TVheadend 4.1-2216 - iptv list and XMLTV

Added by José Teixeira about 8 years ago

Hi,
I have remote link that gives me a m3u list. I have created an auto IPTV network. All my muxes are imported, but some of the streams are not in .ts, some of them are .mp4, and TVH fails to scan them, therefore I cannot map them to services. Is there a way to do this? .. to add .mp4 to the services list?
Another issue, I have never used XMLTV epg as I always used EIT epg. Found that there is an internal xmltv for Portugal in this version and that is the only way to use EPG with iptv channels.How do I configure this to import epg to my channels.
Thanks

I've been using https://github.com/Jalle19/node-ffmpeg-mpegts-proxy with a number of UK Radio AAC Streams (and NASA TV amongst others) and it's been working well.

As for the XML Grabbers, I've not used the internal ones as the UK OTA EPGs are rather comprehensive, however I belive the steps are as follows

(The following tv_grab_### name can be found under the path of tvheadend's Internal grabbers configuration page)

SSH into the server running TV Headend
sudo su -l hts
/usr/bin/tv_grab_pt_meo --configure

follow the steps shown on screen.

Just a note: most of the xmltv grabbers are part of the xmltv-utils packages and may need to be installed. Some grabbers require a few additional perl modules, too. Also, depending upon your distribution, TVH may not find the grabbers: they need to be {/usr,}/{s,}bin – at least that was the situation for me; just having them in ${PATH} wasn't enough.
