Note on running multiple instances of telly

There are three things that make up a "key" for a given Telly Virtual DVR:

Device-ID [required], Device-UUID [optional], and port [required]

When you configure your additional telly instances, change:

the Device-ID [above] AND

the Device-UUID [above, if you're entering one] AND

the port [below in the "Web" section]

THIS SECTION IS REQUIRED

[IPTV] Streams = 1 # number of simultaneous streams that the telly virtual DVR will provide

This is often 1, but is set by your iptv provider; for example,

                        # Vaders provides 5

Starting-Channel = 10000 # When telly assigns channel numbers it will start here XMLTV-Channels = true # if true, any channel numbers specified in your M3U file will be used.

FFMpeg = true # if this is uncommented, streams are buffered through ffmpeg;

                        # ffmpeg must be installed and on your $PATH
                        # if you want to use this with Docker, be sure you use the correct docker image

if you DO NOT WANT TO USE FFMPEG leave this commented; DO NOT SET IT TO FALSE

THIS SECTION IS REQUIRED

[Log] Level = "info" # Only log messages at or above the given level. [debug, info, warn, error, fatal] Requests = true # Log HTTP requests made to telly

THIS SECTION IS REQUIRED

[Web] Base-Address = "192.168.1.2:6077" # Set this to the IP address of the machine telly runs on Listen-Address = "0.0.0.0:6077" # this can stay as-is

Password = "XML-Identifier" # From http://iptv-epg.com/[XML-Identifier].xml

NOTE: THOSE KEY NAMES DO NOT MAKE SENSE FOR THIS PROVIDER

THIS IS JUST AN IMPLEMENTATION DETAIL. JUST GO WITH IT.

For this purpose, IPTV-EPG does not have a "username" and "password", HOWEVER,

telly's scaffolding for a "Named provider" does. Rather than special-casing this provider,

the username and password are used to hold the two required bits of information.

THIS IS JUST AN IMPLEMENTATION DETAIL. JUST GO WITH IT.

**Additional information:**

chazlarson commented 4 years ago

It looks like that epg.xml file is malformed. It shouldn’t start with . What does the file look like if you retrieve it from that machine?

junkyhlm commented 4 years ago

I didn't get a EPG link. It's only a 24 hour trial account. I wanted to check if I was working before subscribing.

chazlarson commented 4 years ago

Delete the example epg link from the config.

EPG = "http://myprovider.com/epg.xml"

Telly’s trying to retrieve and parse that as an EPG file.

chazlarson commented 4 years ago

Actually, the epg link for that provider is probably http://nsclient.xyz:2095/xmltv.php?username=REDACTED&password=REDACTED

junkyhlm commented 4 years ago

I actually tried that link formatting but with no luck. I'll try to delete the EPG link and see how it acts then. Thanks for your input
