Generate channel list
Posted: Wed Jan 31, 2018 7:59 am
Hi!
I've got minisatip running here on two Raspberry Pis, one for DVB-S, the other for DVB-C. Both servers are running fine, serving TV channels for various devices in my network. For instance I've got a Panasonic TV with a built-in SAT-IP tuner. The Panasonic TV found both minisatip servers, executed a channel search and now I can watch TV over my network without any problems.
Even though my client devices do not give any technical details on how the channels are retrieved from the minisatip server, I assume that it's basically a list of RTSP links. For instance: if I'm opening the following link in VLC, it's showing the TV channel ZDF HD:
rtsp://192.168.1.2/?src=1&freq=11494&pol=h&msys=dvbs2&sr=22000&pids=0,5100,5101,5104,5102,5103,5106,5101
Now I'm wondering if there is a way to generate such a link list, i.e. a list of rtsp links, one link for each channel that can be received. Is there some kind of external tool that can perform a channel search on a minisatip server and produces a link list as output?
Or can I put minisatip to some debug mode where it logs the rtsp links that were requestes by connected clients?
