alt Hacker NewsI wish projects would have a short "what this is" paragraph. Right now, the front page is a forum, "docs" says the documentation is maintained by users and links to the changelog, and there's nothing anywhere that tells me what this project does.

Agreed the website is poorly organized, but if you click About, you get that paragraph:
https://tvheadend.org/p/about
> Tvheadend is the leading TV streaming server and recorder for Linux supporting ATSC, DVB-C/C2, DVB-S/S2, DVB-T/T2, ISDB-T, IPTV, SAT>IP and HDHomeRun input sources. Tvheadend outputs HTTP (VLC, MPlayer), HTSP (Kodi, Movian) and SAT>IP streams, and can ingest multiple Electronic Program Guide (EPG) formats including over-the-air (OTA) broadcast data for DVB and ATSC, and OpenTV extensions like XMLTV and PyXML.
So it's a DVR project in the vein of TiVo and Windows Media Center.
