Check the ffmpeg output at first (run pipe command from cmd line and redirect it to a file). If it works, attach 30 seconds from the IPTV mux in TVH (play link).

Excuse my ignorance, what would be the correct syntax to do so ?
Updated by Jaroslav Kysela almost 10 years ago
Just remove the 'pipe://' prefix from the URL you specified.
To save the mux's input stream use (for example) : wget -O a.ts 'play_url'

.ts attached in first post was already captured as per your suggestion (wget -O a.ts 'play_url')
Updated by Jaroslav Kysela almost 10 years ago
You must redirect standard output to a file - like 'ls > a.txt' so 'ffmpeg > a.ts' .
I mean play URL from the MUX grid (configuration table). Not from service or channels.
Updated by Jaroslav Kysela almost 10 years ago
Don't forget to test the .ts file produced by ffmpeg using vlc or any other player.

Here is .ts produced from command line using this
ffmpeg -user-agent Kodi/14.1 -i http://INPUT -codec:v copy -codec:a copy -bsf:v h264_mp4toannexb -metadata service_provider=BIGTV -metadata service_name=Aljazeera -tune zerolatency -f mpegts pipe:1 > a.ts
Tested in VLC, it produces only audio

OK. So you see that your input is broken. Provide valid MPEG-TS stream to TVHeadend. Closing as invalid. Try upgrade ffmpeg and/or ask on forums. This is a bug and feature tracker for TVH.

Could you post the whole command? I'll add a note to https://tvheadend.org/projects/tvheadend/wiki/Custom_MPEG-TS_Input . Thanks.

Of course.
pipe:///usr/bin/ffmpeg -loglevel fatal -user-agent Kodi/14.1 -i http://INPUT -codec copy -bsf:v h264_mp4toannexb,dump_extra -metadata service_provider=PROVIDER -metadata service_name=SERVICE -tune zerolatency -f mpegts pipe:1
The following option
-user-agent Kodi/14.1
was necessary as my provider is picky on devices used to watch and wouldn't work with ffmpeg's default user agent string.

Great thanks. I think that it also applies for HEVC.
