try this by putting playlist generated by TVH

Dear saen acro,

Thank you for your fast response!

I did try version 1 of xupnpd with regular HTTP IPTV streams. It is detected properly in the Panasonic TV, however it did not manage to play this particular stream.
Moreover, I had to access the DLNA server in the "Devices" menu which is slower.

If there is any way to add the IPTV streams via the SAT>IP client, then the channel access would be easier, the switching shall be faster and the EPG should be available.

Are there any other options to try?
Thank you in advance!

I don't have a Panasonic TV to test.
SAT>IP standard is based on Network Tuner aka management of network tuner in non-routed network.
(there is walk-around with masquerading)

IPTV not cover DVB as-is so streaming start on TV is slower.
HLS streaming is solution for this with is not compatible with ON-Demand scenarios.

Hi,

I have some progress and a new question.

Let's say that I would like to map the available IPTV muxes as SAT>IP services and expose them as DVB-S channels.

I can successfully accomplish this by setting the SAT>IP DVB-S frequency (kHz) field in the mux settings.
For example, for channel 1, I can set a DVB-S frequency of 11552750 kHz while for channel 2 12610500 kHz can be set (please see the attached screenshots).
This would enable these two channels to be recognized and distinguished by the DVB-S SAT>IP client.

Hence, a few questions arise:

1. How could I possibly know the correct "imaginary" DVB-S/DVB-S2 frequencies so that my DVB-S SAT>IP client recognizes the separate channels? So far, for testing purposes, I have used the information in https://cz.kingofsat.net/pos-19.2E.php and https://www.lyngsat.com/Astra-1KR-1L-1M-1N.html.

2. Is there an option to map more than one channel to the same frequency, by using for example service/channel ID? If yes, how can this be accomplished?

3. In the case of IPTV, there are as many muxes as there are channels in my playlist. This requires that each channel (mux) is configured separately with frequency settings which could be tedious for hundreds or even thousands of channels. Is there any way to edit muxes in bulk or to otherwise automate this task?

I am currently using the unstable release for Debian Stretch ( HTS Tvheadend 4.3-1804~gebb096804 ).
Thank you in advance!

Hello again,

Yet another question has arisen.

I added some DVB-T channels which have "embedded" Electronic Program Guide, and I also configured an additional grabber so that I can use the information provided by an external XMLTV file.
All seems to load and work properly, and seems to be accurately displayed in the Electronic Program Guide tab of the Tvheadend web interface.

However, for some reason, the EPG of most IPTV channels is not shown when playing the generated list of HTTP streams (via http://tvh.ip:9981/playlist) in VLC. Only one or two IPTV channels (which already have "embedded" EPG in the stream) are displayed correctly.
The EPG displays correctly for DVB-T channels.

My questions regarding this issue are:
1. What are the means to "embed" the EPG in the HTTP (MPEG-TS?) streams for the IPTV channels which do not have it;
2. Are such tools already integrated in Tvheadend and if yes, how can one configure them?

I suppose that the EPG is contained in some kind of tables, e.g., the Service Description Table (SDT) and Event Information Table (EIT) information.

From what I already found, some software which could perform such tasks would be openepg and opencaster, perhaps also libdvbtee.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance!

EPG bug is reported
it hold EPG 30 second by unknown reason

But in same time you can have full EPG off-stream by
http://tvh.ip:9981/xmltv

Thank you for the fast response, @saen acro!

Unfortunately VLC claims that there is still no EPG data even after minutes of playing a particular stream.

How can one import the off-stream full EPG into VLC for instance?
I know how it can be done in Kodi's IPTV simple client. However, on Kodi I use the Tvheadend client which displays the EPG properly.

Thanks!

Use ProgDVB/ProgTV or IP-TV Player

Thanks, I will check them out!
However, this does not, unfortunately, solve the issue with SAT>IP clients not seeing the EPG

SAT>IP client populate EPG from stream or mux/transponder.
if in stream there is no EPG, no EPG will be seen.

For my setup, currently the client discovers a single channel only.
How do I configure multiple channels to use the same DVB-S frequency, so that the (Panasonic) SAT>IP client discovers all channels/muxes?

I've installed tvheadend on a Synology NAS with a HDHomerun as a DVB source. I'd like to stream to a Panasonic TV which is supposed to be able to tune to IPTV channels.
Has anyone got this to work?
