tvheadend client is only seeing "default" as streaming profile

Added by stefan ott over 2 years ago

hey everyone,

my setup is acting weird: when i want to add the server as source to my client i need to select the streaming profile.
usually u get the selection displaying "pass", "matroska" and so on .. i only get "Default" as only entry to select from.. which is not any actual streaming profile configured in the server.

Any idea what is going wrong and how i can fix this?
- maybe something in the general, user or stream configuration on the server?

i have just installed according to

I don't think it is the client, because i had a friend trying the same client on his setup and he got all the streaming profiles as usual.

Client:
dream Player TV for TVheadend (Beta), Version 5.5.1 for Android TV
on a nVidia Shield TV Pro (2015) with SW Version 9.0.1

Server
TVHeadend Build: 4.3-2010~g3b1d7a928 (2022-03-15T10:50:53+0000)
On Ubuntu 20.04.4 LTS Desktop
On an Lenovo Thinkpad T450S

Do you manipulate any of config files in

/home/tvh

RE: tvheadend client is only seeing "default" as streaming profile - Added by stefan ott over 2 years ago

no, just a fresh install from doozer .. no manipulations

RE: tvheadend client is only seeing "default" as streaming profile - Added by stefan ott over 2 years ago

will try, thx!

.. but is there any chance how i can backup some configuration?

especially looking for:
- Channels/Services/muxes (i retagged all channels and disabled a lot)
- CA (cam)
- streaming profiles
- users
(did i forget something important? .. just doing this list out of my head)

how would i unsintall the current tvheadend?

and how would i put the backedup data back into the new installation?

(sorry, but i am a super noob with linux)
