I'm using the format described in the readme, however I cannot select channels via command line. If I use playlist mode and create a playlist it works, however I'm making a frontend that launches VLC on the specific channel.

This works:

vlc http://media:media@media:9981/stream/channel/18fd35078f95ad0ea95124e48ca5497d

And shows the channel.

Using the VLC GUI and setting the port/username/password then view / playlist / tvheadened HTSP also works.

However, I can't get this working via command line:

This command:

vlc htsp://media:media@media:9982/18fd35078f95ad0ea95124e48ca5497d

Shows

and TVHeadend output is:

Are the channel IDs different for HTSP? If so where do I get them from?

Never mind, I realise this is a different channel ID than the ones used by HTTP :)
