Hi, I believe Emby Server is not reading #EXTINF data correctly in m3u playlists. I had to alter the following entries in my playlist #EXTINF:-1 tvg-id="7",7 Digital Melbourne #EXTINF:-1 tvg-id="71",7 Digital Melbourne to #EXTINF:-1 tvg-id="7",7Digital Melbourne #EXTINF:-1 tvg-id="71",7Digital Melbourne Emby was not parsing these correctly, and was not mapping them to the correct channel number. I am guessing that if the channel name begins with a digit, it is read as a channel number.

Hello Emby Team, i want to use the build in live tv / tv tuner /m3u to play the live channels of this list: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/free-greek-iptv/greek-iptv/master/android.m3u i use the url method, i tried the m3u file method too but it didn't work either. execute read and write access was given. Basicaly for the test emby-server had root access. I works just fine with the iptv plug-in :S any idea ? Best Regards Rafael

Hello, I have one problem channel when I try to play it over an Emby Connect connection. It works fine on my LAN. I've tried multiple external connections and no matter how fast, this one channel stutters. I've also try lowering the resolution to the minimum and it makes no diff. I can send the M3U for this channel over PM if you need it. I have attached the FFMPEG log. Thanks, Jason FFMPEG.txt

Hi, Can you help me for this m3u link : http://notv.tk:8880/get.php?username=Tvingoplus_FR&password=aQVwG5DKqF&type=m3u It works in vlc but when I enter it in m3u tuner, it shows channels but doesn't work. Thank you

It would be great to have full support of m3u playlists so that external playlist can be easily imported and modified through Emby. It would be a much stronger music server! Plex doesn't do that, so it would be a point in favour of Emby too

Think I've seen a few m3u channel won't work topics floating around, possibly since beta 3.3.1.10 appeared, and maybe a few comments about its fixed, which is why I haven't mentioned similar stuff like this. So, as far as I can tell m3u live tv hasn't worked for me in Chrome since version 1.10, and am up to 1.13 at the mo. Am attaching logs were I tried to play one channel and just got the spinning circle, then tried the same in ET 3.0.0 and it played fine after about a second. Am on Windows 10, playing on same machine as server. embyserver.txt

This may sound like a strange request, but when I first added my M3U file the channels and guide populated with some very nice (I believe default) Channel Icon with the Flag of the country it was from behind it. I actually kind of liked it because it allowed me to know what country the Channel was from (A&E with USA vs A&E with Spanish Flag for example) What happened though is after EPG refreshed after 24 hours, then the icons were replaced by just the channel icons, the png that were bigger, perhaps more poppy and they look nice, but I would love to see if there is a way to retain the Flag Backed Ones somehow, or to have the Flag in the background of the newer ones. I can provide screenshots if needed.

Hi I have loaded in an m3u and guide xml fine with Emby Server however am having a strange issue with the sorting in the guide. It appears as though emby is picking up the channel number from the stream title rather than using the sort order of the the m3u itself or using the name of the channel correctly. Have attached two images below: Is there any way I can resolve this?

I am a new to EMBY came over from Plex, primarily because of the way EMBY integrates my my M3U and HDHomerun on one platform. Running it on a Qnap 251+ with 16GB Ram. I recently installed the QNAP beta build provided by Emby and it seems to run everything just a bit faster than the one I originally got from the Qnap community. However the load times for the HDHomerun and the M3U are slow to load when changing channels take 14 seconds and 12 seconds. When I load on other apps both only take about 1-2 seconds at the most. I have tried some of the recommendations for other post however they don’t seem to help much. I have attached my logs to help maybe get me in the right direction. I access the Emby server via chrome on my Mac laptop and Emby Android TV app through my Nvidia shield. I loaded both M3U and HDhomerun to test and replicate the slowness. Love the product thus far just want to reduce this initial load times. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you Log (1).txt Log.txt

