Hi, I'm trying to pull the PSI Data from a multicast UDP stream. I've compiled DVBTee for windows and am trying this line

dvbtee -iudp://239.255.1.201:5004 -O3 -ofile://output.ts -d

The build doesn't seem to know about dvb-vb2.cpp: There's no attempt to compile it, and then the linker complains about the undefined references.

I'm trying to build from the source in: mkrufky-libdvbtee-v0.6.6-0-gd291532.zip using build-auto.sh.

I was missing the unenforced build dependency for pkgconf, but adding it changed nothing.

I suspect an autotools issue, but am unfamiliar with it.

The german special characters ä, ö and ü (https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Umlaut) won't be displayed correctly.

dvbtee output:
04:25 - 05:10 : SOKO Kitzb�hel
09:05 - 10:15 : Volle Kanne - Service t�glich

Should be:
04:25 - 05:10 : SOKO Kitzbühel
09:05 - 10:15 : Volle Kanne - Service täglich

Hello - first of all THANK YOU for making this software, it is exactly what I have been looking for, a simple "swiss army knife" for transport streams. And it accurately reads and displays the ATSC broadcasts/info!

I'm wondering how to properly capture program output. Specifically I am looking to get the scan output in JSON, and the EPG guide in JSON. When running commands I can see the output in the console - but it appears to be going to stderr, mixed with lots of other debug/logging output.

For example, to get the EPG for channel 17:

dvbtee -C 17 -I 1 -E -j > out.json
# out.json is empty

dvbtee -C 17 -I 1 -E -j -ofile://out.json
# out.json is binary, perhaps a transport stream?

Same story with channel scanning:

dvbtee -s -C 17 -j > out.json
# out.json has the stdout, which is the plaintext version.

Any help would be appreciated. I'm assuming that various string processing of stderr is going to be required to parse the JSON?

Seemed to work OK with 5.x :)

I'm trying to use dvbtee inside a node.js application. I have a tuner module which gives me access to a MPEG-2 transport stream from a DVB-T stick.

Earlier I piped the output to a file record.ts and started dvbtee with the file as its input, which worked. Now I would like to pipe the stream directly to dvbtee. Therefore I'm starting dvbtee without arguments, which works fine on a linux shell but inside node.js will give me this error:

Stderr: reading from STDIN
failed to open stdin!

This is the code:

  var exec = require('child_process').exec;
      
  // both work
  //var command = "cat record.ts | dvbtee";
  //var command ="dvbtee < record.ts";

  // doesn't work
  var command = "dvbtee";
  var dvbtee = exec(command, function(error, stdout, stderr) {

  	console.log("Stdout:", stdout);
  	console.log("Stderr:", stderr);

  });

I was thinking it would wait for input from stdin, but it seems it doesn't. Why can it not open stdin?

Later I would do this:

tuner.pipe(dvbtee.stdin);

What could be the problem here?

Thank you for any help!

Why do I get

$ autoconf-2.69 
$ ./configure 
configure: error: cannot find install-sh, install.sh, or shtool in . "."/.
$

on FreeBSD?

I want to use dvbtee JSON output to extract EPG information from my stored ts-files.
It looks that I found an issue here:
When a description already contains text quoted with double quotes, the JSON output gets invalid, because this description is wrapped again with double quotes without escaping the inner quotes, see below (...""Mein ...)
{ "descriptors": [ { "descriptorTag": 77, "lang": "deu", "name": ""Mein Kampf". Das gefährliche Buch", "text": "Dokumentation Deutschland 2014" } ]
I'm not a C++ programmer, so it would be difficult to help myself here. Would be great if anybody could fix this. Thanks!

I built on Ubuntu 18.04.4 using the ./build-auto.sh method, had to install automake and libtools but all looks fine. But when I run /dvbtee/dvbtee < /path/to/file.ts I get the error:
/home/code/dvbtee/dvbtee/.libs/dvbtee: error while loading shared libraries: libdvbtee.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I've tried this sudo in case of permissions issue, same error. I can't find libdvbtee.so.0, maybe there's a build problem I missed in the build?

