Hi all,
I am blown away by this great functionality that tvheadend is offering.
But I am struggling during my first steps - so when I try to play an channel ... nothing comes up.
My environment and my steps:
.Ubuntu Xenial
.TV adapter found - assigned to astra and network and muxes created and the services I was hoping to find are visible.
BUT:
Now I am in services and I click on "play" in the first row for a channel that should be visible ...>> VLC comes up with a black screen
. Even after mapping the service und walking via the EPG I can not see a video
. Any idea what I left out ??

I tried a recording - and I could open this with VLC through the file system. Playback through webui still with same behaviour

THANKS to all!
Michael

From what I can see of your log it looks like a permissions issue.

HTTP/1.0 GET /play/stream/mux/40bd9a8474c342cca909525ff6c77778 -- 401

401 = Unauthorised. Check that the username & password is correct.

Hi!

I doublechecked "all" - I cannot find a mismatch.
I am just wondering that ps shows:
hts 13953 1 0 Dez10 ? 00:08:50 tvheadend -f -u hts -g video

.. I have no user hts or group video

Show I change this?
THanks
Michael

You need to check the username (& password) tab.

Hi !
It continues to be confusing.
I reinstalled completly and always have the 401.
Even when creating a hts user and logging in as such, I see the 401 - just when I open the UI to start to configure.

My question: Is the hts a special created user? I did not create it.
Should I try to change the /etc/default/.. to root ?

Thanks
Michael

I continue to fight:

I was working remote all the time.
Now I went to the server - and at the server everything works.
So it must be somethine either local or??

And: I changed the call of the playback from
http://media:9981/play/stream/channel/d0871e84bcad167d7dd612e2462c5bd5?title=Lieder%20zum%20Advent
to
http://USERNAME:PASSWORD@media:9981/play/stream/channel/d0871e84bcad167d7dd612e2462c5bd5?title=Lieder%20zum%20Advent

AND THIS WORKS !!!
Any idea?