So I've spent time reading through everything on the forum about IPTV and M3U tuners. Is there any reason why we can't treat each M3U tuner as only being able to tune 1 channel from the channel xml list or have that as a user defined setting? From the reading it seems like the M3U tuner is considered to be "unlimited" streams by default. If limited to 1 stream you could create as many m3u tuners for a source as available connections. Emby would also be able to mark them available or watching as they are used Example screenshot of how my tuners would be created if this was the case: two hdhomeruns - 4x tuners 6 m3u tuners for iptv provider 1 - provider allows 6 concurrent connections 2 m3u tuners for iptv provider 2 - provider also allows you to pay for 6, paying for 2 As they are used, they get set to watching. When all are used it acts just like hdhomeruns and errors out when that source is out of connections. I assumed this was how it would work by default based on how physical tuners worked. Another option would be allowing us to specify how many connections per m3u source and building that number of virtual tuners for that source. Probably a cleaner way to do it.

Hello All, I finally took the time and configured IPTV in Emby and now I'm wondering why I didn't do this long ago! Live TV is awesome in Emby, but I have a couple of questions: 1. With only 1 tuner, how does Emby handle locking the tuner when in use? It seems if Emby is recording and switch channels, it just stops recording and takes me to the new channel. Same thing happens if go to a different channel on another device. Am I missing something in config, or is this by design? 2. Can I just add another M3U tuner (assuming my IPTV provider supports multiple streams)? 3. Are there any plans to improve the EPG support? Spaceboy was kind enough to give me his AccessDB to build the EPG using SchedulesDirect, but it would be nice to have a simpler solution. 4. I find the guide is slow to load. Is this because my server is underpowered? Any answers are much appreciated!

Hi I'm hoping you can help me with this problem. I have the latest Emby server on windows 7 64-bit and I spent hours setting up my Live Tv yesterday with the Live tv section on the server. I put a url in for the iptv service i subscribe to and also put 4 schedules direct epgs and the xml epg from my iptv service. I spent several hours matching channels up and getting the guid to put the channels in what order i wanted them. And when I went back on this morning the server changed the url address to an old one that i use to use. And it deleted the xml epg also. I don't know why this happened? I did a restore from the server configuration plug-in and it still has this old m3u url in it? I have attached my server logs from 4am in the morning and then the server log from when i went back on around 10am. Let me know how to prevent this from happening please

Hi, I have been playing with emby for a couple of weeks now and have everything setup as I want, all working as it should except the Live TV. I am using a M3U list which adds the channels as expected, and the channels are list correctly, play and work correctly, however, for some reason emby has also added a couple of movies from my movies folder (not all movies just a random few), to the channel list? Firstly, why has emby done this, and secondly how can I remove the movies from the channel list and clean it up? Cheers in advance.

I am trying to map OTA channels to xmltv, but I have run into an issue. Some OTA channels have "programs" which appear as sub channels in the form of "chan.sub". It looks like emby isn't parsing them appropriately, which results in the inability to properly map them and get a guide. here is the channel lineup #EXTM3U #EXTINF:0, 2.1 - CBFT-DT http://127.0.0.1:8866/live?channel=2.1 #EXTINF:0, 3.1 - WCAX-HD http://127.0.0.1:8866/live?channel=3.1 #EXTINF:0, 3.2 - Movies! http://127.0.0.1:8866/live?channel=3.2 #EXTINF:0, 5.1 - WPTZ-HD http://127.0.0.1:8866/live?channel=5.1 #EXTINF:0, 5.2 - The CW http://127.0.0.1:8866/live?channel=5.2 #EXTINF:0, 5.3 - Me TV http://127.0.0.1:8866/live?channel=5.3 #EXTINF:0, 6.1 - CBMT-DT http://127.0.0.1:8866/live?channel=6.1 #EXTINF:0, 10.1 - CFTM-HD http://127.0.0.1:8866/live?channel=10.1 #EXTINF:0, 12.1 - CFCF http://127.0.0.1:8866/live?channel=12.1 #EXTINF:0, 15.1 - CKMI-HD http://127.0.0.1:8866/live?channel=15.1 #EXTINF:0, 15.2 - CKMI-SD http://127.0.0.1:8866/live?channel=15.2 #EXTINF:0, 17.1 - CIVM-HD http://127.0.0.1:8866/live?channel=17.1 #EXTINF:0, 33.1 - VPBS http://127.0.0.1:8866/live?channel=33.1 #EXTINF:0, 33.2 - VPBS+ http://127.0.0.1:8866/live?channel=33.2 #EXTINF:0, 33.3 - CREATE http://127.0.0.1:8866/live?channel=33.3 #EXTINF:0, 33.4 - WORLD http://127.0.0.1:8866/live?channel=33.4 #EXTINF:0, 35.1 - CFJP-DT http://127.0.0.1:8866/live?channel=35.1 #EXTINF:0, 62.1 - CJNT http://127.0.0.1:8866/live?channel=62.1 Here is what emby saves from the channel list above.