Hey Community,

first of all thank you for the great tool and the job which was been done to build it.

I am trying to get few information out of my stream [name,stream time, description] but somehow it is not working properly. I get the following JSON/Data only when i add "-d3" as parameter.

Is there any way to reduce the output?

Command :
root/libdvbtee/dvbtee/.libs/lt-dvbtee -d3 -iudp://239.22.0.1:1234

Wanted output :

[EIT]::store: {"events":[{"descriptors":[{"descriptorTag":77,"lang":"deu","name":"Dynamische Programmumschaltung","text":"Der Sender Test-R prüft die dynamische PMT Umschaltung. Die PMT sorgt für die korrekte Auswertung und Darstellung der von Sendern ausgestrahlten Umschaltsignale für wechselnde Programme und ermöglicht die Aufteilung in "}],"eventId":3002,"f_free_ca":false,"lengthSec":1179648,"runningStatus":4,"startTime":998597787648,"unixTimeBegin":1635937200,"unixTimeEnd":1635980400},{"descriptors":[{"descriptorTag":77,"lang":"deu","name":"Dynamische Programmumschaltung","text":"Der Sender Test-R prüft die dynamische PMT Umschaltung.

If i do remove the "-d3" as parameter then the output removes the description JSON/Data

Good day.

Does it possible to rotate output files during recording? (Some simple equivalent to DVR).
Or we need to add this kind of functionality? If need to add where you would suggest to start from (just a hint)?

Thanks,
Mikhail.

Good day.

Thank you for good software. :)
We have very small question. Does it possible to extract TDT/TOT timestamps from stream?
If not possible with dvbtee please give us a hint how we can grab it (if you know of course how this possible) :)

Thanks,
Mikhail.

for example, today's output:

TSID#0001: [{"programs": [ ]}]

should be changed to:

{"TSID#0001": [{"programs": [ ]}]}

I fed in a day or so of BBC Radio 1's TS mux into this like so:

cat /dvb/6720/365/14515*.ts | ./dvbtee/dvbtee -j |& tail -n 120 (tailing because I can't find a way to turn off the dots)

And got at the end of it:

This is accurate (other than lengthSec and startTime, those don't seem to make sense, or I'm missing something completely) however the output given here is not JSON that can be read. Mainly because of the single quotes, this makes automating the use of this program tedious

Hi,

I see that this good library has support for both: Linux DVB internal tuners and HDHomeRun devices.
From some time a new protocol for network tuners is available (almos for DVB sources): SAT>IP.

You can get the official specification from here:
http://www.satip.info/sites/satip/files/resource/satip_specification_version_1_2_2.pdf

And a good example code from the last VideoLAN commit (a single file for the input):
https://github.com/videolan/vlc/blob/master/modules/access/satip.c

A brief overview of this standard:

• SSDP for autodiscovering.
• Control plane using RTSP.
• Transport plane using RTP.
• Commands based on URI like: ?src=1&freq=11347&pol=v&ro=0.35&msys=dvbs2&mtype=8psk&plts=on&sr=22000&fec=23&pids=0,17,18

So, in fact similar to HDHR in functionality:

• Both are network tuners.
• Both have autodiscovering (SSDP vs 65001/udp), but addressable directly with the IP address.
• Both use a message control protocol (RTSP in port 554 vs hdhomerun-binary in 65001/tcp).
• Both use similar transport protocol (RTP+RTCP vs RTP/UDP).

Then I feel it can be easy to integrate the support for it. The idea is to use the current code for the HDHR input as an example for the concrete class satip_tuner_device, and use part of the code from the VLC project to complete the implementation.

You think that's a good idea?
I hope you agree to consider this upgrade.
Regards.

