Thanks very much for this plugin, this is more of a question than an issue. I noticed when I was setting up an account in TVH for the NG plugin that only an admin account would work. Otherwise it would fail to list the channels. Is this by design or am I doing something wrong?

With the current version "Tvheadend 4.1-459 ~ g987dc11" I get back the error "JSON Request failed: 'utf8' codec can not decode byte". And the API version I had to change again to 18.
Can someone help me?

Hi,

I have set my ATV to use direct play. When I try to play the tvchannels from tvheadend I get an error instantly on the ATV .

Since DVB-S2 uses h264 it should be possible to play these channels directly without transcoding on the ATV?

This is found in the logs:

Hi,

If you don't like to show several "bouquets" in the PLEX, and only show 3 or 4 bouquets, you can hidde any tags that you don't like to show using the option INTERNAL inside the TVH. Nevertheless, this plugin will show all tags, also tags market as internal.

Here a simple modification that hides "bouquets" in Plex (tags in TVH) that are "internal" (HIDDEN):

Change the file "/Contents/Code/init.py" at line #193, change the code:
------------------------------8<----------------------------------------------
if debug == True: Log("Getting channellist for tag: " + tag['name'])
tagList.add(DirectoryObject(key=Callback(getChannels, title=tag['name'], tag=tag['uuid']), title=tag['name']))
else:
------------------------------8<----------------------------------------------

with this code:

------------------------------8<----------------------------------------------
if debug == True: Log("Getting channellist for tag: " + tag['name'])
if (tag['internal'] == False):
tagList.add(DirectoryObject(key=Callback(getChannels, title=tag['name'], tag=tag['uuid']), title=tag['name']))
else:
------------------------------8<----------------------------------------------

This "fixes" the problem!
Regards.

I ran tcpdump and saved to pcap during this. I then extracted the gzipped JSON response from the PCAP. The response looks clean, and processing it through a JSON validator shows it to be valid.

Any clue what could be going on here? There seems to be some type of problem with JSON.ObjectFromURL, however it's unclear what that could be. Maybe it cannot handle gzipped responses?

While using this plugin in PHT I see that I can toggle between the different audio tracks. (something I can't do in the web-browser)

Subtitles are somehow not passed through.
Is it possible to make subtitles selectable?

The simple alphabetical list gets rather long fast once you have several recordings for each show.

Hi, after I installed the newest build of tvheadend (3.9.1743) does the plex client on plays 1 sec of a stream. I get at the end "muxer reported errors".

There is some easy free Python code being uses in some of the other plugins to pull TVDB data.. by querying by the Show title in many cases it is easy to pull a fan art picture for the show, instead of displaying a giant version of the channel logo.

If the episode data is present in tvheadend it might be able to pull even more detailed data.

Hi

I set up this plugin and it works flawlessly when I use Chrome Browser (with or without custom profiles, with or without transcoding). However, when I try to start a channel or a recording on the Android app, it always comes up with an error message saying "lost connection to the plex server". But, I can watch "normal" Plex-content without any problems... Do you have any ideas?

Hi,

I'm trying to use this plugin with TVHeadend version 4.1.373 but I get an error saying there is an API version mismatch. Below is a copy/paste of my TVHeadend "serverinfo" file I downloaded from TVHeadend showing I am using API version 15, is there something I am doing wrong?

{"sw_version":"4.1.373","api_version":15,"name":"Tvheadend","capabilities":["caclient","tvadapters","satip_client","satip_server","imagecache","timeshift","trace","libav"]}

Any help would be appreciated
Thanks!

Any help or suggestions appreciated

Hi,

each time I try to access my TVH server I get this:

2017-01-03 23:34:01,612 (80a82c000) : INFO (__init__:132) - JSON-Request failed: JSON encoding error 2017-01-03 23:34:01,612 (80a82c000) : INFO (__init__:151) - Failed to fetch DVB services! 2017-01-03 23:34:01,613 (80a82c000) : INFO (__init__:242) - Could not create channellist! Showing error. 2017-01-03 23:34:01,617 (80a82c000) : DEBUG (runtime:924) - Response: [200] MediaContainer, 437 bytes

So far I do get the Channel Tags displaying correctly but unfortunately nothing else :-(

Having read previous issues could this be related to Plex JSON format or Python strings??

I configured the plugin. Unfortunately, when choosing. Higher resolution I get info that "cannot load m3u8 404".

