In the past I have used LibreElec/Kodi on a PC to run Tvheadend serverbut now I would like to run it on my ASUS Router. So far, I have successfully:
-installed ASUSWRT-merlin
-formated a 4G USB stick in ext4 using my desktop PC and attached it to the router
-created an SSH connection to the command prompt on the router
-installed Entware-NG using the merlin script from the command prompt
-used 'opkg' to install Tvheadend from the command prompt
-run 'tvheadend' from the command prompt (plain, no options). In the response text, there are some errors which I have shown in a separate post.
Problem: I am not able to get the tvheadend webUI to respond.
Before tvheadend is started, 192.168.2.1:9981 will go straight to a "Unable to Connect" browser screen. After I start tvheadend, the browser will grind away but doesn't come back immediately with anything. After a while it will give "Unable to Connect". This leads me to believe that something is going on when tvheadend is running.
This is alot of new stuff to me so it could be a fundamental error on my part. Is it the router or tvheadend that is the problem? Is there an easy way to tell? Suggested next steps?
