After Reconfig Profile everything ok.

thank you so much

Thanks for the tutorial. I almost got it working. In fact, it works very well with VLC, but when I try to use it in Kodi, it stays in "Testing" status, seems like Kodi thinks that stream is still scrambled and then asks tvheadend to descramble it.

Is there a workaround for that or maybe an ugly patch for tvheadend?
Sometimes I have managed to start the stream even in Kodi, but I cannot reproduce it.

try this OSEmu

https://github.com/L-S-D/OSEmu/tree/tvheadend

work with xbmc

Thanks, this one works. I tried OSEmu from same repo but from master branch.

So while debugging a bit, I found one problem. While the url generated by the scripts works for decrypting/playing the stream from TVHeadend, it was not sending emm info. Finally I noticed that alhough TVHeadend wasn't complaining (even in debug logs), it did not parse the "emm=1" properly. To get it to work, you need to add another "&" between "emm=1" and the trailing sid info for oscam. (":0:0:4")

So to get the emm pids to be sent, the url needs to be changed to something like:

http://pvu:[email protected]:17999/stream/service/5207215882cb76f456a5d65ecfba2124?profile=PowerVU&descramble=0&emm=1&:0:0:4

Here are updated scripts to automatically generate the correct urls.

After trying OSEmu from that branch a bit longer. It still seems to have issues with tvh and Kodi.
There is a commit "quick fix for getting rid of the ECM stream in the output by changing its pid to null pid so tvh does not think the service is encrypted.", but it seems that tvh still thinks that the service is encrypted, at least according to services tab (tried different version, atm i'm using 4.1-1212).
So, sometimes it works from Kodi, but sometimes not, just gets stuck with buffering message or shows "No input detected" message.
For me it is not very reliable.

Hello All,

I finally got it running!! Jehhaaaw
After updating to TVH-4.1 PowerVU is working with OSEmu.
However if using KODI sometimes the tvheadend process dies while zapping,
but for me it's more about testing AFN than using it on a daily basis.

AWESOME

hi D.S.

could you write a how to? I would love to try it my self.
my osemu is serving the keys, but the channels stay dark, in vlc and kodi.
osemu -> oscam -> dvapi -> tvheadend is how i set it up.

thanks
mike

In the first post is the how to. You do not need osemu->oscam->dvapi->tvheadend. Just use a standalone osemu and use the stream relay connection ONLY. If you have the osemu->oscam->dvapi->tvheadend connected, it will try to decrypt the normal way which does not work.

BTW - if you use my scripts (above) to generate URLs, you can use the standard OSEmu. Also, you can try my latest OSEmu which adds fix for detecting AC3 tracks on some channels and AU through the stream relay connection (must include CAT (pid 0x01) and emm pid in stream, which TVHeadend does do...)

A year on is this still the best method to have powervu working within tvheadend?

Well Micklem

TVheadend is build for educational purposes and any type of solution is welcome to test, powervu is not only for USA in Europe there is a lot TP that work under PowerVu Solution..

I am trying powervu on latest tvheadend 4.3-710, latest oscam and emu patch, but Tvheadend crashes.
Is Powervu working for somebody?
According to that post https://tvheadend.org/issues/3360 it should work! (without oscam stream relay)
Thanks in advance.

Create a bug with the crash report if you have any problems.

Thanks for the quick answer, but I Never created a bug before!
Do I need to send a log of tvheadend in debug mode (I am not even sure how to do that, I saw an option in the GUI to do that, but it also ask for a subsystem and I am not sure what to enter?).
With crash report you mean the /var/log/syslog of my OS?
Sorry for my ignorance.

https://tvheadend.org/projects/tvheadend/wiki/Debugging#Incorrect-not-useable-crash-reports for start; we'll ask more if required
