Bouquet Maker Xtream - IPTV Bouquet Maker (new 2023)

BouquetMakerXtream (BMX) - v1.23

New files on post 1

Fixed an issue of deleting none bmx bouquets by accident if they contained the iptv name.

Undone some code to fix domain key crash - which should fix your error mj_84

Sorry about that, as I have been saying all week, seems I released some code that wasn't tested and production ready.

There is still a problem with this isn't there.
On openatv 7.4 if I create bouquets it deletes my ABM bouquets.
I don't know if this is my code causing the issue, or openatv.

I may have to load up 1.18 and see what that does

My IPTV name is called "MAIN" which is deleting
userbouquet.abm.sat_282_sky_uk.main.tv

Oh... that shouldn't happen.

It does it on create and update. Feck

I have still to try latest version but for me normally it would be ABM that would delete BMX or even old jedimaker bouquets. Even on openatv 7.3 or 7.4 as has been advised run ABM then BMX or Jedimaker then epgimporter in that order for autoupdating.

Ok I have booted into openatv 7.4 30th of august version and run BMX 1.21 no problems my sly bouquets are still there

will install latest BMX vesion and let you know what happens.

Update now will try 1.23 as 1,22 was not availble to download changes have been done when I have been trying to answer :)

Edit: just installed v1.23 no problems sly bouquets still there even did software update on openatv 7.4 no problems.

I had called my iptv name "main", which was deleting abm's main bouquet because it contained "main" in the name of it. That was the issue. My bad code.
Its fixed now.

And one person on openatv thinks that is the problem with graphical epg openatv or abm

I have a Vu+ Duo4K SE with 2 tuners:
- DVB-S NIM(45308X FBC) (DVB-S2X) - with 8 channels
- DVB-C NIM(BCM3158) (DVB-C) - with 8 channels

I have several DVB- S bouquets, one DVB-C bouquet and several IPTV bouquets.

Because it really has to do with the bouquet management, I would assume that the DVB-S, DVB-C or IPTV has no relation to this problem.

There is a problem with spaces in the bouquet name. The new current bouquet name is always the bouquet in use, but uses only the first word of this bouquet. Maybe this confuses the receiver and therefore creates a new bouquet number?

The other strange action is that you can only see this new current bouquet in the graphical EPG and the multi EPG (long-press EPG). The vertical EPG is OK and the bouquet list (TV key) is also OK.

But off subject he may be wrong

You did a great job with this plugin, but I get the error "no bouquet selected" when trying to create a bouquet from a github free list

the list I used is https://github.com/iptv-org/iptv/blob/master/streams/de.m3u if anyone can try it as well

Box is octagon sf8008 running OpenATV 7.4

no problems here have you checked infobar settings or tried another skin.

Neal-nollie · Sep 3rd 2024

Yeah tried a few different skins

reflashed seems ok now

Hey KiddaC, great work you are doing for the community, I would like to pick your brains for a minute.

When I download picons through your bouquet maker xtream, I get 466 picons in 10-15 mins (With no size or resolution restrictions)

When I download them through the old suls plugin, (same m3u) I get about 7400 in about 8 hours.

When I use the NextPVR windows app (same m3u), I get about 3050 in a few seconds.

Is there a stand alone script that can be used to do this independently of the plugin, I suspect the operation is too cpu intensive for the e2 box's so I would like to do it on a linux VM. Thanks again for your great work..

**esuo2** · Sep 4th 2024

Good to hear from you again buddy!

the limitation of most enigma2 boxes is it can only handle jgp or pngs. It cannot handle webp or svgs or gifs or avifs or any other image formats.
It also checks to see if png or jpg is in the picon url.
I also block picon domain that are slow or fail. I also dont follow redirects.

Creating a script or python code wouldnt be that difficult. You have 2 options. Read an xtream api. Read an m3u8 file. You can actually just write code for latter as you can download the get.php url of xtream lines and get the picon urls from that.

