live TV for all rk3188 using XBMC and tvheadend

[JustMe0815]

Hi Dennis,

i have exact the same message in tvheadend.
There is nothing with your modules, if they are properly loaded, because kernel is also 3.0.6+
lsmod shows that all modules loaded and dmesg shows DVB: registering adapter 0 frontend 0.
I think there is a problem with permissions and wasser has to fix it in his next release, if he can.

Regards
Daniel

weird, asked over in the ROM thread, maybe he has an idea

H, Taki.

This weekend I tried again to configure my Minix Neo X7.

I have flash stock rom (010 versión, last) with XMBC 13.1 for minix (there is a apk file in minix neo x7's support web page), load the drivers (IT9135) and put your 20140620 TVHEADEND versión

With other versions I always get "connection lost" in XBMC.

But when I put your 20140620 versión, XBMC reboots. And tvheadend front end doesn't work

Is there any log that I can check and put here to get some help ?

I dont mind to get the last versión of tvheadend, but where can I find any information about "conection lost" in XBMC ?

Thanks a lot.

Best regards,

Hi Taki,

Thanks a lot for your help.

I decided to begin again, so I reset minix.

I have 010 versión

Install "first post" files and dvb-usb-it9135-01.fw and dvb-usb-it9135-02.fw

The 02dvb init.d file is like your post 06-20-2014, 06:24 AM in order to save config files in internal memory (see later)

Install Uni_init.apk

REBOOT and my "su" and "dmesg | grep dvb" show this:

usb 2-1.2: dvb_usb_v2: found a 'ITE 9135 Generic' in warm state
usb 2-1.2: dvb_usb_v2: will pass the complete MPEG2 trasnport stream to the software demuxer
usb 2-1.2: dvb_usb_v2: PID filter enabled by module option
usb 2-1.2: dvb_usb_v2: 'ITE 9135 Generic' successfully initialized and connected
usbcore: registrered new interface driver dvb_usb_it913x
usbcore: registrered new interface driver dvb_usb_af9015

dmesg | grep tvh:
NOTHING

Open localhost:9981 in CHROME
Show perfectly.
Config in web config page of tvheadend:
DVB inputs: select adapter "ITE 9135 Generic_1"
Enabled: click it , so .... YES
save button
Idle scanning is yes by default
close device handle whne idle is NO by default
the other options: default
add dvb network by location .... it finds 37 services in 12 muxes.
map dvb services to channels
save again this "window"
in Services tab apears all dvb channels that "i want".
in channel/epg also
recording tab: recording system path: I put /mnt/sdcard (only to check) and SAVE
timeshift: enabled: NO (default)
STATUS TAB:
Adapters: ITE 9135 Generic_1 /dev/dvb/adapter0, currently tuned to DTTV: 834,000 kHz, Bandwidth 512Kb/s Bit error rate 639976 , an so on
If i click play in any channel, I get a message that I dont have VLC Mozille pligin for your browser
I can see also EPG

dmesg | grep tvh:
NOTHING

Terminal emulator: why can I see anything about tvheadend ? Do i have to write any other command ?

I have installed VLC for Android Beta
Web page "disappears" so I have to reboot, this never happens with clean rom. (may be the reset is isnt a full reset, so I left some libraries of your tvheadend 20062014\system\lib in firmware lib.)

Settings has been saved, but not settings of recording tab system path.

All the channels are there.

The same, I click "play", and can't see anything because i dont have the plugin.

Launch XBMC Minix Edition, configure tvheadend as livetv (xbmcminix-armeabi-v7a_13.1_3.apk that is in minix oficial web page)

Enabled

Power saving enabled: NO, (dafualt)

TVHEADEND HTSP CLIENT 1.9.27

I dont remember when , but others roms( QSv2) once i could see channels (Little time) in xbmc.

Put thheadend of your last version:

first 23062014 new exec binary tvheadend

http://www74.zippyshare.com/v/57559129/file.html

REBOOT again

Now, I can connect with localhost:9981

I will reinstall a clean 010 versión room and root it again.

But I want to know:

what commands I need to check if dvb and thheadend is well "done" ? I want to know if is a dvb problem, tvheadend problem, or xbmc problem.
could i record directly with thheadend web page instead with xbmc ?
Is there any other program that I can use to see if tvheadend is working or not ?

Thanks a lot.

./data/tvheadend -d --stderr Enable debug on stderr
./data/tvheadend -s --syslog Enable debug on stderr

I'll consider it, but at the moment that option (as I've already said) is not intended to be set permanently. If you really need to set it permanently then you have the option by setting the appropriate command line options, but I'm rather concerned about it being permanently set through the UI.
Look at output from --help, and specifically the --debug and --trace options.
Select --stderr, -l OR -s by default (for compatibility) will always add the equivalent of --debug all. Though you can override with --debug option.
unfortunately lestest compiled tvheadend give me [ ERROR] tcp: bind: *: Address already in use
and no record save tuner setup and no usable diseq options.
lates git changed alot of devolping. check this

http://localhost:9981/simple.html

Permission to access video adapters

In order for Tvheadend to control video adapters on the system it must be granted access to those devices. Most systems have a 'video' group with write access to the video adapter devices. When Tvheadend is started as a daemon (if Tvheadend is installed from a distribution package this is most likely the way it is) it will change its primary group to 'video' in order to access these groups. If your system is configured in a different way you can either change the group membership of the video adapters (/dev/dvb, etc) or reconfigure the Tvheadend start up parameters.
If Tvheadend is started without the '-f' argument it will not demonize nor change its primary UID/GID. Rather it will run with the permissions granted to the user executing the binary. If that's the case you must make sure the current user is granted with access to the video devices.

I compiled latest tvheadend. end of the work that support libav. but dont work transcoding on android. but sharpened mpeg2 tv channel. no more connections lost. can you pass video add on and live tv (no need press the stop key) obviously tvheadend works on android perfectly.

Just compile with 'libav', transcoding would not work. To enabled transcoding, you need to edit source code.
=========
line 116, src/plumbing/transcoding.c

uint32_t transcoding_enabled = 0;
=========
'1' is enable the transcoding.