The more it worries me when selecting a lower resolution player only loading and nothing plays
I have the last version of TVHeadend compiled from github

Hi, thanks for the great Plugin. This issue is probably not related to the plugin itself, but I hope to find some help here.
Everything works fine for me, except the most important part. When I open a channel the stream starts after a few seconds of buffering, but it's getting stuck after maybe 10-20 sec to buffer again. I tested the the LAN connection my TV uses with my Laptop and there it plays fine. Even via WiFi the stream is stable on my Laptop. I use the Samsung UE46F6470 as a client.
Does someone have any idea what I might tweak to get this running?
Best
Niels

Is there a way to make icon images shown on plex more small ?

When there is a mix of channels with icons and channels without icons, and Display Icons is set, the exception KeyError is thrown.

I've worked around this locally by replacing line 327-8 with:

    try:
            if Prefs['tvheadend_channelicons'] == True and channel['icon_public_url'].startswith('imagecache'):
                    icon = 'http://%s:%s@%s:%s%s%s' % (Prefs['tvheadend_user'], Prefs['tvheadend_pass'], Prefs['tvheadend_host'], Prefs['tvheadend_web_port'], Prefs['tvheadend_web_rootpath'], channel['icon_public_url'])
    except KeyError:
            pass

But there may be a more elegant solution.

I've tried everything to get subtitles selection from tvheadend to my Plex Media Server using this fabulous channel/plugin.

I use the default profile "pass" in my tvheadend-ng.bundle, and with that set, I suppose tvheadend will also pass the sub-streams.

That's in fact not working at all.

Instead I get AUDIO Unknown and SUBTITLES None. Is this a PMS or a plugin problem?

The stream works great in VLC btw.

Hello,

im using your plugin in rasplex.
it always plays the tvheadend stream directly. Which works perfect for local network.

But using your plugin from remote (rasplex) results in error because tvheadend server is not available.

Using your plugin from iOS or Android => PMS uses transcoding and everything works flawless.
Because it plays from PMS and not directly from tvheadend.

Is there a way to force transcoding for a specific device? e.g. Rasplex Raspberry?

Because no matter what i do Rasplex always plays directly from tvheadend.

regards
firsttris

Some of the other Plex PVR plugins have added recording controls, it would be nice to see them in the TVheadend one

Hello,
Can you recommend a 'stable' and working git commit (SHA) of tvheadend/tvheadend:master?

Many thanks.

getEpgGrid seems to be broken in latest commits. This leads to the following Error "Request failed! Please check channel settings and tvheadend status." Without showing any channels on plex webapp oder iphone/ipad app. Maybe it could be important for you, my EPG contains special characters like üöäß.

Revert back to Commit cb7a994 solved the issue so far.

My tvheadend is proxied through a https nginx box. As part of this setup, I use the /tv/ identifier in the URL which is set as the TVH_HTTP_ROOT in the Tvheadend configuration defaults (running Debian jessie).

The plugin for plex errors as it must assume the path is /, where it infact needs to have a base of /tv. If I put /tv on the port it works (config included below).

A new field to specify the TVH_HTTP_ROOT should be added to accommodate for this field (defaulting to /), or otherwise could utilise the htsp "hello" to retrieve the web root.

Hi,

I have installed the latest Version and I wount to transcode the TV Streams at the Plex Server, I have
checked MPEG-TS Pass-Through and the default profile is pass. But I can not get transcodet content. And I cann not set the Bandwith in the client.
Is ther some option to activate it?

When I start a tv stream on the Plex android app, it plays back for a few seconds and then stops (as though the video has ended). Oddly, if I use the same app to cast to my chromecast, it plays back without stopping but freezes every so often. Any idea how I can fix this?

My media server log displays these errors until the playback times out.
Guess something changed with how plex handles the stream from tvheadend.

Hi,

I'm using the latest Plex Home Theater and Plex Media Server and having the same issue as in #27.

I've tried this in PHT on OSX and in PHT on Rasplex and the can't play media error occurs. Everything works fine on Android and in Chrome. Any idea how I can help debug this further? This is what shows up in the logs:

I'm using HTS Tvheadend 3.9.2827g477feabtrusty and Plex Version 0.9.12.4 on FreeBSD

Please let me know if you need more information.

Thanks

Is there any way to make the quality better ?
Seems like plex is transcoding too low.

I am using tvheadend 4.1

{"sw_version": "4.1","api_version": 15,"name": "Tvheadend","capabilities": ["caclient","tvadapters","satip_client","satip_server","imagecache","timeshift","trace"]}

If I click on all channels or select a bouquet I get the error message "Request failed! Please check channel settings and tvheadend status."

Error:
I configured picons for the channels in tvheadend, The picons are shown in tvheadend, but not in Plex,

Reason:
The access for the path /imagecache is limited by tvheadend to authorized users. Since no authorization information is coded in the access path for picons, you get http 401 when no anonymous user exists for the IP of the Plex-Server.

