User Reviews

TVHClient is a solid TVHeadend client with reliable core features and flexible playback options. Users praise ease of use, good EPG/recording management, and responsive support. However, multiple reviews highlight recurring issues: internal video playback failing (audio only); connection and Chromecast streaming problems; crashes and stability concerns after updates; EPG data inaccuracies and slow/missing updates; and UI/UX regressions like tablet layout changes and missing full-screen mode. Overall it’s capable when it works, but consistency varies.

Pros

Solid core TVHeadend functionality with reliable viewing and recording across multiple servers.
Flexible playback options with internal player and support for external players.
Easy to use with good EPG/recording management.
Responsive support and helpful setup guidance (clear port usage and HTTPS).
Works across multiple devices and server setups with easy switching.

Cons

Internal video playback often fails (video not shown; audio only) across devices.
Connection issues: cannot connect to TVHeadend, LAN access problems, and Chromecast streaming disconnects.
Stability problems: frequent crashes/out-of-memory after updates.
EPG data inaccuracies and slow or missing updates.
UI/UX regressions and rough edges: tablet layout changes, missing full-screen option, slow icon loading, and confusing settings labels.

Recent reviews

It asked to use an external app to play a TV stream (video player or photos), then gave me an error. Using Samsung Galaxy Ace device. Setup is unhelpful and geeky. Sorry, I really wanted this to work.
