Running tvheadend with Sundtek DVB stick in LXC container

Saturday, 30 July 2022

Just a short reminder to myself, but maybe helpful to others.

  1. Create a privileged lxc container based on debian-bullseye-amd64
  2. Create a user for tvheadend on the host, e.g. "lxc-tvheadend"
  3. Create the directory /srv/tvheadend and chown it to the created user
  4. Write down the UID and GID of the created user ("id lxc-tvheadend")
  5. Follow the instructions to install the Sundtek Driver on a Docker host:
    https://sundtek.de/wiki/index.php?title=Docker
  6. Provide access to /srv/tvheadend (will be mapped to /srv) and the USB stick within the containers config:
    # Sundtek DVB stick
    lxc.apparmor.profile = unconfined
    lxc.cgroup2.devices.allow = c 212:* rwm
    lxc.cgroup2.devices.allow = c 250:* rwm
    lxc.cgroup2.devices.allow = c 189:* rwm
    lxc.mount.entry = /dev/dvb dev/dvb none bind,optional,create=dir
    lxc.mount.entry = /dev/bus/usb dev/bus/usb none bind,optional,create=dir
    lxc.mount.entry = /srv/tvheadend srv none bind,optional,create=dir
     
  7. Start the container and attach to it
  8. Within the container, install curl and tvheadend
  9. Create a new user and group "tvheadend" with the UID/GID of the host system
  10. Edit /etc/defaults/tvheadend and change the OPTIONS line to
    OPTIONS="-u tvheadend -g tvheadend -c /srv/tvheadend"
  11. Install Sundtek driver within the container (not in host mode!)
  12. Reboot the container
lxc