I wanted to share my experimentation with an old generation HDHR3-US (HDHomeRun) which is an NON DLNA device. My goal is to try and centralize all video related activities to emby as much as possible, and that includes better integration with "Live TV", auto-transcode, etc. Being stuck with an older gen HDHomeRun, I was previously relying on the good old NextPVR for the recording piece. It turns out that the more recent versions of NextPVR now has a feature which enables it to "proxy" the streams as DLNA! So here is what I did : 1- Point emby to new live tv tuner M3U source: http://nextpvr_server:8866/channels 2- Share the xmltv file which I had setup for the NextPRV server 3- Point the XMLTV provider in emby to this shared file 4- Map channels from the m3u tuner to the xmltv channels 5- Remove NextPVR Plugin 6- Cancel NextPVR Recordings 7- Schedule recordings in emby 8- Setup auto-transcode options, etc It's not the most efficient method to record, as the video stream had to be read by the NextPvr host, which streams it over to the emby server, but my 2 servers are on a 1gbps switch so this won't hurt internet browsing (even at 30mbps). I wonder if there are ways to setup VLC or some other software locally to avoid the 2 hops. Anyhow, I'll see how this works (or not) in the long run...!

Hello, I seems to be having a common issue; Live TV stop working after a few seconds. Can someone please help? Many thanks in advance

Hi, Emby is really fantastic (and that’s why I decided 2 weeks ago to buy a Premiere license to support the team), but in my opinion, Audio Playlist management could/should be greatly improved. But maybe that as a newbie, I missed something or my audio management strategy is inadequate : to avoid file duplication, I save only one copy of a song in my mp3 folder and use Playlists to “virtually” define Albums and Compilations (~500 Playlists currently). Thus, to manage my music collection within Emby, I needed first a tool to import my m3u playlists. A java app has been proposed by another forum member, but it only imports one m3u at a time. Thus, I decided to write a small software in Access 2016 VBA (Sorry, I'm don’t manage other programming languages and some databases functionality were required to deal with multiple users). The Access software and a short guide are attached. Please be understanding and not too critical, I’m not an expert ! The software was tested on 2 different computers running windows 8 or 10. It’s provided as is and I can’t ensure that it will run on all configurations… ​Hope this could help others... Regards. ​ m3u Playlist4Emby V0.zip

Hi I get a M3U file from my IPTV provider. It looks like this #EXTM3U #EXTINF:-1,FI: Channel 1 http://example.com/live/channel1.ts #EXTINF:-1,FI: Channel 2 http://example.com/live/channel2.ts #EXTINF:-1,FI: Channel 3 http://example.com/live/channel3.ts ....and so on If i use it in emby Live TV, all channels are called -1,FI: if i look under Live TV -> Channels. If i open the playlist in VLC it looks fine.

