In Topic: VOD number seek disables channel number zapping if IPTV channel URL is down

3 November 2024 - 18:06

I agree littlesat, VOD seem to be present only in channel lists supplied by "special" IPTV providers.

 

The side effect of VOD number button seek is mainly that when a publicly available IPTV channel in a bouquet is down, then you can only exit the black screen using UP/DOWN and OK which are not familiar steps to some users, they are used to press 1 to go back to the first channel.

 

So if others do not mind, maybe the commit https://github.com/O...8d7c44d4ad8ee17 could be reverted to restore universal number zapping.


In Topic: VOD number seek disables channel number zapping if IPTV channel URL is down

Thank you all for the replies and the contributions to the image!

What exactly needs to be fixed?

For example, userbouquet.favourites.tv

#NAME Favourites
#SERVICE 1:0:19:283D:3FB:1:C00000:0:0:0::Das Erste HD
#DESCRIPTION Das Erste HD
#SERVICE 4097:0:1:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:http%3a//distribution.bbb3d.renderfarming.net/video/mp4/bbb_sunflower_1080p_60fps_normal.mp4:bbb_sunflower_1080p_60fps_normal.mp4
#DESCRIPTION bbb_sunflower_1080p_60fps_normal.mp4

Channel number 1 is 19.2 east satellite channel Das Erste HD and number 2 is a VOD file with a URL ending in mp4.

The first problem is that if you select number 2, then you can seek within the streaming mp4 with 1,4,7 and 3,6,9 like a recording and you can no longer press number 1 to go back to Das Erste HD. It is acceptable for those that have VOD on their channel lists but for those that do not, it overrides default zapping behaviour.

A second problem is that because the code in servicemp3.cpp assumes all 4097 URLs are seekable, if you zap to an IPTV channel which is not working, you can no longer zap to another channel using number buttons but only with channel selection up/down arrow buttons.

 

Possible solutions could be either

  • disable VOD number seek entirely
  • Move it to long button press but it could be annoying to long press 3, 6 or 9 multiple times to seek
  • Move it to the two << REW/FFW >> buttons only and use middle time skip config.seek.selfdefined_46.value
  • Make it a configurable option defaulting to disabled so that those that have VOD on channel lists can enable
  • Improve detection of VOD in channel service reference either in InfoBarGenerics.py or servicemp3.cpp maybe by searching for channel 4097 URLs ending in mp4/mkv.

 

In addition there is no way to determine if a 'stream' might be step-skippable.

Usually VOD end in .mp4 or .mkv like this

#SERVICE 4097:0:1:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:http%3a//distribution.bbb3d.renderfarming.net/video/mp4/bbb_sunflower_1080p_60fps_normal.mp4:bbb_sunflower_1080p_60fps_normal.mp4

so maybe by detecting channel service reference 4097 URLs ending in mp4/mkv.


In Topic: USB naar ethernet t.b.v. Vu+ solo4K

23 June 2024 - 13:54

Ik heb 30 dagen om het ding terug naar de winkel te brengen. Als er een andere is, waarvan je weet dat die wel werkt op de vu solo 4k, dan ruil ik hem gewoon om voor die andere.

De ASIX AX88179/178A-gebaseerde USB 3.0/2.0 Gigabit Ethernet-apparaten zijn opgenomen in kernel-module-ax88179-178A voor Vu+ Solo 4K en zal waarschijnlijk werken, maar ik heb ze niet getest, dus er is geen garantie:

17EF:304B ThinkPad OneLinkDock USB GigaLAN
04E8:A100 Samsung USB Ethernet Adapter AA-AE2N12B 
0DF6:0072 Sitecom USB 3.0 to Gigabit Adapter
2001:4A00 D-Link DUB-1312 rev A1 
0B95:178A ASIX AX88179 10/100/1000
0B95:1790 ASIX AX88178A 10/100/1000

U zult waarschijnlijk de D-Link DUB-1312 rev A1 gemakkelijker vinden.

Voer het in opdracht uit voordat u het aansluit:

opkg install kernel-module-ax88179-178a-3.14.28-1.8

Als u het probeert, alsjeblieft schrijf dan de resultaten zodat anderen kunnen profiteren.
