    may a side question, why would you need a newer vlc ?

    as note, its the last option you should choose in terms of issues for remuxing ...

    vlc seems to be working fine but throws a lot of errors, e.g.

    2020-12-09 02:32:54 [xTeVe] Streaming Status:      Receive data from VLC
    2020-12-09 02:32:54 [xTeVe] VLC log:               [0000563efd486500] main interface error: no suitable interface module
    2020-12-09 02:32:54 [xTeVe] VLC log:               [0000563efd487c20] main interface error: no suitable interface module
    2020-12-09 02:32:54 [xTeVe] VLC log:               [0000563efd487c20] dummy interface: using the dummy interface module...
    2020-12-09 02:32:55 [xTeVe] Streaming Status:      Buffering data from VLC

    And why use? My ipTV service has recently changed something, and as a result it errors out when using the xTeVe buffer with Emby:

    2020-12-09 00:00:10 [xTeVe] Buffer: true [xteve]
    2020-12-09 00:00:10 [xTeVe] Buffer Size: 1024 KB

    vlc is the only thing that works for it. They say they only changed dns, but it's broken the service for Emby (all my other clients work fine, Emby is the only one using xteve).

    If you feel like you have not been treated fairly, I apologize for that and suggest perhaps a different server solution would be better for you to be involved with.

    This is quite the statement for a "mea culpa" thread, comes across as "sorry, but if you don't like it, GTFO." I *assume* that's not what you meant... 🙄

  3. I just grab the log from user scripts. As I say, it's not very helpful. You can also run the line in the console and grab the output. The problem will be SD returning crap data and causing g2g to fail, but unless they admit it we're stumped.

     

    Btw, you should change your grabber script to only overwrite your XML file if the new XML file is big enough. That way, even if it fails you'll have a week or so of data.

  4. In Extra Parameters for the docker:

    --device /dev/dri:/dev/dri

     

    In go:

    #!/bin/bash
    # GPU
    modprobe i915
    chmod -R 777 /dev/dri
    # Start the Management Utility
    /usr/local/sbin/emhttp &
     

    No idea VAAPI vs QuickSync, probably wasn't available when I set this up.

    Anyone?  How do I know if my Emby Premiere is working?

    Dashboard will tell you if it's transcoding. Mine uses VAAPI hardware transcoding with an Intel chipset.

     

    You can also check if Premiere is enabled, just click "Emby Premiere" at the left of the dashboard.

    ok, wonders me due when you use xteve, xteve will keep its data (cached) and wont empty the current data ... if it does empty the data, may open a topic at xteve github cause that would be a bug ;)

    The problem is that when downloading the xml, it downloads channels but no programme data, so it is a valid non-empty xml file, just with nothing useful. You think that's something I should raise with xteve?

    Ive submitted a ticket with SD. Hopefully they will be quick.

    A bit OT here, but I've changed my userscript that downloads xml from SD, so that it downloads to intermediate files and only overwrites the in-use xml if it's bigger than a minimum size:

    if [ -n "$(find "$fil" -prune -size +20000000c)" ]; then
      mv freenew.xml free.xml
      mv skynew.xml sky.xml
      outMsg="Success"
    else
      outMsg="SD BORKED"
    fi

    This way I don't lose my current data when SD breaks. This has happened twice in 10 days.

    I am having this exact same issue. I actually came here to post this almost word for word.

    When I did everything last night it seemed ok, I woke up today and most EPG data is gone and I noticed the exact same error.

    SD is borked again. Raise a lineup issue on their website and hope for a quick fix.

  9. Some serious problems with the updated plugin here. I thought it was working and now I've run out of EPG. 😯

     

    I've tried recreating this with a new lineup and it's repeatable. I just got G2G SD to create the yaml for a new xml:

    guide2go -configure z.yaml

     

    Then added all channels, no edits to the YAML. Ran:

    guide2go -config z.yaml

     

    This output is produced:

    Clearly the line:

    2020/06/06 11:39:38 [ERROR] invalid character '<' looking for beginning of value

    is a problem. There is no < in the YAML. If I pick a single channel it seems to work, so it looks like the plugin is not properly protecting itself from weird characters in the SD data.

     

    Edit: the XML output is produced, but is just the channel list.

     

    Any ideas? This is quite urgent (wife complaining!) so I'll need to sort something ASAP. Thanks! Redacted YAML is attached.

    I used the Space invader guide to install and setup the docker long time ago, but now I keep getting 

     

    image.png.52a98207cef163f869f63a1f8d9c0a0c.png

     

    And I have to setup things from scratch again..... every time I add the --runtime=nvidia I get this (Worked 100% before so maybee a update?)

    I have my media for meta data on a unassigned drive maybee this is now a problem?

     

    So I was wondering is more people on Unraid using the Linuxserver docker for Emby?

    Is it more stable?

    The Emby one is perfectly stable for me. What version unRAID? Did you install the nvidia plugin?

    I'd forgotten about all about this product.  I've got 4 leads from a Sky LNB hanging behind my Unraid server doing nothing.  Anybody using these in the UK with freesat?  If so, would you need to use TVH and TVH Proxy to get it into Plex?

    If it gives you a playlist (as I think it does), you could just use that with xteve to get it into Plex. xteve is much more reliable than tvhproxy.

    i guess what u looking for is an fallback option, which xteve doesnt do and is not planned todo ...

    what u looking for is a tv backend server like tvheadend which can handle this.

     

    alternativ for xteve, assign alternative chan numbers, sample

    Channel1 (hdhr1)   25

    Channel1 (hdhr2)  25.1

     

    then u have 2 channels in xteve pointing to each hdhr, not what u want, but an alternative

    Thanks, I was hoping to dump tvheadend as it's such a PITA when channels move etc. Maybe not!

     

    On the alternate channel numbers, are you talking in the playlist? Is this going to lead to duplicated channels in my epg?
