IPTV not working (5 Viewers)

AW: Re: IPTV not working

My first idea would be to check if the mp tv-server is blocked by any firewall. This includes the windows firewall as well

If its still not working you could try to use the debug version I posted some pages earlier and do a channelscan with that file. But then only with 2 or 3 channels as it might produce a very big log file.

sorry for my noobish post

is this IPTV a service provided over the internet or via some other means? is it country specific ?

where do i find the plugin for this?

ok ive found it on the TVServer but none of the channels ive searched for are available to me in Australia (not austria)

Re: AW: Re: IPTV not working

Hey HellFireAus,

had a look at your logfile. Everything seems to be good. This version of the IPTV-filter works as it should. So, there must be another problem that is not related to the IPTV-filter. You can check this by using Graphstudio. Just add the MediaPortal IPTV-Soucre filter, enter one of the urls and add the file dump to the filter (by right-clicking on the out-pin). When you start the graph, it will write the stream into the file. If you can play back this file, the IPTV filter works fine.
You should also check what type of media is used for iptv. I think the TVServer supports mpeg2 and h264 only!

Hi. My provider give me this m3u:

#EXTINF:0,1Kanal
http://ch050.tvmix.ru:50
#EXTINF:0,2 Kanal Russia
http://ch051.tvmix.ru:51
#EXTINF:0,2x2
http://ch052.tvmix.ru:52
#EXTINF:0,365 Dney
http://ch091.tvmix.ru:91
#EXTINF:0,3 NTV
http://ch053.tvmix.ru:53
#EXTINF:0,4 Channel
http://ch066.tvmix.ru:66
#EXTINF:0,TVC Ural
http://ch067.tvmix.ru:67

I tried different MPIPTVSource.ax filters, but graphstudio creates a file with zero length. However, the VLC is working fine. Tell me what could be the problem?

I use the IPTV service of my isp to watch regular tv. My isp provides most of the channels I can get via dvb-c. They provide them as DVB-IP streams. So, the service I use is country specific and also specific for the isp. Here in Germay we have 3 isps that provides iptv.
I'm not sure, but I think there are some services available that are not country specific. Perhaps somebody else knows more or you could search on the net.

If graphstudio creates zero byte files it sounds like the firewalls blocks the internet connection for graphstudio.exe/tvservice.exe or the provider uses some weired way to send the data or some kind of authentication is required.
However, without logs it is only guessing. The debug version of the filter produces logs (hope for http connections as well...). It would be the best to ask dimka, because he wrote the http part.

Re: AW: Re: IPTV not working

Stepko & Dimka:

There are two log files:
First - log after create using graphstudio.
Second - log after channels scaning in MediaPortal.

Firewall is off.

Hello.

In Spain (imagenio) have changed the rtp protocol and once applied the patch does not work. My Operating system is windows xp.
MediaPortal indicates the following error: unable to play: live1-0ts.buffer.
May I use the saf 5.
I have also tried changing the codecs to Elecard and does not work
Any suggestions.

Thank you.

dimka and Stepko:
first of all, thanks a looooot for the modification which allows to use MP's TV-server for "Internet TV" streams!
As my ISP stopped to provide IPTV some weeks ago and there is no cable-TV provider available on my street, neither any interesting TV channels on air, your efforts are really appreciated!
So, thank you once again and sorry for not stopping now ;-)
.
My question is about corbina.tv (I mean - free online internet streams they provide).
Dimka, you probably understand what i'm talking about, and I've read your answers on .ru forum aswell, but you may link me if I missed something useful there.
So, there is only officially possible way now to see their streams is to use webbrowser with links to /players/tv.php script, which generates some session key and redirects then to another server.
Neither MP TV-server, nor MP OnlineVideos plugin, nor even "regular" VLC player could show those streams.
But, the "IP-TV Player" on the same PC (an VLC skin/add-on - _http://borpas.info/iptvplayer, only in Russian) parses those links flawlessly! So, could you pls check, if you have some time?
I've been capturing traffic to corbina.tv when used "IP-TV player", VLC and MP TV-server channels scan (attached).
It seems, only first one follows the 302 redirect answer, maybe that's why it can show the stream.
Or, maybe MMS streams not supported at all?
Thanks anyway.

Hej Argd,

Can you post an example of corbina.tv playlist ?

And you are right mms protocol is not supported by that filter (even modified). HTTP as well as UDP protocols are only subsets of MMS protocol and as far I remember mms stream can point to any of udp/tcp/http substreams depends on media player settings.

Also redirects are not suported too

br,
dmitry

Hi, what "playlist" you mean? The playlist for the "IP-TV Player" is as simple as just a bunch of links captured on the _http://www.corbina.tv/transmission/ page (attached). It just works, somehow ;-)
Actually, I'm trying now to build regexps for the OnlineVideos plugin, but without any success so far. When you open those "tv.php" links with your browser, you get to a page with links to tv_asx.php with some parameters kr, sid etc and finally it tries to get a stream from one of the videoN.corbina server - like _rtsp://89.179.134.66/livetv2?... whatever.
But in case you are using MP's OnlineVideo or a regular downloader, you get another page with only a link to video informing you are using incorrect link.
So, I'm afraid they at Corbina do not want to stream their TV to the MP :-D

ok - i see. Then your problem can be solved by using latest filter modifications PLUS extra preauth plugin.

in latest modifications I have added the mechanism of pre-authing of channels. It works in that way:
* playlist contains different channels like
- udp://250@1.1.1.1
- tcp...
- http://
those 3 types are predefined and parsed by filter itself
* playlist can contain another types of chnnels LIKE
- kartina://6734:78942@some.host.com/getchannel.php?ch=2
- some_another_type://some@url/with/some/parameters
* key words here are in bold
as soon as filter finds non default type of channel it tries to find that registered type in a list of DLLs.
If type (let say kartina) is found then function is called to get REAL channel URL. that function makes all intermidiate steps like calling extra urls for preauth, finding proper protocol and so on ... As result the function must return the url in one of 3 predefined protocols. That URL must be the URL of real TV stream.
* Every additional protocol is kept in separated DLL and stored in MPIPTVplugins directory is TV server root. every DLL must export two functions GetProtocol(returns a string of registered protocol) and GetRealURL(gets initial URL, does all preauth job and return real url). All plugin DLLs are preloaded during of TV server start.

So back to your case. You(or some one else ) need some C programming skills in order to build plugin which handles corbina type of TV URLs. I can send you an example of such plugin I am using for getting streams out of Kartina.TV IPTV provider
