Crashing when adding my m3u url

Added by Emile Jaacques 3 months ago

I'm trying to get tvheadend running. I installed it, go through the initial setup, languages, user accounts, then when I add my m3u URL, I get "transaction aborted", web UI becomes unresponsive and the tvheadend process uses 100% CPU. I let it run for 1h and still unresponsive. My CPU is a modern one, it's not slow by any means. I tried restarting tvheadend but stays unresponsive until I delete the config and start all over again. No error in logs. Last log I get is: [ INFO] bouquet: new bouquet 'IPTV Automatic Network'

Any tips?

What is the source of your m3u.Does it require authentication credentials to run.

I let it run overnight and it managed to scan some:

It scans about 3 per hour and there's 200k+

Honestly TVH is not something I’d choose for IPTV. It’s not one of its strengths.

If you have it configured with an unlimited amount of streams your CPU probably isn't enough for over 200000 simultaneous streams. Probably even your connection isn't fast enough either, that's 200 Gbit/s if each stream has only 1 Mbit/s.

If you're trying to use the EPG grabber for streams that don't have an EPG it will take a long time until a timeout is reached eventually.
