@Lyfesaver74 have US cablecard
Will you test this filter with your cableCard?Yes I do
Your post is not for this thread, it should be somewhere in MP 1.5 support, because is related to filter delivered with MP 1.5. But I try to help you. Unsupported protocol messages are not relevant, because are reported by other protocols (HTTP, UDP, RTP), which obviously don't support RTSP. Ports 31000 - 32000 (set in MPIPTVSource.ini) are used only in internal filter communication (there is no other way how to get data from Live555 library), but for RTSP are choosed another ports (by Live555 library), unfortunatelly there is no way how to set ports for Live555. In that case forwarding of these ports on router is not required, because these data are not flowing through router. You should allow all ports (TCP and UDP) for MediaPortal processes (TvService, MediaPortal client and SetupTv). You should also add MediaPortal processes to excluded process of antivirus solution (especialy Microsoft Security Essentials). Also you should set log verbosity for filter to verbose level (LogVerbosity parameter in MPIPTVSource.ini to value 4).Hi,
I just notified azzuro on the french forum about non-working RTSP streams from FreeTV ISP with MP1.5. I can read all RTSP streams from the .m3u playlist using VLC but scanning from TV Server configuration always returns 'no signal'. I had this behaviour with MP 1.4 yesterday so I upgraded to 1.5 today with no improvement.
I deactivated Windows firewall, forwarded ports 31000 to 32000 on my router and set the same ports range in MPIPTVSource.ini.
Odd is that I always succeeded in loading the .m3u perfectly for setting up the IP TV streams from my ISP since I use MP 1.2.3
azzuro confirmed the issue: the logs return a strange "unsupported protocol 'rtsp' " message. See them attached.
Thank you for your support!
I installed your Url source splitter, disabled Windows Firewall and added exclusion to MS Essentials but still get no signal on channel scan. As said previously, streaming with VLC works fine so the router does not seem to be the cause.You should allow all ports (TCP and UDP) for MediaPortal processes (TvService, MediaPortal client and SetupTv). You should also add MediaPortal processes to excluded process of antivirus solution (especialy Microsoft Security Essentials). Also you should set log verbosity for filter to verbose level (LogVerbosity parameter in MPIPTVSource.ini to value 4).
From logs it is clear that no data are received. But it's not known if data are forwarded through router or not. There is need to monitor your network with Wireshark tool.
