Centralization of services from several sources

Robert Frischer

Hi.
I am trying to solve problem with several RPIs with TVhat. Mygoal is to centralize all MUX/services/TVchannels from several TVHeadend servers, as presented on picture. The reason why is because the single RPI with TVhat cannot stream two independent MUX in same time. So I built several TVHeadend servers and I need to centralize all channels in one of them.

On main TVHeadend it is need to create "IPTV Automatic netowork" with URL: http://user:pass@RPI_IP:9981/playlist/channels, it could see MUXes (http://RPI_IP:9981/stream/channelid/1741069550?profile=pass), but I need to manualy insert user:pass into every MUX. for a some period of time muxes diappeeared and i have to scan/insert user:pass...

Option 1
Make user with password allowing streaming to local IP subnet (192.168.1.0/24).

This will bypass need of password's.

Option 2

Set Sat>IP servers on each device and use them on main device.

Password protection on main device can be simplified by using persistent authentication in password.

unorthodox approach

tap the adapter directly

Step 1
(you can do this with a script in bash) on machine 10,11,12

cvlc -vvv atsc://frequency=514000 :dvb-adapter=0 :dvb-srate=0 :dvb-modulation=8VSB --programs=6 --sout '#standard{access=http,mux=ts,dst=192.168.1.11:32000}'

do this on the three machines without tvheadend (or leave tvheadend installed and disable the adapter on the adapter page)

Step 2

then on the main machine make an IPTV mux in the running tvheadend with :

http://192.168.1.10:32000 as the address for the mux
http://192.168.1.11:32000

http://192.168.1.12:32000

do step 1 on the three "feeders" with different muxes make different channels on the main machine

not going to work if you have 120 muxes to move around but 2 or 3 will be nice and solid

Note the VLC command is for atsc so it will have to be adjusted for whichever your using

good luck clint
