[REL] LiveTVH - Live TV streaming with Tvheadend

LiveTVH.bundle

About

LiveTVH provides live TV streaming for Plex via Tvheadend, including metadata from Tvheadend's EPG, theTVDB, and The Movie DB.

After running into a few issues with the existing Tvheadend channels (streaming to iOS, etc), developing a new plugin was a good excuse to play around with Python and the channel framework. I'm not a developer by trade so feedback is appreciated!

Release notes

  • 2017.05.22 - LiveTVH 1.2
    .

    • New: Paginated channel lists with configurable # of items per page - this helps with longer channel lists (a necessity for IPTV providers with thousands of channels).
    • New: Tvheadend recordings for playback - located at the end of the first page of the channel list (a display bug with several Plex clients prevents placing it at the beginning of the list).
    • New: Codec identification using Tvheadend channel tags (experimental). This can enable direct streaming for H264-AAC streams on some clients - see the notes on GitHub.
    • Updated: EPG parser to improve support for IPTV sources, including using images for a show if specified in the EPG (if other metadata providers are not available or are missing artwork).
    • Updated: EPG item limit to 20k items/20MB (again, for IPTV sources).
    • Updated: Plex clients will now display channel thumbnails as video clip objects (widescreen thumbnails) if metadata providers are disabled.
    • Updated: Code housekeeping (partially PEP8-conformant)
    • Bugfix: transcoding quality options not visible during playback
    • Bugfix: episode names from EPG were not set on Plex for Android

  • 2017.05.14 - LiveTVH 1.1
    .

    • EPG is no longer hard set - the number of EPG items requested is now based on the number of channels and hours of EPG data necessary (up to a maximum of 10,000 items or 10MB of data).
    • Bugfix: Thumbnails fallback to a channel logo when a show matches theTVDB but does not have a poster.
    • Bugfix: 12-hour time displays correctly on non-linux platforms.
    • Bugfix: Year displays for movies (when available from TMDb).

  • 2017.05.10 - Initial release 1.0

Features

  • EPG: displayed as a simple list within each channel description, with a configurable time period to display in 12/24 hour time.
  • Recordings: available for playback with rich metadata if available.

  • Rich metadata: provided via theTVDB and The Movie DB.
    .

    • If available through Tvheadend's EPG, searching theTVDB utilizes zap2it ID information for more exact matches and will fall back to searching by name if not available.

  • Fallback to using EPG images or Tvheadend channel icons if artwork is not available from the metadata providers.

  • Customized for different clients to display metadata more efficiently - Plex clients vary quite a bit in which fields they choose to display!
  • Direct streaming on Plex Web and iOS for channels using H264-AAC.
  • Caching where possible for EPG data, metadata and images to minimize channel list load times.
  • Tvheadend stream URL checking for availability prior to sending the stream to the client - this prevents long timeouts on the client if Tvheadend stream is inaccessible (no available tuner, no connection to the source, etc).

[REL] IPTV.bundle - plug-in that plays IPTV streams from a M3U playlist

October 13, 2013, 11:46 pm

2016-03-21 Update: Now with EPG!



I was unable to find a plugin that would allow me to play custom streams, so after days of learning Python, with help of shopgirl284, Mikedm139 and examples found on this forum, I created my first Plex plugin; I present You Plex plugin that plays network streams (a.k.a. IPTV) from a M3U playlist:

https://github.com/Cigaras/IPTV.bundle

Also available in Unsupported AppStore V2

OneTechGenius also made a video guide on how to set up various Plex channels including this one, You can find it on Youtube, a written version is also available.

Included sample playlist is outdated. You can find some playlists scattered along this thread (like posts #388, #399, #407, #417, #457, #500, #501 and so on) or just google for them.

 At the moment plugin supports HTTP and RTSP streaming protocols, RTMP also works with some limitations, and MMS did not work for me on any device, some users report that it works in Android and Plex Web.

Please keep in mind that this plugin does not actually play videos by itself, it only passes links to Plex in a format understandable to Plex and the playback is done by Plex client, and it is a known fact that Plex Media Server does not transcode live streams so you might need a third party transcoder like VODServer if client is unable to transcode streams by itself, please read post #97 (especially Apple TV owners) and compatibility section of readme file for more information.

If plugin does not work for You or You don't like it or don't like Plex, but still want to watch IPTV on your Smart TV or other device, You can check post #194 for alternative solutions, but in any way please consider making a small donation if I was of any help for You.

And instead of summary, if someone of more experienced developers could spare a few minutes to test and review my plugin I would be more than grateful, please help me perfect it to be suitable for the App Store.

This is a fork of nomego's Lazyman.bundle that adds support for MLB streams now that it was added in the LazyMan app.

Now that nomega has merged my PR for MLB support, I am changing the UAS link to point to his repo: https://github.com/nomego/Lazyman.bundle

View NHL and MLB live and archived games, recaps, condensed games, and highlights.

It appears not to support live games on Apple devices at this time. See a workaround here.

Update: version 0.5beta has been released for beta-testing - see https://forums.plex.tv/topic/86644-mythtv-plug-in/page-13#entry852522 for features and other details.

 

Note: This is a beta-release, and will contain (even) more errors than a regular release. If you're not prepared to put up with this, wait for the regular 0.5 release which is expected in a couple of weeks (quicker if enough of you volunteer for beta-testing)

 

 

 

Update: version 0.4 fixes bug causing snippets of live TV (watched using the MythTV frontend) to appear as recordings

 

Note: PlexSync - which stopped working for recordings a while back - now works again after I upgraded my Ubuntu to Plex Media Server 0.9.11.4. I'm crossing my fingers that it doesn't break again - but so far it's good (on iOS clients)

 

 

 

Update: version 0.3 fixes bug causing deleted recordings to remain visible.

