Manual building tvheadend from https://github.com/tvheadend/tvheadend on Raspbian Buster

Wolfgang Zenner · 2023-01-01T23:53:38+00:00

Hello, I downloaded the zip file under "https://github.com/tvheadend/tvheadend" and ran the command ./configure on my RaspberryPi3 with Raspbian Buster with...

Wolfgang Zenner

vlc is running and running ... and doesn't show a stream, only the bar at the bottom went from left to right and back.
the second statement in the browser went to 100% CPU and I had to switch my computer off, because I couldn't to anything.

I created an m3u for arte HD:

#EXTM3U
#EXTINF:-1 tvg-id="af66bdf500ddc6a8ee57a0edca2f48ba" tvg-chno="5",arte HD

http://192.168.1.52:9981/stream/channelid/1975346863?profile=pass

I was asked for username/password and the bar moved from left to right... and didn't play

Wolfgang Zenner

Is there something wrong with may configuration? Do I have to do some additional config?

Create new user * (star) with same password.
Allow in user profile access from your home network ip's aka 192.168.0.0/24
No credentials will be needed from your home network.

Wolfgang Zenner

So I created the new user started vlc --> open network stream --> "http://192.168.1.52:9981/playlist/channels" --> asking for username/password "*" for both - how long do I have to wait now?

How exactly you created * user?
Do you allow ANY permissions?

VLC need special plugin for HTSP protocol, so allow all streaming formats.

Also are you sure what is your local network ip's?

Wolfgang Zenner

I allowed all streaming formats and started vlc

change network to be equal as yours.

I changed to "192.168.1.0/24" - but normally "0" means ALL, I think

and vlc says:
access error: HTTP connection failure
main error: read error: Operation now in progress

http error: failed to read answer

vlc did not ask for username/password

I manage tvheadend with "http://192.168.1.52:9981/extjs.html"

But /24 mean 0-255

So it work, but read help for permissions.

http://192.168.1.52:9981/playlist/channels shows

main error: read error: Operation now in progress
http error: failed to read answer

access error: HTTP connection failure

and after a while:
dbus debug: Getting property Position
dbus debug: Getting property Position
dbus debug: Getting property Position
dbus debug: Getting property Position
.

the stream "http://192.168.1.52:9981/stream/channelid/1975346863?profile=pass" work (shows the Video), but shows many errors:

EPG-Data - not that much

Is it possible, to start EPG grabbing for 11493.75H from bash?
I tried to populate EPG data with a wget command, but this hangs, when EPG grabbing is running - this morning I had 7 wget processes in the table of processes

You can do it from the user interface. Configuration -> DVB Inputs -> Mux Schedulers.

Wolfgang Zenner

like this, or do I need the restart button too?
It's easy to verify if it works like this, because all autorecs are dropped, when EPG tells "El canal...". When the grabber starts next, all autorecs are inserted again and logged in /var/log/syslog

davep

I'm not sure what the restart button does exactly, maybe just try both and see what happens.

Wolfgang Zenner

You're right - Life is trial and error ;-)

Hello, I attach my syslog:
At line 1, 12:54 I stopped watching arte HD.
At line 2, 13:00 the definition from "Mux Schedulers" started (every hour)
At line 29, 14:00 it started again.
From line 35, 14:04 until line 421, 15:13 the epggrabbing was running

At line 444 16:00 the definition from "Mux Schedulers" was running again and got the EPG data, because at line 449 my autorec was scheduled again.

So the EPG data was lost between 14:00 and 16:00, maybe because of the general EPG grabbing

my "Internal Grabber Settings" are
# Default config (00:04 and 12:04 everyday)

4/12

and the "OTA Grabber Settings" are
# Default config (02:04 and 14:04 everyday)

4 2 4 14

both the default, so I don't know, why they were started at 16:04

But the question is, why it looses "arte HD" data and got "El canal ..." as EPG data ...
