Live TV, movies, and series usually live in separate apps; VodMax gathers them in one home server with a set-top-box feel. Zap channels by number, browse a program guide grid, pause and rewind a live show, or start it from the beginning. Record from the guide or with rules, and even type a sentence like "record tonight's film" to the optional assistant. Playlists from M3U or Xtream Codes sit beside local folders of movies and series, and posters, plots, cast, continue watching, next episode, and skip intro work across all of them. Each person gets a profile with their own progress, favorites, and a kids mode, and TVs and phones pair with a short code or a home sign-in. Plex, Jellyfin, and Emby can see the server as a tuner, and TiviMate, Kodi, and VLC read its playlist and guide. A catalog filter keeps only your countries, years, and categories, and an optional built-in WireGuard tunnel keeps playlist traffic private. Encrypted backups, downloads for offline viewing, and an interface in six languages round it out. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.

Denpa is a home TV recording server that turns a Linux machine and a TV tuner into a private recorder for Japanese terrestrial and satellite broadcasts, with reservations and browser playback. There are no configuration files: plug in a supported tuner and card reader, press scan, and the tuner type, channels, and program guide set themselves up. Reserve from the guide, or save a search as a rule and matching broadcasts record automatically; a repeated episode is ignored after its first airing is captured. Recordings encode to AV1 or H.264 MKV files (H.265 when a GPU is present) with captions exactly as broadcast, and detected commercials become chapters that playback skips entirely. Playback resumes where you stopped, runs at up to double speed, and clips save on the server with captions intact; programs also download to devices for offline viewing. Live viewing runs about a second behind the broadcast: pausing starts chase playback, alternate audio stays selectable, and BML data broadcasting works in the browser. The companion denpa-tv app reaches Android TV and Fire TV through QR pairing, and an API exposes channels, recordings, and audio-only feeds to Home Assistant and scripts. EPGStation and EDCB users can import rules, reservations, and recordings, and the interface stays closed until you open it to trusted networks or protect it with OIDC login.