 

 

Update: version 0.2 now supports PlexSync!

If you have a PlexPass account (required for the PlexSync feature, I believe), you can now sync MythTV recordings to you Plex client (e.g. iPad) for offline viewing. See http://mymediacenter.me/2012/11/26/new-plex-feature-plexsync/

Note: 2 lines of code on my part - all credit goes to the Plex team for the awesome PlexSync feature!


Guys,

I've had MythTV installed and working on my servers for ages (3-4 years) - primarily for recording TV - but is has always been a bit of a pain to actually play back the recordings on the TV in the family room.

So having enjoyed the ease-of-use of Plex with a Roku3 client for a while, I thought I'd try to make a plugin allowing me to watch MythTV recordings through Plex.

The result has passed the family test (ḱids & wife have used it for a couple of weeks now), so I thought I'd share the results, in case anyone else out there could use it:

The plug-in can be found at https://github.com/tschaumburg/MythRecordings.bundle, along with a wiki at https://github.com/tschaumburg/MythRecordings.bundle/wiki, including installation instructions and a load of screenshots.

Note that this plugin requires that you have a Linux server with a working MythTV backend (I can recommend the MythBuntu distribution, which wraps everything in one install - but expect the tuning of channels and setup of program guide data to be a bit cumbersome...:-).

Let me know if you find this useful - and contributions through github are most welcome!

Here's a screenshot (the gobbledegook in the programme descriptions is Danish - hopefully your EPG provider will have descriptions in your language!):

[REL] Spotify2

Spotify2 github
v0.5.8 - 29/12/2014 3:27:32 p.m. NZDT
Spotify2.bundle.png?label=Ready

This is a rebuild of the official Spotify plugin using spotify.py, the plugin
is still in fairly early stages of development so you might notice some slowness
while I sort out a few performance issues.

Premium (required)
Usage of the Spotify API is only available for Premium accounts, to comply with these
rules the same restrictions are in place on this plugin.

Node.js (required)
Node.js is currently required for Spotify client verification checks. I'm looking into
other options that we can bundle into the plugin, so this might change in the future.

We use PyExecJS for javascript execution, so Windows and OS X users might
be able to get it working without node.js

Installation
UnSupported Appstore (recommended)
The latest stable release of the plugin is available via the UnSupported Appstore,
this is the recommended method as it will automatically update to ensure you are
always on the best version.

Manual
If you would rather install the plugin manually, you can install the plugin by following
these instructions.
 
Download (pick one of these branches)Install
Extract the downloaded zip file and move the Spotify2.bundle folder to your Plug-ins
folder, look here https://plexapp.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/201106098-How-do-I-find-the-Plug-Ins-folder- for details on how to find the
Plug-ins folder on your system.

Support
Clients
The following clients are known to stream well, clients not listed here haven't been
tested by me but will likely still work.
Plex
 - Plex Home Theater
 - Plex/Web
 - Plex (for Android)
 - Plex (for Chromecast)

 DLNA
 - XBMC
 - foobar2000 (foo_upnp)
 - Sony Bravia TV (2012)
Please let me know if a client doesn't work or tracks load slowly, in some cases I might
be able to get it working, it really depends on how the client is built though.

Remote streaming
Remote streaming would require port 12555 to be port-forwarded, but this wouldn't
be recommended as this endpoint doesn't require any authentication yet, so anyone
would be able to stream a track off your server.

Bugs / Feature Requests
Post your feature requests and report any problems to the github issue tracker
here https://github.com/fuzeman/Spotify2.bundle/issues

[REL] Dreambox plugin 0.1 is done

A first draft for your viewing pleasure

Hey everyone,
Early January I gave the very talented Sander a challenge, and we worked a week on it. The challenge was to try and create a Dreambox plugin which I could use in my setup which would fetch my cousins dreambox content.
I am pleased to say that we have a working first draft which you guys can tryout if you want to.

It uses the raw stream at a specific IP, but we also tried to build in support for having a transcoder at a seperate address in case people outside your network wants to view, but has limited bandwidth.
The development of that plugin is on hold at the moment, but you are welcome to try it out: https://github.com/sander1/Dreambox.bundle

 

EDIT: The above link is for the original version which now is outdated. The latest greeeny101-version can be found here: https://github.com/g...Dreambox.bundle

Go into the plugin, choose preferences. In the host field you add the IP address to your dreambox. In the "web interface port" you add the port which the web interface uses. This plugin uses the web interface to change channels. The field called "Streaming video port" should contain the port from which you stream transcoded material (if any).

Maybe in the future Sander will have time to help me flesh this out, but for now this is what exists. Let me know how it works for you guys.


Limitations: This plugin is only tested with the web interface that is called Enigma Web Interface - Pli Edition. Until more development is done to support the Dreambox API, no other web interface will work I believe.

[REQ] iHeart Radio Plugin

I accidently posted this in the wrong board (channel development) so I reported my own comment for duplication to post here in the right board because if I didn't do that then there would be two of these posted. I also let them know to lock the old thread. anyways sorry about that I didn't know what board it was supposed to go in until I read the post "please do not put requests in channel development" or something like that, my mistake. also, I was wondering if it was possible if someone could make an iHeart Radio plugin for Plex think it be cool to have on it Plex. There already is soundcloud and shoutcast, but i think it would be cool to add iHeart Radio to the plugins page. I tried looking for different plugins on different media servers. Unfortunately, none exist, at least yet anyways. It did exist for playon via the channel store, but the site changed and they removed the plugin from the channel store after not being updated. And since Playon''s biggest plugin community Playon Scripts is pretty much dead, then I came here to ask if it was possible for someone to make a new iHeart radio script from scratch. I would do it my self, but I am just a newbie when it comes to scripting things. Thanks!
