Help with adding m3u8 streams to tvheadend

Added by Robert Cernik almost 8 years ago

Hi, I woud like to kindly ask how can I add m3u8 links from my playlist to tvheadend.
I added mux in configuration section, I put this url into new mux, set mux name and channel name and this is what I see in log:

2017-01-14 11:30:12.684 mpegts: AXN in IPTV - tuning on IPTV
2017-01-14 11:30:12.684 epggrab: AXN in IPTV - registering mux for OTA EPG
2017-01-14 11:30:12.685 subscription: 016A: "scan" subscribing to mux "AXN", weight: 5, adapter: "IPTV", network: "IPTV", service: "Raw PID Subscription"
2017-01-14 11:30:27.684 mpegts: AXN in IPTV - scan no data, failed
2017-01-14 11:30:27.684 subscription: 016A: "scan" unsubscribing

Thank you for your time and help.

Robert

Not a good idea to post the ip address/hostname...

looks like it is not creating the real url correctly, not sure why..

[  TRACE] iptv: m3u url: 'http://ip-address/master_64.m3u8hls/AXN_low.m3u8'

should be:
 http://ip-addr/hls/AXN_low.m3u8

IIRC, IPTV streams must be MPEG-TS containers, not MP4s as are generally served by HLS.

You may need to pipe them through ffmpeg in order to get them into a proper container.