Hi, I'm trying to use Live TV for my ISV streaming box called "Freebox" (French ISV called "Free"). The M3U playlist is sucessfully parsed, but streaming is refusing to work. The Emby log show the error "could not find codec parameters". http://emby.deliot.com:8096/videos/6aada66f9b4d9fed9a1f7e935201ae7e/live.m3u8?DeviceId=16d1205516abaea507459123d9bf2de6&MediaSourceId=49f24e13089a46b0817b2d42dd3b680d&VideoCodec=h264&AudioCodec=ac3&AudioStreamIndex=-1&VideoBitrate=232279273&AudioBitrate=448000&MaxAudioChannels=6&Level=41&Profile=high&PlaySessionId=28e4e760a870474fa3c874cd185ef4ba&api_key=a310a1ce392b432382f310752e32d7db&CopyTimestamps=false&ForceLiveStream=false {"Protocol":"Rtsp","Id":"49f24e13089a46b0817b2d42dd3b680d","Path":"rtsp://mafreebox.freebox.fr/fbxtv_pub/stream?namespace=1&service=497&flavour=ld","Type":"Default","ReadAtNativeFramerate":false,"SupportsTranscoding":true,"SupportsDirectStream":false,"SupportsDirectPlay":true,"RequiresOpening":false,"RequiresClosing":false,"BufferMs":1500,"MediaStreams":[{"IsInterlaced":true,"IsDefault":false,"IsForced":false,"Type":"Video","Index":-1,"IsExternal":false,"IsTextSubtitleStream":false,"SupportsExternalStream":false},{"IsInterlaced":false,"IsDefault":false,"IsForced":false,"Type":"Audio","Index":-1,"IsExternal":false,"IsTextSubtitleStream":false,"SupportsExternalStream":false}],"PlayableStreamFileNames":[],"Formats":[],"RequiredHttpHeaders":{}} C:\Users\wmc\AppData\Roaming\MediaBrowser-Server\ffmpeg\20160401\ffmpeg.exe -fflags +genpts -i "rtsp://mafreebox.freebox.fr/fbxtv_pub/stream?namespace=1&service=497&flavour=ld" -map_metadata -1 -threads 0 -sn -codec:v:0 libx264 -pix_fmt yuv420p -preset superfast -crf 23 -b:v 232279273 -maxrate 232279273 -bufsize 464558546 -vsync vfr -profile:v high -level 41 -force_key_frames "expr:gte(t,n_forced*3)" -vf "yadif=0:-1:0" -sc_threshold 0 -codec:a:0 ac3 -ac 6 -ab 448000 -af "adelay=1,aresample=async=1" -hls_time 3 -start_number 0 -hls_list_size 0 -hls_base_url "hls/76711984f1c4970e9e0d55d205a75554/" -y "C:\Users\wmc\AppData\Roaming\MediaBrowser-Server\transcoding-temp\76711984f1c4970e9e0d55d205a75554.m3u8" ffmpeg version N-79173-gbe746ae Copyright (c) 2000-2016 the FFmpeg developers built with gcc 5.3.0 (GCC) configuration: --enable-gpl --enable-version3 --disable-w32threads --enable-avisynth --enable-bzlib --enable-fontconfig --enable-frei0r --enable-gnutls --enable-iconv --enable-libass --enable-libbluray --enable-libbs2b --enable-libcaca --enable-libfreetype --enable-libgme --enable-libgsm --enable-libilbc --enable-libmodplug --enable-libmfx --enable-libmp3lame --enable-libopencore-amrnb --enable-libopencore-amrwb --enable-libopenjpeg --enable-libopus --enable-librtmp --enable-libschroedinger --enable-libsnappy --enable-libsoxr --enable-libspeex --enable-libtheora --enable-libtwolame --enable-libvidstab --enable-libvo-amrwbenc --enable-libvorbis --enable-libvpx --enable-libwavpack --enable-libwebp --enable-libx264 --enable-libx265 --enable-libxavs --enable-libxvid --enable-libzimg --enable-lzma --enable-decklink --enable-zlib libavutil 55. 19.100 / 55. 19.100 libavcodec 57. 32.100 / 57. 32.100 libavformat 57. 29.101 / 57. 29.101 libavdevice 57. 0.101 / 57. 0.101 libavfilter 6. 40.102 / 6. 40.102 libswscale 4. 0.100 / 4. 0.100 libswresample 2. 0.101 / 2. 0.101 libpostproc 54. 0.100 / 54. 0.100 [rtsp @ 0000009460897fc0] UDP timeout, retrying with TCP [rtsp @ 0000009460897fc0] method SETUP failed: 461 Unsupported Transport rtsp://mafreebox.freebox.fr/fbxtv_pub/stream?namespace=1&service=497&flavour=ld: could not find codec parameters But trying the ffmpeg command line out of Emby is working fine: Input #0, rtsp, from 'rtsp://mafreebox.freebox.fr/fbxtv_pub/stream?namespace=1&service=497&flavour=ld': Metadata: title : unknown comment : unknown Duration: N/A, start: 5310.324211, bitrate: N/A Program 64553 Stream #0:3: Video: h264 (High) ([27][0][0][0] / 0x001B), yuv420p, 720x576 [SAR 64:45 DAR 16:9], 25 fps, 25 tbr, 90k tbn Stream #0:2(fra): Audio: aac (LC) ([15][0][0][0] / 0x000F), 48000 Hz, stereo, fltp, 141 kb/s Stream #0:4(qaa): Audio: aac (HE-AAC) ([15][0][0][0] / 0x000F), 48000 Hz, stereo, fltp, 68 kb/s Stream #0:0(qad): Audio: aac (HE-AAC) ([15][0][0][0] / 0x000F), 48000 Hz, stereo, fltp, 64 kb/s Stream #0:1(fra,fra,deu): Subtitle: dvb_teletext ([6][0][0][0] / 0x0006) [libx264 @ 000000000269dee0] using SAR=64/45 [libx264 @ 000000000269dee0] VBV bitrate (232279) > level limit (62500) [libx264 @ 000000000269dee0] VBV buffer (464558) > level limit (78125) [libx264 @ 000000000269dee0] using cpu capabilities: MMX2 SSE2Fast SSSE3 SSE4.2 AVX FMA3 AVX2 LZCNT BMI2 [libx264 @ 000000000269dee0] profile High, level 4.1 [hls @ 0000000002600960] Using AVStream.codec to pass codec parameters to muxers is deprecated, use AVStream.codecpar instead.

