Requirements:
IPTV patched VDR-1.5.9+ and multicast/unicast transport streams
Description:
This plugin integrates multicast IPTV transport streams seamlessly into
VDR. You can use any IPTV channel like any other normal DVB channel for
live viewing, recording, ...
Currently the IPTV plugin supports multicast UDP/RTP and unicast HTTP
streams. Also a file input method is supported, but file delay must be
selected individually to prevent VDR's transfer buffer over/underflow.
Therefore it should be considered as a testing feature only.
Installation:
cd /put/your/path/here/VDR/PLUGINS/src
tar -xzf /put/your/path/here/vdr-iptv-X.Y.Z.tgz
ln -s iptv-X.Y.Z iptv
cd /put/your/path/here/VDR
patch -p1 < PLUGINS/src/iptv/patches/vdr-1.5.x-iptv.patch
cp sources.conf /path/to/vdrconf/
make
make plugins
./vdr -P iptv
Setup parameters:
- TS buffer size [MB] = 2 Defines ringbuffer size for transport
stream in MB.
The valid range: 1...16
- TS buffer prefill ratio [%] = 0 Defines prefill ratio for transport
stream ringbuffer before data is
transferred to VDR.
The valid range: 0...40
- Use section filtering = 1 Defines whether section filtering shall
be used.
The valid range: 0...1
- Scan Sid automatically = 1 Defines whether service id shall be
scanned automatically. Requires section
filtering.
The valid range: 0...1
- Disable filters = 0 Certain section filters might have some
unwanted behaviour. This option allows you
to blacklist them. If this option is set
to a non-zero value, the menu page will
contain that many "Disable filter" options
which allow you to disable the individual
section filters.
