Could ffmpeg help instead of gstreamer, in streaming with app? Server profiles oddly don't matter as videos or live-tv wont play. Tried .mp4 and transcoding server profiles.

Finnish translation complete.

Hi! I cannot stream my tv channels...:-(
Wich are the settings/codec usefull?

Termitebug's picture

Is this a bug preventing playback?
[W] unknown:215 - file:///usr/share/harbour-tvhclient/qml/pages/EventsListPage.qml:215: TypeError: Type error
[D] expression for script:251 - Warning: Slider.maximumValue needs to be higher than Slider.minimumValue

The "bug" is only at the loading of the page, when current  position and duration are still have value 0.

Thank you for working EPG software at this stage of app! Are there any "superuser" guides of how-to-build codecs from sources? Git's? I would like this app evolve as my daily Live TV driver.

Thanks for your feedback!

At the moment there is no package for mpeg-ts available as far as i know.
It was on my ToDo list to build that myself, but I never made it.
Maybe in the future, if my daily work leaves me enough time ;-)

Oh!!! thanks

Hi black sheep!
What codecs are needed for streaming?

black_sheep_dev's picture

This depends. What you need e.g. for SD channels is MPEG-TS.

Very nice! Setting up an unauthenticated user on the server turned out to be quite easy: create user * with password * and limit access to the local network (in my case 192.168.0.0/24).
However, authentication could work in the server string (Kodi and VLC can access the tuners this way) if the syntax check was disabled:
http://user:pass@server
or
http://user:pass@server:port

Thanks for the tip. It seams to work. I will include this in the next release.
