About

Network technician with a passion for signal and code

I am an IT & network technician and open-source developer. My core work is support and on-site problem solving for clients — I approach every task professionally, with focus on getting it done correctly and reliably.

I specialise in MikroTik network technologies, DVB satellite reception and IPTV & streaming technologies. Most of my time, though, goes into open-source development — from Headent Client, a native Android app in Kotlin, to Python plugins for Enigma2, Kodi and ArchivCZSK.

I enjoy connecting the worlds of hardware, networks and software into one working whole. Every new experience moves me forward — there is no problem that cannot be solved.

What I do

Four domains, one signal chain

From satellite signal reception through the network to playback on the end device — I cover the whole chain and the software that holds it together.

01

Network technologies

Design, configuration and maintenance of networks on the MikroTik RouterOS platform — CAPsMAN for centralised Wi-Fi, WireGuard VPN, VLAN segmentation, routing and resolving STP loops. Focus on stability, security and clear documentation.

02

Satellite reception (DVB)

Reception and processing of satellite signal in the DVB-S2/S2X standards — from the dish and LNB through transponder tuning to stream processing and EPG. Hands-on experience with the common European satellite positions.

03

IPTV & streaming

Streaming technologies built around Tvheadend and ErsatzTV. Creating and maintaining M3U playlists, HLS streams, XMLTV EPG and transcoding via FFmpeg for smooth playback across devices.

04

Software development

Developing open-source apps and plugins. A native Android app in Kotlin / Jetpack Compose for TV boxes and phones, Python plugins for Enigma2, Kodi and ArchivCZSK, plus PHP web tools for network monitoring and ISP customer management. CI/CD via GitHub Actions.