This library works great. EPG from my TS files!
I tried to make a distribute for "end users" and ran into this:

Hi again,

Just a quick question to see if it would be possible to get the Category of the TV Show (i.e. "Entertainment" or its Id?) and the Advisory (PG, 18+ etc) in the Output? ... Having a look at a sample output i've captured the descriptorTag always seems to be 77 which i'm guessing means video as its 72 for the radio channels? Sorry if its there and i'm missing something here?!

Currently using the command line (using it in Brisbane Australia, DVBT)
dvbtee.exe -F infile.ts -j

I'm a .NET guy so doing updates will be over my head i'm afraid! But very happy to be a tester or contribute with writing some documentation or wikis whatever I can! :-)

Thanks,

Andrew

Using the build-auto.sh it failed until I changed git clone git://github.com/mkrufky/libdvbpsi.git into git clone https://github.com/mkrufky/libdvbpsi.git in line 28.

With "git://" it failed to fetch anything, then it continued, and the further build process went weird. The script probably should check if the git checkout process went OK or not and then abort instantly too.

Just FYI.

I can see the programs on the console output as a list but most of them don't include in the JSON output. It is like doesn't include this list in the JSON part.
The command I enter
dvbtee/dvbtee -iudp://239.0.0.4:1234 -t30 -j

and the output.txt

Hello,

I want to be able to carry out tests with the compilation, I read in a POST ( https://superuser.com/questions/1027014/how-to-l-extract-epg-data-from-mpeg-ts-files ) that it is possible to run it from windows 10, I tried what is mentioned in the installation instructions and in the README, but I get errors.

Could someone give me support?

I tried it from GitBash for windows and I get the following problems,

I don't know if this is the correct way to compile it from windows.

Thank you so much.

The bitrate display is slightly confusing:

…
pid 0000  1713 p/s  322.044 kb/s    2.352 mbit
pid 040e  1713 p/s  322.044 kb/s    2.352 mbit
pid 100e 965624 p/s  181.312 mb/s  1452.496 mbit
pid 104e 30640 p/s    5.320 mb/s   46.560 mbit
pid 120e   134 p/s   25.192 kb/s  201.536 kbit
pid 2000 999824 p/s  187.912 mb/s  1503.296 mbit
…

(1) Something goes wrong in the last column. The value is a bit weird. E.g. if I calculate 1713*188*8 I get to 2,576,352 bit/s = 2.58 Mbit/s. Note how your result is 2[,576,]352? If I do the calculation for the video data: 965624*188*8 / 1000 / 1000 = 1452.298496, note how your result is 1452.[298]496? It seems it simply cuts out 3 chars in the middle to get to the result?

Or I don't understand this at all. Evidently I'm confused by it. 😎

(2) There's also a magical "pid 2000" which doesn't exist in the original stream. I guess it's a way to say "Totals"?

(3) The output is unaligned which makes it hard to read.

In the example "pid 0000" (PAT) and "pid 040e" (no idea) have minimal amount of packets/s, but it looks like it calculates a way higher Mbit/s than for the video stream with "pid 100e". Having 3 fractional digits adds to the confusion with a thousand separator.

(4) in the 2nd value column it uses "kb", and "mb". That's highly confusing too. "small b" always means bit, but here it seems to refer to Byte. Those units should be capitalized. (personally I also would prefer MiB and KiB (aka power of 2 units), but that's another story. 😎) Similar it also should be "Mbit", or probably "Mbit/s" even for the last column.