Solution:
By configuration in tvheadend: Create an anonymous user (Username:* / Password:* / Network prefix 127.0.0.1/32 (when plex is running on the same server as tvheadend).

By tvheadend-ng (preferred): Pass HTTP basic authentication credentials in the URL for picons.

As discussed, a passthrough profile (remux, without transcoding) for Apple TV / PlexConnect would be really nice.

It works with the HDSurfer plugin, which uses VLC to remux the stream.

Hello,
i also wrote on plex forum.
When i try to retrieve channel list from tvheadend i got an error on the screen to check my configuration and in the log file i see these lines:

Tvheadend version 3.5.204~ge343bfd-dirty

Thank you for everything you can do

I'm currently unable to pull a channel list post update with Plex:
"Request failed! Please check channel settings and tvheadend status."

Here are the current versions I am using for Plex and tvheadend:
Plex: Version 0.9.16.2
tvheadend:
Version: 4.1.1692-1
Architecture: avoton
MD5: 8d3caf3370d338b551de00b846ba68b6
Changelog: Update to 4.1.1692

After cycling the Plex server, below is the log output from tvheadend-ng.

I tried rolling back to a different version of tvheadend and also the previous version of Plex, but am still seeing the same error.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. It was a great plugin when it was working!

Hi
I have
tvh version 3.4.28geb79aeetrusty
plex version 2.3.20.

I install the plugin in plex but when I try tu run it I have
Unknow error message.

What is the problem??

Thanks

Using latest unstable version of tvh and latest pms I get the error-message 'Error while opening file', selecting a channel to watch.
Environment: Mac mini with latest OSX
Stream channel directly via VLC from tvh works.
Any idea where I could investigate?

Hi,
thanks for this, I have big hopes ;) Unfortunately I can't get it to run...
Maybe something trivial, but I can't get around it. Have tried all variations of configuration data I could imagine, the plugin seems not to be able to contact tvheadends - it actually seems it cannot even communicate with the plex server (see log below).
This is on Ubuntu 14.04 with both plex-ms and tvheadends (3.9.1949~g38f73e1) on one machine. I am trying to start the plugin from a mac-client in the lan (browser interface using chrome). I always get "unknown error" before any contact to tvheadend is made. Here my log:

I recently updated Plex server to version 1.2.2.2857-d34b464 and this plugin no longer works for me, all channel browsing seems to work find but no streams seem to work. It seems to me that the Plex server is not even making the connection to the tvheadend server as nothing shows in the connections tab, not even for a second.

Hallo, schönes Plugin,
kann man das umbauen oder erweitern das auch Enigma2 Kanallisten eingebunden werden können zum streamen?

Sehr vielen Dank vorab.

Im getting configuration error! Please check the channel settings.

It's installed on Synology .
In TVheadend i have only configured IPTV channels

Can you help me please?

post update-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
With "Use new tag api" disabled I can open plugin, but I can't see channels

show me "Request Failed!, check channel settings and TVHeadend status"

trying disable "Force remuxed straming" but same error

Thanks!

Hey,
Streaming does not work on the new version 1.0.0.2261.

TV-Headend offers a new API version. The actual release does not support this version. Until I've checked the dependencies you habe to wait to update to the latest tvh.

Plugin works while watching from PC but not working when using IOS 9.3 or Android.
Is there any solution or option to use external Player such as VLC?

This message appear, when loading the list of channel tags

Configuration error! Please check the channel settings.

I think may be since the URL change for tags, in recent master versions of tvheadend.
The 'TVH Client' on iOS platform is also affected because of that same problem.

fix: andiwand@09c1017

I'm having a issue where the video stream through tvheadend-ng.bundle is unwatchable. The video lags freezes and stutters while the audio plays fine. The audio is not in sync with the video though.

My Setup is:

Plex Media Server (latest) running on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS in ESXI.
TVHeadEnd latest development build running on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS on dedicated mini itx intel i5 cpu.

Plex is working sound and can quite happy handle multiple streams at once to shared friends and family.
TVHeadEnd can also stream multiple HD satellite streams to clients on the network.

So I'm at a loss to see what is causing the issue. I would guess the issue is at the tvheadend transcoding end but I'm not sure how to prove this is the issue or figure out how to solve the issue.

Has anyone got any ideas?

Sorry for making a new topic, but since the other one is closed, I was hoping you could take another look into this problem.

#27

Can some one help me to setup

Hi,

After inputting the relevant login details (usr,pass,host,port) TVH-NG fails to login, it displays an "unknown error" message briefly.

TvHeadend latest version from Git running on Lubuntu 14.04
Plex Server latest running on same machine
TVH-NG sourced form unofficial appstore for plex

TvHeadend can be accessed using the credentials via web browser and an android app, with no problems.

Cheers for your efforts.
