[Solved]Unable to install tvheadend

[fortysix]

Ah, it looks like you're hitting some snags trying to install Tvheadend! Based on the error messages you're getting, it really sounds like a network connectivity or DNS resolution issue, preventing your Pi from fetching packages from the Debian and Xbian repositories.

This typically happens due to:

No Network Connectivity: Your Pi isn't connected to the internet, or the connection is unstable.
DNS Resolution Problems: Your Pi can't translate the domain names like deb.debian.org and apt.xbian.org into IP addresses.
Here are a few suggestions you can try:

Check Your Network Connection:

Make sure your Raspberry Pi is actually connected to the internet, whether it's via Wi-Fi or Ethernet.
Try pinging a reliable external server, like ping 8.8.8.8 (Google's DNS server) or ping google.com, to see if you have general internet connectivity. If these fail, you have a basic network issue.
Verify DNS Settings:

If you do have network connectivity, then it's highly likely a DNS problem. You might want to edit your /etc/resolv.conf file to use public DNS servers, such as Google's 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4.
How to do it:
sudo nano /etc/resolv.conf
Add or modify the file to include:
nameserver 8.8.8.8
nameserver 8.8.4.4
Save and exit (Ctrl+X, Y, Enter).
Try restarting your network services or simply rebooting your Pi.
Run sudo apt-get update Again:

Once you've checked and hopefully resolved any network or DNS issues, run sudo apt-get update again. If this command executes without errors, it means your repositories are accessible.
Then Try Installing Tvheadend:

sudo apt-get install xbian-package-tvheadend
Hope these tips help you out!
