Iptv Simple Client M3u Playlist
Cristy Borovetz
In raspberry I waited for more than 40 minutes but the message "PVR Administrator is initializing - searching for client channels 0%" never comes out of it and if I try to click TV Kodi completely crashes being necessary to turn off the raspberry in the Source .. ..
Is there any way to "zero" the kodi so I can try to get it cleaned and see if it would solve the problem? nester case, which files should I delete (backing up before) so that the kodi will be zeroed as in a clean installation of the Batocera?
rrossilva Kodi in actual version 17.6 on 5.15 is in some bugs ...the tv chanles list dont open in PVR IPTV SIMPLE CLIENT , the 1080p videos are freezing the PI or in some cases the Kodi is exiting itself and returning to Emulastion station various times ....
it is strange that although raspberry has only 1GB of RAM and kodi should "run poorly or slowly" on this hardware, I realize that it is not usually slow .. on the contrary, it boots in a few seconds and works fine on the main interface, something that on these cheap BOX TVs (MXQ 4K and similar) is totally the opposite ...
in these cheap BOX TV Kodi takes almost 1 minute just to open the interface and it is very slow ... however, only in raspberry I am having this problem when opening the large channel list (47,903 Channels) ... it simply does not load my list ... I can wait for more than half an hour and it does not open ....
I believe that the kodi in the batocera of this version 5.15 is facing some problems of stability and performance, because never before it leaves alone, however now when reproducing video in 1080p in some cases it reproduces, and in others the kodi simply closes (black screen and back to Emulation Station) ... which indicates that there is something wrong with its performance.
The list of TV that I want to put on it loads normally on the PC with windows, although I know that an IPTV list with more than 47,000 channels will take a little while to load, this list usually loads on my PC kodi after 2 minutes ... As PI hardware is much lower than a PC's, I thought "I'll let it load for about 15 minutes and it should be ready" ... but not even after 40 minutes had it loaded.
I see the message "PVR Administrator is initializing - Searching for channels from 0% clients", but never goes out of this 0% and if I click on "TV" to open the channels Kodi completely stops being impossible to even leave it and it is necessary to disconnect the forced raspberry in the energy ...
Hi, I have a similar problem. Started yesterday using batocera. The system for retrogames is amazing, no issues at all. But with kodi I have this problem, I have a list with 2500 channels, it loads fine channels and EPG, but if i start a 1080p channel it freezes my Pi after a feel minutes and I need to unplug/plug the power.
When I run Kodi 17.6 on libreelec I don't see this issue. =/ Maybe a memory problem? (just 1G)
1 The list has reduced from 42.000 channels to 10.850 Channles (more small now)
2 I have entered in the ".kodi" folder and deleted this : In "Database" folder, i have deleted the "EPG11.db" and "TV29.db" ... so, i have entered in the "Addons_Data" folder and deleted files in subfolder "pvr.iptv.simple" - (two files , an .m3u and the "settings.xml".
3 I have configured the PVR IPTV SIMPLE CLIENT with the link of my list and selected "NO" to the option " Local Cache From m3u list" and "NO" for "Local Cache for EPG" ....
I am a little stumped. Every time it needs an addon it will tell you what it needs that I have noticed. It does not seem to be doing that in your case. It appears to be looking for an addon but it does not know what addon.
I have done some looking here today and see that pvr-iptvsimple is required but pvr-iptvsimple has other addon depends inputstream.ffmpegdirect, inputstream adaptive and inputstream rtmp of which inputstream.ffmpegdirect and inputstream rtmp you do not have.
I installed the addons in the 2 tarballs above and enable them
I put in the m3u playlist url in the pvr-iptvsimple addon
I had to reboot kodi for it to import all of the channels; which the process took some time
Assuming that the DVB frontend is tuned and locked on a digital signal, there will be data in MPEG-TS format flowing out from /dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr0. Almost always, there are several TV/radio channels on a single digital transmission signal: The data stream is used to pass several types of packets, which may contain MPEG video or audio data, or other related data.
Software demuxing is the preferred choice for the typical domestic use, as it allows viewing more than one TV program at a time (assuming that both programs are on the same digital stream). Hardware demuxing is useful for viewing (or recording) TV with command-line utilities (see these two posts for examples of command line sessions).
Command-line utilities (see this, this, and this) can indeed be used to hack together some very basic kit for watching TV, and they are priceless for understanding why things went wrong with the fancier tools (hint: Somehow things always get wrong when video is involved).
Now to the IPTV client: To start off, the IPTV client is given an initial playlist (as a file or a URL to download this playlist from). That playlist is an M3U file, with one or several URLs, usually a TV channel for each. When the client accesses one of these URLs to start showing a channel, it often receives another playlist, which redirects it to other URLs, which in turn might redirect it further, and so on. These playlists are often set up to allow the client to choose different paths, depending on desired bit rate, display resolution, encoding format etc.
Eventually, possibly after a few redirection hops, the client ends with receiving a playlist containing a list of chunks, so it has the information on where to fetch chunks of MPEG-TS segments from. It starts fetching these chunks, concatenates then, and plays the video stream.
A neat feature of DVB is that data for an Electronic Program Guide (EPG) is often embedded in the digital stream, so the name of the current program, along with a short description, is available when zapping to a new TV channel. As well as a TV guide to past and future programs, directly on the TV, shown neatly by the media center software.
The common format for exchanging EPG information in Linux is XMLTV, which as its name implies, is in XML format. Tvheadend exports it at :9981/xmltv or :9981/xmltv/channels (accessing the former will cause an HTTP 302 redirection to the latter).
Note that the long hex blob marked red above matches the tvg-id entry of Channel 10 in the playlist given above. This allows pairing between an MPEG-TS stream and its info in the XMLTV file, and hence displaying the current TV program info for its respective channel.
Kodi is a convenient front end for viewing TV on a media center computer, living room style. I suggest using the PVR IPTV Simple Client with a local file playlist, in particular because of the simplicity of this solution. And that it works so well.
