Minisatip for beginners

Post by balanga »

Can someone give a pointer on getting started with minisatip? I don't really know anything about how to run it.

I want to run it on a STB - Technomate TM-NANO 2 running OpenATV.

As a stab in the dark, following some forum post, I ran

minisatip -N --satip-xml http://127.0.0.1:8554 -R /usr/share/minisatip/html

and this what I got in my browser when I pointed to 192.168.1.44:8554
<root xmlns="urn:schemas-upnp-org:device-1-0" configId="0">
<specVersion>
<major>1</major>
<minor>1</minor>
</specVersion>
<device>
<deviceType>urn:ses-com:device:SatIPServer:1</deviceType>
<friendlyName>enigma2</friendlyName>
.
.
.
<satip:X_SATIPCAP xmlns:satip="urn:ses-com:satip">DVBS2-2</satip:X_SATIPCAP>
</device>
</root>
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi, that mean you can now use a satip client (tvheadend) to watch channels.

I would suggest for starters to run minisatip without arguments.

Thanks. I've started tvheadend and under

Configuration -> DVB Inputs

It shows

minisatip - 192.168.1.44
SAT->IP DVB-S Tuner #1 (192.168.1.44)

which suggests some sort of connection, but have no idea how to proceed.

I have watched that video numerous times but I'm confused because in the video a HDHomeRun unit is used and the Network type is ATSC. I'm not sure which network type I should use, whether IPTV or DVB-S....

I've chosen a DVB-S network but apart from Network name and Pre-defined muxes, I'm not sure of the other settings.

I see that 95 Muxes are found and they are listed but there are no services and can't see how to watch anything.

From the dvb inputs->network you can scan the whole network. Try running minisatip -1 3 -f -l http and upload the log if it does not work.

looks like enigma is still running, you need to stop it first.
