Hey mcheng89, here is an interesting thing done to eliminate the need for VLC and just use FFMPEG directly in your PVR server.

Do you mean premium channels or encrypted channels (almost every channel is encrypted, not all are premium)? If you mean premium channels then you're out of luck - those only work in WMC. Premium channels (flagged as CCI 1 by your content provider) require a certification process to decrypt which costs something like $10,000 and thus these only work in WMC. Anything marked CCI 0 (copy freely) should work properly.

I did write the server to use ffmpeg at one point. I actually fixed some transcoding issues (patched vlc transcode dll) for tv commercials in VLC, and I assume they might exist in ffmpeg still.

That's good to hear that you are back.

I could give you a list to work on

Let me know what you want!

---

Todo:
infinitv 6 support
remove unused channel group code
cleanup some transcoding code for commercials

I'll read the other posts I missed tomorrow.

Here is a couple things that would be nice to have

1) Linux support for servers and NAS
2) Edit the channel lineup in the webui
3) TV channel logos

Other than that, I would say going back to FFMPEG in your server should help reduce dependencies on 3rd party software of another 3rd party software. VLC is nice but when running a headless server, it only complicates things and such unless VLC can run headless without the GUI and such.

Yes I have the latest firmware installed *20130328*, I get a lineup.json file when I run http://<hdhomerun ip>/lineup.json?show=unprotected. I deleted the ChannelMap-HDHomeRunPrime.csv and opened the mc2xml but still getting the can not load channel list error

Issue resolved in pm.

having exact same issue.....

vlc doesnt run headless right now when you start a stream?

2) From time to time if I change to a channel that I do not subscribe to the app will crash and leave me at the add-on page in XBMC where the app seems to not be completely closed.  Many times I have to press escape or "x" to close the add-on.  Sometimes I'm left closing and restarting xbmc.

I'll look into this.

How did you resolve this?

[captaintrap]

this seems to be the most recent project going on with infinitv m card support. i ran a search through this thread for windows 8 and found nothing. I am running:

- windows 8 x64 pro with no windows media center add on installed,
-infinitv cablecard tuner
-optimum m card activated (464 channels found)

Is WMC required to get this running? If no, I will start from page 1 to get your plugin installed. Sorry as im very new to this and super frustrated.

How did you resolve this?

Goto http://<hdhomerun ip>/lineup.html?show=all and click the detect channels button. Then wait about 10 minutes and try again

It works without WMC. I was able to get a test build running on my macbook a while back

Not much development today. I'll try to put more time into this this week. Going to sleep for now.

Searched the thread and didn't see any information about support for the DCR-2650. Will this solution work for this device? Thanks in advance.

Edit: Well ...it's seems i'm still getting the "Error with write Permission....please read the install guide....permission denied c:\program files (x86)\XB...' error when I go to run the plugin.

I'm on frodo 12.2
