There is (generally) no need to ever run WMC on the recording box. You can run it mostly headless if desired. OTA recordings can be played via another WMC/Windows computer, or through Kodi. Just share the recorded TV folder and watch anywhere on your network. Although the hdhomerun can allow you to have multiple recording systems in the house, it s simpler to manage series with just one recording box.
To schedule recordings remotely, use remotepotato. With remotepotato installed on the recording computer, you can access the guide and schedule recordings via webpage, android app, or even via another WMC system (via wmc plugin).
For livetv or recording functions via Kodi, look into serverwmc, which is also installed on the recording system. I find it easier to schedule series via the web interface, and I just use serverwmc/kodi for live tv viewing.
