      I’m a complete newbie, so pardon my ignorance. I want to do a project, presumably using Kodi, that will allow live TV channels to be rotated. (Say between 2 different live football games.) Is this even doable with Kodi addons and/or scripts, or will I have to fork the Kodi code base and start hacking that? I’ve looked over the addon api, and didn’t notice anything that would allow one to programatically change Live TV channels.

      I’m not a huge fan of C++, so would prefer to avoid going down that Kodi source code route.

      If you could point me to reference and quickstart programming guides for LiveTV stuff, I’d also appreciate that.

      Sorry, while I am a web developer, I’m not a Kodi developer. But, would your idea use the Live TV feature of Kodi that makes use of an antenna and a TV back-end software? I’m even having a hard time picturing how someone would control such an interface that would rotate between 2 channels. I don’t know why anyone would want that before they just get 2 TVs.
