Register External Stream as tvheadend recording

Added by Ross Forder over 6 years ago

Hi,

I'm just wondering if there is a way to register an external stream as a recording. I have an external iptv provider that supplies both live channels and re-recorded shows. I have created a channel using pipes, however for the shows (available for a few days at a time), I'd prefer to run a script to add (and later remove) these as recordings via API so that they are accessible as a recording when available?

Is there a way to register a script as a recording or stream as a recording via API so that it could be executed and/or fed to ffmpeg??

Thanks

I guess either I've broken some internal rule or no one knows or cares.

My understanding is that these stream support seeking (as they are VoD), so if I could hook the recording subsystem to a stream I'd be able to seek (which doesn't work via live channels).

If anyone has any ideas as to which bits of the code I should look at it'd be appreciated :-)

Thanks
