SSDP announcement is empty

[grasduinen]

The VLC player show the SATPI server, but not the complete SSDP announcement. The SSDP fields are empty. If I open the SatPI.xml file, is show that it is not well formed. Maybe the mash up of XML causes the incomplete SSDP announcement? SATIP_SSDP.pdf

Hi @grasduinen

The SatPI.xml is not the description file, it is used for the Web Interface.

The file you are looking for is desc.xml: http://ip.of.the.server:8875/desc.xml

Hi @grasduinen

I don't think you will find more information as shown in the PDF

Hi @grasduinen

I don't think you will find more information as shown in the PDF

How can I refer to the location of channellist.m3u ? It now shows an default value : http://www.satip.info/Playlists/auto.m3u

Hi @grasduinen

Well it seems there is something not going right with VLC and parsing the satip:X_SATIPM3U

[grasduinen]

@Barracuda09 I've replaced the %1 - %5 in desc.xml with fixed paths, now the port 8875 is used. In the m3u file the %1 is also not including the rtsp 8554 port. Now VLC is reading the channellist;

I'm starting with command: ./satpi --rtsp-port 8554 My Panasonic TV with SATIP client is discovering the SSDP / server, but the channels are not discovered (even with fixed paths).

@grasduinen

Could you please explain a bit more what you changes?

Or attach the desc.xml you use now here?

The m3u file will currently only replace %1 with IP address. This I can change but have to parse which protocol is used (http or rrsp) to add correct port number.

Thanks for you report an time

@Barracuda09 Testing your last code compiled on an Raspberry with DVB-T2 HAT ; I've adjusted the following part in desc.xml;

http://192.168.147.250 **:8875** /index.html **DVBT2-1** http://192.168.147.250 **:8875** /channellist.m3u My channellist.m3u ; #EXTM3U #EXTINF:0,1.

@grasduinen

I have tried with VLC 3.0.11 which here works with the 'default' desc.xml. But there was some weird in the in the UPnP preferences which I had to set to 'ServerList' and back to 'Auto' and now it finds it.

The M3U file I have to add the port number of http or rtsp. I have two options:

1. rtsp://%1:%2/?.... %1 will be replaced by IP address and %2 will be replaced by rtsp port http://**%1**:**%3**/?.... %1 will be replaced by IP address and %3 will be replaced by http port
2. or make it more automatic by parsing and checking the protocol that is used etc.

[grasduinen]

I'm on the same VLC version, changing to serverlist did the trick. Location is now pointing to the channellist (and channels expand)! Option 2 sounds more solid, but both would be fine for me.

Do you have an suggestion on the Panasonic TV, why it's not finding the channels?

[Barracuda09]

I do not own a Panasonic TV but here is an suggestion you can try https://github.com/Barracuda09/SATPI/issues/62#issuecomment-470699255

But I do not think it is working with multicast.. I don't know if unicast is supported with the Panasonic

[9000h]

for unicast satip the Panasonic need to do a channel scan on for the delivery system, you cannot provide a channel list via the server and you cannot mix delivery systems.

Hi @9000h ,

[...] you cannot mix delivery systems.

That's the reason to use the "channel-remaping" functionality. I'm using it to remap DVB-T muxes to some DVB-S frequencies.

I hope @Barracuda09 will fix soon the Child-PIPE bugs, as I want to remap some HLS inputs too! Regards.

Could you post an example of your HLS mapping setup? Thanks!

Hi, I do not use SATPI at all, sorry. CU

[Barracuda09]

This should already be implemented.