**KiddaC** · Sep 4th 2024

and just doing this very quickly in CHATGPT

given an m3u8 file in this format

#EXTM3U
#EXTINF:-1 tvg-id="" tvg-name="akaal channel" tvg-logo="https://funkymonkeybox.com:443/images/2ywfVvX9NdxdkaNToIh-ZQX0ZjwuoHCY9V-sM2f1y87mRiMtV3wcvAxQ_INXgk2RUjaNsvrU871c-o2spYF-hw.png" group-title="UK | Asian",akaal channel
http://iptv.net:80/user/pass/1065133
#EXTINF:-1 tvg-id="" tvg-name="GB News SD" tvg-logo="https://sm.imgix.net/21/13/gb-news.jpg?w=1200&h=1200&auto=compress,format&fit=clip" group-title="UK | News",GB News SD
http://iptv.net:80/user/pass/1060280

Write me a python script that will read each extinf line. Download the tv-logo and name the graphic the same as the tvg-name. Take the extension of the image from the tvg-logo. The tvg-logo might not end in the extension and could finish with a query string
Use requests library. Have a max timout of 10 seconds. if the image format is anything other than an SVG image. use pillow library to resize the images to 400 x 240 and convert to png.

Will give you something like this

can you do a similar thing in a bash script. but just download all the graphic files without resizing or converting

Bash

#!/bin/bash

# Function to download the image
download_logo() {
    tvg_name="$1"
    tvg_logo="$2"

    # Extract the file extension from the tvg-logo URL
    extension="${tvg_logo##*.}"
    extension="${extension%%\?*}"  # Remove query string if present

    # Default to .jpg if no valid extension is found
    if [[ -z "$extension" || "$extension" == "$tvg_logo" ]]; then
        extension="jpg"
    fi

    # Replace characters that are invalid in filenames
    filename="${tvg_name//\//_}.${extension}"

    # Download the image using curl
    curl -s --max-time 10 -o "$filename" "$tvg_logo"
    if [[ $? -eq 0 ]]; then
        echo "Downloaded: $filename"
    else
        echo "Failed to download: $tvg_name ($tvg_logo)"
    fi
}

# Read and parse the m3u8 file
process_m3u8_file() {
    while IFS= read -r line; do
        if [[ $line == \#EXTINF* ]]; then
            # Parse the tvg-name and tvg-logo
            tvg_name=$(echo "$line" | grep -oP 'tvg-name="\K[^"]+')
            tvg_logo=$(echo "$line" | grep -oP 'tvg-logo="\K[^"]+')

            # Download the logo
            download_logo "$tvg_name" "$tvg_logo"
        fi
    done < "$1"
}

# Path to your m3u8 file
m3u8_file="channels.m3u8"

# Process the file
process_m3u8_file "$m3u8_file"

**KiddaC** · Sep 4th 2024

And I am not saying the code above will work, I haven't tried it.
but showing that in principle it is pretty easy to download SNP picons from an m3u8 file

**thatfellow** · Sep 4th 2024

Thanks for that m8, I wont lie, I danced with the enemy (ChatGPT) before I asked on here, all the code it provided (bash & Python) failed to download. I spent about 20 mins adding debug log outputs & it became so bloated & useless that I just surrendered. I must admit though, the code looked beautiful, ha ha..

It Just didn't work..

Ill have another crack at it now. One thing that might be relevant, I cannot manually download the png from the tvg-logo hyperlink within the m3u..

eg

Code

tvg-logo="https://blahblahblah.com:443/images/FNDxejZFkUGGY-pZy9Xc3nasn6QOS3py0OHRUeKJf2rxuqT8VjtF16I35wd54D7P.png"

I just get a 404 not found..

That's what I was not so sure about, I suspected that your plugin did some kind of handshake with the server using the user/pass from the m3u file..

Or... should I be able to download the picon directly from the tvg-logo hyperlink?

lupak · Sep 13th 2024

I have a problem, this plugin blocks my decoder, the name of the plugin appears on the top left, I can only control the volume with +, -, mute and the standby button, whatever else I press a red x comes out, telnet works. To use the decoder, I have to turn it off from the rear switch. Does anyone know how to solve it?
