Tvheadend works "as a service" making use of a dedicated user: hts
. Therefore its files and configuration are stored under /home/hts
Tvheadend works with upstart therefore to start/stop/restart the service:
sudo /etc/init.d/tvheadend start
The Tvheadend daemon uses port 9981, therefore to access the web interface, point your browser to
http://localhost:9981
Login credentials are stored in /home/hts/.hts/tvheadend/superuser
.
