This is something I have been testing with XFINITY Stream NEXTPVR Free Donation) and Channels DVR.. Tuning is a bit slow but when you are recording with a 30 second Pre-Padding it is no Problem.
REQ
HDMI Capture Device FireStick(XFINITY Stream) Windows machine required to run NEXTPVR for now.
Looking forward to seeing more on this. Could even be possible to record some on demand content?...hmm
Yes the dev that I have been testing for already has an on-demand feature implemented it is just a matter of documentation. Once we are ready you can easily implement into Channels DVR.... using M3U
This is just a sample using NEXTPVR ui recording on demand ..
This is what we have working right now .... Using HDMI Encoder or USB Encoder
Can Record using HDHomeRun Primes all Channels.... including DRM using a device that can View these... Also when ATSC 3.0 DRM is supported by Silicondust.
Can Record from XFINITY Stream using FireTV or any device that can View it... You can Create own Scripts to record from other LiveTV Services.
Can Record on Demand.

Hi, is there an update on this project? Thanks!
ADBTuner has replaced this for me it can do what this does.
So with an ABD tuner can I have full access to Xfinity Stream app to send to Channels and record all my local channels and pay channels?
Can it tap into the Xfinity Stream app more than once so I can record multiple items at the same time?
With XFINITY you can have up to 5 devices ... I no longer use NEXTPVR ... I use ADBTUNER which works great ... My Setup is to use 4 Firesticks attached to a 4 input HDMI Uray capture device ... if you need help, please post in the ADBTUNER thread.
Could I then record to Channels?
Where do I find the thread you are referring to?
Thread is here ADBTuner: A "channel tuning" application for networked Google TV / Android TV devices
