for linux-based operating systems, Linux users can use third party media software such as VLC to view live TV from HDHomeRun devices. ​
 +
 +See: **[[Third party applications]]**
 +
 +===== DVR storage software =====
 +For installing the DVR storage software on a linux-based operating system, **see: [[DVR:​Linux|Linux DVR]]**.

 +===== Configuration utility =====

 +
 +===== HDHomeRun Config GTK instructions =====
 +
 +  - <​wrapper>​Extract both libhdhomerun and hdhomerun_config_gui to the same directory, e.g.:
 +<​code>​directory/​libhdhomerun
 +directory/​hdhomerun_config_gui</​code></​wrapper>​
 +  - <​wrapper>​From the hdhomerun_config_gui directory, run:
 +<​code>​./​configure
 +make
 +sudo make install</​code></​wrapper>​
 +
 +===== Troubleshooting =====
 +
 +During the ./configure step, if you receive an error about gtk+-2.0 not being installed, you will need to install it using your distribution’s package management system. On most Debian-based distributions,​ including Ubuntu, use the following command:
 +
 +<​code>​sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev</​code>​
 +
 +If you receive an error stating hdhomerun_config_gui:​ error while loading shared libraries: libhdhomerun.so:​ cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory when attempting to run hdhomerun_config_gui,​ run the following:
 +
 +<​code>​sudo ldconfig</​code>​
 +
 +===== HDHomeRun Firmware =====
 +
 +For manual firmware download links, for use with the command line tool, **see: [[:​Downloads#​Firmware]]**.
