PLEX 1.1.4.2757 and IPTV not working about iptv.bundle

[Cigaras]

I do not have anything powered by freeNAS or freeBSD and I can not test it, but I myself use playlist generated with udpxy from multicast to http and I am pretty sure this is clients issue. Only thing I can suggest is fiddle with Direct Play and Direct Streaming options, if server can do the transcoding most players should be able to play the streams.

Same goes for audio tracks, they are handled by the client, not by the plugin, and if client is unable to change them there is nothing I can do with that.

Hello,

If you give me your IP address, I can open ports for you and send several
URLs.

Hello,

can I share with you my IPTV plylist, my plex server, just to test? As I
can't see IPTV channel not on PC, not on my Android tabled and not on my
Samsung s7.... (I need your IP to open external port)

Edward.

How about for starters You use included sample playlist and see if it plays on Your setup. Also would be great to know a bit more about Your setup, do You use NAS as a server or as a client, or as both?

[Bl00d-B0b]

Hello,

I am using FreeNAS. FreeNAS kernel is FreeBSD. My Plex server works in Jail
(sandbox). and mount my via via /mnt.
Play list, which comes as example also works perfect in my vlc player. but
when I use it in IPTV plugin I am receiving the same behavior and errors
(on windows, on Android Tabled S2, on Android phone Samsung S7). here is a
log of a pug-in.

And even windows client doesn't work?

I am not sure how Plex handles the unicast traffic, but if PMS does the transcoding it should receive the unicast stream, convert it whats it sees suitable and forward it to clients, so my question would be - are You sure Your PMS can reach the required unicast streams? Maybe something is blocking them because as You said it's running in a sandbox or something. Can You install VLC along side PMS and see if it works? I have very little experience with FreeBSD based servers and this Linux sandboxing and Jailing stuff, so sorry if I said something stupid.

On other hand, if PMS does nothing and leaves everything to client my assumption might be irrelevant, again as I said I not know how Plex handles the unicast traffic, but either way it might be useful to fiddle with transcoding options as described in readme file.

[Bl00d-B0b]

Hello,

I am not end-user :) Have IP background ~30 years... I try a lot of
different thinks. this is a reason I want you to test. I can just share to
you my media server. Now there is your IPTP playlist with samples. You will
see, it's not client issues, I am 99% sure. So, please give me your plex.tv
login, and I share with your my media server. you can check yourself!

My Plex user name is Cigaras, and as said earlier I do not reject the possibility that it's servers issue, however it is very unlikely that it's plug-ins fault because it only translates m3u to format understandable to Plex, all the playback is handled by Plex software, and reason for error No playable sources found is very simple - Plex client is unable to play the stuff it gets from the server - however in Your case I would love to know if PMS gets the stuff right before trying to pass it to client, I have a suspicion there is something wrong in there.

Hello,

you get access from bl00d_b0b. Now installed your plugin with your samples.
no any customizations. also ssl is disabled just to check traffic with
Wireshark.

To my surprise it works, that means Your server is working properly, the issue is with Your client/player, so as I said in my first reply , disable Direct Play and DIrect Stream options in Your player, if those options are not available or do not help You can also try to disable Optimized for streaming option in plug-ins preferences, but I doubt it'll have any effect.

Nothing more I can help You here, search the forums for issues of the client/player You are using, wait for Plex to fix them, or try another media center solutions like Kodi or Media Portal, or, if as You said You're not the end user, run Your own broadcasting server with TVHeadend or similar software, You should be able to transcode streams into whatever format You need/like.

Hello again,

does the system support TV Guide from .gz files?
https://www.teleguide.info/download/new3/xmltv.xml.gz

As XML file is to large?

No, compressed files are not supported at the moment, might add it in the future.

[Cigaras]

GZIP compressed XMLTV files are supported in version 1.2.8 and later
