    satipclient

    Hello everybody,

    Has anyone got experience with satipclient ?

    I have no success in getting the DVB-C Tuner from my Panasonic TV.
    satipclient sees a DVB-S Tuner.

    vlc on Windows 10 instead can play the DVB-C channels from the TV.

    Απ: satipclient

    Here we go:

    This was what the satipclient on my Octagon SF4008 found and saved in /etc/vtuner.conf

    Code:
    0=desc:Panasonic VIErA,ipaddr:192.168.0.128,tuner_type:DVB-S,uuid:4D454930-0400-1000-8001-B46C479D2E7A,vtuner_type:satip_client
    I had just to replace DVB-S with DVB-C, restart the SF4008 and then could use the DVB-C Tuner from the Panasonic TV as well.

    Surprisingly this does not work with DVB-T2 if the TV>IP Server is configured to DVB-T/T2 as source.

    If changed to
    Code:
    0=desc:Panasonic VIErA,ipaddr:192.168.0.128,tuner_type:DVB-T,uuid:4D454930-0400-1000-8001-B46C479D2E7A,vtuner_type:satip_client
    the satipclient doesn't find any channels.

    If changed to
    Code:
    0=desc:Panasonic VIErA,ipaddr:192.168.0.128,tuner_type:DVB-T2,uuid:4D454930-0400-1000-8001-B46C479D2E7A,vtuner_type:satip_client
    or
    Code:
    0=desc:Panasonic VIErA,ipaddr:192.168.0.128,tuner_type:DVB-T/T2,uuid:4D454930-0400-1000-8001-B46C479D2E7A,vtuner_type:satip_client
    the satipclient sees a DVB-S server which obviously is wrong.

    I am wondering if satipclient is able to work with DVB-T or DVB-T2 at all.
    Does anybody know more ?

    Απ: satipclient

    I have found more information about this issue:
    https://forums.openpli.org/topic/788...-improvements/
    https://cs-forum.eu/viewtopic.php?p=1898#p1898

    As far as I can understand the file VTUNER.cpp which is part of the plugin has to be modified with these lines:
    Code:
    case FE_TYPE_TERRESTRIAL:
			strncpy(fe_info.name, "SAT>IP DVB-T VTUNER", sizeof(fe_info.name));
			strcpy(fe_type_str,"DVB-T2");
			fe_info.type = FE_OFDM;
			fe_info.frequency_min=0;
			fe_info.frequency_max=863250000;
			fe_info.frequency_stepsize=62500;
			fe_info.frequency_tolerance=0;
			fe_info.notifier_delay=0;
			fe_info.caps=(fe_caps_t)(FE_CAN_INVERSION_AUTO |
						FE_CAN_FEC_1_2 | FE_CAN_FEC_2_3 | FE_CAN_FEC_3_4 |
						FE_CAN_FEC_5_6 | FE_CAN_FEC_7_8 | FE_CAN_FEC_AUTO |
						FE_CAN_QAM_16 | FE_CAN_QAM_64 | FE_CAN_QPSK |
						FE_CAN_TRANSMISSION_MODE_AUTO | FE_CAN_GUARD_INTERVAL_AUTO |
						FE_CAN_HIERARCHY_AUTO | FE_CAN_RECOVER | FE_CAN_2G_MODULATION);
			break;
    Then the plugin has to be build and compiled again. This seems to be dependent from the receiver's onboard CPU.

    So what should I have to do in detail on a SF4008 running SDG 8 ?

    Well, satipclient is already installed and as I wrote in #2, DVB-C is working as well.
    The problem is DVB-T2 which with the current version on the feed is not being recognized so the only way is to update the plugin by recompiling it.
    Since I have never done this before I don't know how to start.

    Anyway running the command you have told me (suppose you have updated the plugin on the feed) this is the result:
    Code:
    root@sf4008:~# opkg install oe-satipclient
Installing oe-satipclient (1.0+git25+7baa4c7) on root
Downloading http://188.165.252.42/feeds/satdreamgr-8/armv7ahf-neon/oe-satipclient_1.0+git25+7baa4c7-r0_armv7ahf-neon.ipk.
To remove package debris, try `opkg remove oe-satipclient`.
To re-attempt the install, try `opkg install oe-satipclient`.
Collected errors:
 * check_data_file_clashes: Package oe-satipclient wants to install file /etc/init.d/satipclient
        But that file is already provided by package  * satipclient
 * check_data_file_clashes: Package oe-satipclient wants to install file /usr/bin/satipclient
        But that file is already provided by package  * satipclient
root@sf4008:~# root@sf4008:~# opkg install oe-satipclient
 * check_data_file_clashes: Package oe-satipclient wants to install file /usr/bin/satipclient
        But that file is already provided by package  * satipclient
root@sf4008:~#
    Shall I remove it and reinstall the plugin just as it recommends ?

    Re: satipclient

    no, nothing has updated,
    but there are 2 different plugins on the feed.

    try to remove the plugin from the receiver,(reboot) and than give again the command to download the o.e version... and see the results

    After that nothing has been changed. DVB-T2 cannot be scanned since it is seems that it is not defined in VTUNER.cpp

    Look how it behaves:

    First of all I have activated now the SATIP Server on the TV as Terrestrial and connected to the UHF antenna which is able to receive these frequencies in DVB-T2/HEVC:
    https://tvhelfer.de/location/96



    Changing the vtuner.conf to
    Code:
    0=desc:Panasonic VIErA,ipaddr:192.168.0.128,tuner_type:DVB-T2,uuid:4D454930-0400-1000-8001-B46C479D2E7A,vtuner_type:satip_client
    after a restart one can see this:



    but you cannot scan it since it sees a satellite tuner:

    When vtuner.conf is configured to DVB-T instead the virtual Tuner is recognized correctly:
    Code:
    0=desc:Panasonic VIErA,ipaddr:192.168.0.128,tuner_type:DVB-T,uuid:4D454930-0400-1000-8001-B46C479D2E7A,vtuner_type:satip_client






    but this does not help here since the transmissions are in DVB-T2/HEVC.
