Thanks, just trying to understand a user's problem that he said started after many years. I noticed that he had t7qam64 in his stored scanning info and I don't see that in my /sys/features Would that cause any problems?

Martin

Ok, it just doesn't seem logical that the scan and http play work but the rtp logic doesn't.

Martin

Looks like the problem is more limited than I thought t8dvbt does seem to work with auto.


hdhomerun_config 172.16.3.37 set /tuner0/channel auto:585500000

hdhomerun_config 172.16.3.37 get /tuner0/status
ch=auto:585500000 lock=t8dvbt ss=100 snq=100 seq=100 bps=26181632 pps=0


Do I have to set ...

Could it be auto is broken? Comparing things with the working http video I tried t7dvbt and auto7t and they work?


hdhomerun_config 172.16.3.37 set /tuner0/channel auto:585500000

hdhomerun_config 172.16.3.37 get /tuner0/status
ch=auto:585500000 lock=none ss=100 snq=0 seq=0 bps=0 pps=0

Has there been an any change in rtp streaming? The code which has worked in the past to support gettingg the EPG sets this

OK I noticed on DVB-T scans that it looked to be based on sid:tsid:onid so interesting it is NZ specific.

For DRM-free ATSC 3 which I can't test in Canada, I assume the LCN is the base channel, hopefully the ATSC names the HDHR return will match.

Martin

In my region (the southeastern US), it returns guide data for every channel listed in my lineup which hasn't been disabled. That is, if a channel is enabled and it has guide data in the HDHomeRun app, my script returns the same.


I agree in my region in Ontario Canada is is perfect too. I ...

How complete is the guide data? Looking at a New Zealand DVB-T sample it didn't have 50% of the channels the HDHR detected.

Martin

Thanks it happened again and I did need the force not none before clearing the target and the channel.

Martin

As a follow up I could connect to the HDHR and BDA could still control and stop them, but that this should be able to be done with hdhomerun_config

Martin

Last night I was was doing some BDA development and I mustn't have done a clean shutdown so this morning I see steady UDP/RTP traffic from a HDHR to my Windows PC and booting the Windows PC doesn't stop it

with the signal of the ATSC 3.0 channel being encrypted the broadcasters are in violation of both the emergency alert system and educational/informational rules established by the FCC.


Old analog TV's and capture cards don't receive ATSC 1.0 so that rule would apply to compatible TV receivers ...

They did give direction in this thread viewtopic.php?t=77340 although I don't know if they will have an account based solution by early 2024.

Thanks for that, as long as you don't use MV as your identifier for non-movies it probably isn't going to cause a problem. Is there sample JSON anywhere?

Martin

Two ideas come to mind...

1) App could search the category tags for the following categories we use regardless of the location in the list:
Series, Movie, News, Special, Sport, Shop, Audio, Adult

2) We could add an attribute to the category tag to indicate the high level category vs genre.
