I dual boot Kubuntu
22.04(edit: 23.04) on the SD. Using a Pinnacle 801e TV stick and NextPVR for viewing.The TV stick does most of the heavy lifting, CPU usage was really low. Drivers weren’t an issue. It’s already supported in the kernel.
I just got sick of that damn hedgehog struttin’ around like he owns the place.

I honestly completely forgot cable TV was a thing, but that is really cool!
Many cans of beer were sacrificed in the making of this project
Doesn’t look like cable but over the air via digital antenna.
Yup, just the cheap antenna that came with the TV stick. But it did work with cable before Time Warner / Spectrum switched to cable boxes.
Should be possible to get paid TV in Europe over antenna or cable with one of these: https://www.tbsdtv.com/products/tbs5881_dvb-t2_tv_tuner_ci_usb_box.html
