Comment (by primijos@…):
Just to add some more info: I'm not quite sure this is only an internal
player issue. Since IPTV is not working for me, and I'm now using 0.28
(devel), I've doing some experiments with the new "External Recorder" in
order to feed IPTV streams to mythtv:
My first test was using udpxy to get the IPTV streams by using a ruby
script as External Recorder. Myth was able to save the stream and playback
was OK.
Please note that this has been just a single/simple test (less than a
minute long video), and I've not tested LiveTV, just scheduled recording.
So, as mythtv is able to play the stream OK when feed as a simple TS
through udpxy, I'm wondering whether this issue is a BE/Internal player
combination. I mean: perhaps the BE, when extracting the TS from the
RTP/UDP/Whatever packets, generates a not-so-beautiful-for-the-internal-
player stream that, who knows why, VLC/mplayer can, some how, play?
In order to try this without External Recorder support, the best option
would probably be just record an IPTV stream to file using vlc, udpxrec,
mplayer, etc. and copy it over one of the mythtv recordings, to try to
play it (or use mythavtest? I'm not sure about that, I believe that some
tests I did at some point showed up mythavtest being able to play stream /
stream types that the internal player wasn't able to play [raw (no HLS)
hhttp streams?])
Just an idea.
Best,
Jose
