[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1065953, member: 82144"] Hello folks Just a quick note to say I received Jason's email and I haven't forgotten about this thread. I'm struggling to keep all the balls in the air with no internet access at home. A comment on the thread topic... From what Jason said in his email I'm currently thinking there is a fairly serious and low-level issue with the library (live555) that MP's IPTV filter uses for RTSP. In simple terms that means I don't think there will be a quick fix. What are the options? [LIST=1] [*]Upgrade the library and [B]hope[/B] it fixes the problem. [*]Try the new IPTV filter which uses a different RTSP library. [*]Code our own CableCARD RTSP support. [/LIST] First option is pretty much off the table. Upgrading live555 would be a massive job because it is used to stream from TV Server to MP remote clients. The amount of testing that would have to be done + the chances of screwing it up + no guarantee it would help => not a runner. Second option is potentially the best option for now. georgius has been working on a new IPTV filter to extend the capabilities and fix some of the bugs and limitations of the current filter: [url]https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/threads/merging-mediaportal-url-source-splitter-iptv-filter.121165/[/url] The new filter is a drop in replacement with a completely different RTSP library.
