  • DVBsnoop EIT to XML to get EPG for channels

    If the full stream, or at least all of the audio, video and encryption stuff is included for stream relay to work, are you sure the rest of the data is removed?

    Try running dvbtee like I was, but use one of the links you guys have in your special bouquets for iCAM.


    Code
    curl <iCAM stream relay url> | dvbtee/dvbtee -e -t10 -j


    Also, if you can enable a sat>IP server in e2, then it should be everything. I don't see how a client could work properly if it stripped everything out.

    I wonder why you would need to patch drivers for iCAM on e2?

    On PC we just patch libraries (libdvbcsa ) and software to support the non dvb standard.

    No drivers are touched.

    Doesn't e2 use the same libraries, or an equivalent?

  • DVBsnoop EIT to XML to get EPG for channels

    Is the URL you guys use for iCAM stream relay not the full ts?

  • DVBsnoop EIT to XML to get EPG for channels

    I just came across this project: https://github.com/mkrufky/libdvbtee

    It might be what you need?


    Not sure if its capable of getting more detailed info though... but does anyone actually read descriptions?

  • OSCam-ICam For SKY IT, UK, DE

    Quote from robby2k9

    Anyone else lost London Live using Oscam & an expired white sky card?

    I lost it recently & a friend has confirmed that his has stopped working too.

    If anyone has a fix (or an explantaion of what's changed) please let me know.

    Same for me.

    I did see that my expired card cleared a discovery channel briefly though!

    In the log that showed the ECM's coming from a friends share, there were a couple of instances where it says the ECM's was found from my card.

    No idea what's going on.

    I think people know how webgrab works but people don't want to use it because of its closed source paywalled encrypted ini bs.

    The grabbers I posted are 100% opensource, community driven and already have huge support from the IPTV community.

    Us (the sat community) teaming up with them would be much more beneficial than running separate projects.

    It was just a suggestion.

    Sorry for going off topic, but as you can see, other agree.

  • Sourcing and translating Epg data chat thread

    The way I would do it is have the grabbers installed and run locally on each users device.

    This way users can decide which sites to grab, how many days to grab and how often.

    Not only would users get more customisation, but also no one would need to host anything.

    Basically build something like what I built (EPG-Monkey), but as an e2 plugin.

    Its not the end of the world if we couldn't persuade the iptv-org team to incorporate service refs in their database.

    But an externally hosted file would need even more maintaining because the iptv-org team did/do like to change channel names and channel ids.

    So not only would we need to maintain service refs, but also the channel edits they make.

    If they gave us the go ahead we could even see about creating a GitHub action on their repo that automatically generates the xml file whenever the database is updated.


    I know people like Doglover have a forum thread to report issues and fixes but the system the iptv-org team have on GitHub is so much better.

    If you try to make a new issue on their GitHub you will see what I mean.

    And of course there are pull requests on GitHub.


    Edit: I asked the question here: https://github.com/iptv-org/database/issues/4953 Go show support :)

  • Sourcing and translating Epg data chat thread

    The instructions to run the grabbers are on the page I linked.

    I imagine for enigma 2 its better to make a plugin which lets you select which guides you want, how many days to grab, how often to run etc.

    My experience with e2 is none existent, but you can take a look at a python project I made for PC here: https://github.com/Chris230291/EPG-Monkey

  • Sourcing and translating Epg data chat thread

    Quote from jenseneverest

    Great link,

    I Think we had spoken about this at some point ? I didn't realise how complete that site is, looks like you can grab data from all sorts of sites and possibly change language to suit if required? I have not had a chance to try it.....

    It is fairly easy to build an xml to map the data (channel name) to your required service reference, for use on e2, for either sat, cable, IPTV, etc etc :thumbs up:


    Yes this is the one.

    There is language selection for sites that support it.

    Its important that whatever data is required to create a xml map for enigma2 (service ref?) is incorporated in their database.

    The reason for this is that if they decide to change a channel ID or channel name, it is still linked to the data required to make the xml map file.

  • Sourcing and translating Epg data chat thread

    There is a good source of open source EPG grabbers here: https://github.com/iptv-org/epg

    They maintain a database that maps EPG data to IPTV channels : https://github.com/iptv-org/database

    You could ask them if they would let us (the sat community) add service refs to their database.

    This way we can generate xml map files that support their grabbers.

    They have a huge following, its all open source and I think all working together is better than having separate projects.


    I considered asking them myself but opted not to because I don't use engima2 and I don't know exactly what's involved.

    If enigma2 was supported I could come up with some way of translating it and adding support for TVHeadend using the API.
