Description

I would love if tvheadend was able to combine multiple .ts recordings to create a pseudo channel. Maybe using m3u files?

Using this the user would for example be able to create a custom news channel consisting of news recordings from the last 24 hours. Or what about a custom Simpsons channel consisting of all simpsons recordings in dvr history?

Taking it a bit futher, i would love to create custom muxes with these custom channels, serving them to sat>ip clients on my network.

Any possibility of implementing something like this?

You can do this with the pipe:// handler: Custom_MPEG-TS_Input. Simply use VLC to "play" an m3u file to STDOUT, something like

cvlc --sout '#std{mux=ts,access=file,dst=-}' my_private_tv_channel.m3u

(assuming that your files are in a supported codec, otherwise you have to transcode them)

Tvheadend is not a muxer / stream recoder. I'm sorry.

I agree even though I think it would have been a nice feature however at least there is a solution :)