What I did expect to see:

…
pid 0x0000:   1713 p/s  322.04 KB/s     2.58 Mbit/s
pid 0x040e:   1713 p/s  322.04 KB/s     2.58 Mbit/s
pid 0x100e: 965624 p/s  181.31 MB/s  1452.30 Mbit/s
pid 0x104e:  30640 p/s    5.32 MB/s    46.08 Mbit/s
pid 0x120e:    134 p/s   25.19 KB/s   201.54 Kbit/s
    Totals: 999824 p/s  187.91 MB/s  1503.74 Mbit/s
…

(5) It somehow should make more clear (e.g. in the usage output) that this is the "processing performance" of dvbtee, and not the actual stream bitrates of the input file (e.g. I do dvbtee -b < some_recording.ts)

it seems like it's not even trying to use the HDHomeRun device. Note that if I use ./hdhomerun_config 123382A1 set /tuner1/target udp://10.1.1.2:5000/ I can receive data via UDP but I'm hoping to use dvbtee as an EPG grabber

Running the command line specifying an output file containing a comma, produces a strange behavior:

dvbtee -C2 -I2 "-ofile://filename with, comma.ts"

Outputs a broken file of 0 bytes named filename with. I searched around and could not find a , comma.ts file on the filesystem anywhere. Not sure if the comma is a special control character or if this is a bug.

Just trying to convert the time information for use but having difficulties! .... Below example for the two fields "LengthSec" and "startTime" that don't seem to convert into human readable timespans or datetimes... tried Ticks/Epoch/Milliseconds etc :-)

For example:
{ "descriptors":[ { "descriptorTag":77, "lang":"eng", "name":"Just Jazz", "text":"Just Jazz. Track info at abc.net.au/jazz" } ], "eventId":2299, "f_free_ca":false, "lengthSec":136448, "runningStatus":1, "startTime":965395694848 }

Hi there,
Using the build-auto.sh to install in a new Ubuntu server today, and the process tripped up on some typos in configure.
Line 18533: Line not commented. Also the 'if' beneath it is inset one place! No biggy.

Thanks so much for such a great tool. We use if for off-air TV recording at the BFI National Archive now:

iptraf doesn't show any UDP packets so it's not pulling or something. My todo is to parse EPG from multicast TS stream. I tested this on node-dvbtee but I can't figure out how.

Thanks

Built on raspberry pi 4 running nodejs v14.

Build instructions:
git clone https://github.com/mkrufky/libdvbtee.git
cd libdvbtee
./build-auto.sh
sudo cp -rp dvbtee /opt/
sudo ln -s /opt/dvbtee/dvbtee /usr/local/bin

Command to scan:
dvbtee -s -a0 > out.tmp

Results:
scan appears to run but gets stuck on the following line, resulting in a file with only "# dvbtee v0.6.7 - http://github.com/mkrufky/libdvbtee" written at the top.

Recently dvbtee stopped producing a nice channel list for me when running the scan command with

dvbtee/dvbtee -s -a0 -q > channels.conf

It seems to be running fine without the -q option and ultimately processes channels.conf after several minutes, which is what it used to do in the past.

Hi,

I need some help. In the README page appears this first example:
dvbtee -c33 -I1 -oudp://192.168.1.100:1234

But I want to pipe the stream like I do with the dvbstream tool. So my objetive is something like:
dvbtee -c33 -I1 -o- | vlc -

The idea is to support -o- or -o/dev/stdout or something similar.
Any help?
Thank you!

Hi, I was hoping you might be able to help.

I'm using a windows compiled version of dvbtee and am trying to pull the PSI data from a multicast UDP stream. But I seem to be getting an error.

The line I'm using is:
dvbtee -iudp://239.255.1.201:5004 -O3 -ofile://output.ts -d

my output is:

I might be getting this completely backwards but I was hoping you might be able to point me in the right direction. Though if I loose the port number I get an output file but empty.

Many Thanks in advance James

Hello,

I have just purchased a WinTV-QuadHD tuner card for use my Ubuntu 20.04 system and am just now learning more about this whole area of media.

I was looking for a small, fast, and easy to use C/C++ library that I can work with the WinTV-QuadHD card to get media streams, (MPEG-2) I think that it has to be, so that I can stream them to other applications from tuners.

Your library seems like it could do the job, but I am not sure and wanted to ask for advice and perhaps some guidance.
Cheers
