1.27.0 Will OnLineVideos come back with working channels ? (1 Viewer)

[joecrow]

Just gave ZDF Live (High) a quick try on my HTPC (MP1.29) and it worked fine as did 3 Sat, and Arte (Did not try the rest, ARD Mediatek, Das Erste Live is also working at 1920 x 1280.

Hmm, wonder why the ZDF channels don't work here
UrlSplitter as well as latest LAV are installed and configured correctly

I am using the moded OV that has the option to enable or disable the use of the MPUrlSourceSplitter and it is disabled! Maybe that is the difference?

See here for further info, working version is several posts down!

Yeaaah! THX - that did the trick - it´s working now

This still annoys me that MPUrlSourceSplitter isn't able to handle those streams...
I really like (and sometimes need) the extra functionality that MPUrlSourceSplitter offers, and the current code is too complicated (at least for me) to work where exactly the problem is and peek at LAV to see how it's handled overthere...
In fact I have some tvstreams that suffer from it too, and tried to make it so that the choice of splitter can be a per-site one, but that sure is complicated to do that nicely.... maybe when I'm really frustrated and motivated...

@doskabouter BTW where can I find the used URLs of the streams? Would like to use them as well in my TV Server IPTV

 

[doskabouter]

you can check the onlinevideos.log, they are present there.
but be aware that tvserver's iptv also uses mpurlsourcesplitter (or its predecessor) and has the same issues as onlinevideos when used

@doskabouter First I deactivated the MPURLSource Splitter plugin in TV Server.
Added the respective URLs from OnlineVideos log to TV Server IPTV card(s).
All the URLs from ARD Mediathek Live work, all the URLs from ZDF Mediathek Live do not work.
BTW: I added in total 4 IPTV cards to TV Server, but it seems TVServer uses only one card: When watching a program and start to record another, the watched program is turned off with message that there are not enough free IPTV cards - so I think there is work to do in TVServer

Depends a bit on what "doesn't work" means exactly but that zdf suffer from the same issues as in onlinevideos was to be expected since MPUrlSourceSplitter (and its predecessor MPIPTVfilter) is the cause of this issue.
And as for multiple tuners: sure you assigned those channels to all tuners?

Well, scanning does not find the URLs

And as for multiple tuners: sure you assigned those channels to all tuners?

Arrgh - forgot that - now assigned and it works - THX