Hi, I have some problems with LIVE TV. 1º - If i add a channel to a local iptv list (m3u) i cant get channel in my server until i remove and add again. Is that correct? Is that the only way yo refresh a m3u list? 2º - I have a list like this: #EXTM3U #EXTINF:-1 channel-id="100" channel-name="channel ABC" tvg-logo="http://some.logo.link.100.png"group-title="groupA",channel name http;//some.stream.link.100.m3u8 #EXTINF:-1 channel-id="101" channel-name="channel DEF" tvg-logo="http://some.logo.link.101.png"group-title="groupA",channel name http;//some.stream.link.102.m3u8 #EXTINF:-1 channel-id="102" channel-name="channel GHI" tvg-logo="http://some.logo.link.102.png"group-title="groupA",channel name http;//some.stream.link.103.m3u8 and so on..... In live-tv section on web-browser, in channels tab, the channel 101 and 707 are displayed before everything else (see image). Is any reason that happen? I did a new installation of emby-server on my local machine and the list is displayed correctly. I did a clean cache in the server, remove and re-add, refresh channels, change name of the list from aaa.m3u to bbb.m3u, change the link of the channel, remove the lines of that 2 channels e re-add. The result is all the same, if the channels are in the list the order in web-browser is that one. In the emby add-on for kodi its even worst, because the order is by name and not by the number. I have a lots of channels, they all organized in the .m3u file, they are ordered properly. I think if the order in the web-browser, and in the order apps by the way, should be the order of the .m3u file. Or in alternative, it should be possible to order manually or by other criteria. If i add a xmtv file the order in the mapping list is the order in the files, so i cant understand way the view of the daily basis its not the same thing. I think this problem should be resolved if i do a clean install, but since i have the server running on a slow machine and i have a lots of media added to him, the reconfiguration will be a nightmare. I moved the data folder to a backup (to do a test) and start emby-server, its basically a new installation because all the settings are gone, i added the list and everything is fine, so i assume that its somting wrong with my db. 3º - In other scenario if i add the list with tvg-id tag, the names of every channel appear 2 times like 101 101, i don't understand why too. Maybe because the tvg-id is used to get the number and the name, but if that's the case the interface should display only one of them, even if i use the tvg-id and the tvg-name, the interface shows the same and complitly ignore tvg-name. 4º - Last but not least Its a suggestion. Would be awesome if the emby deal with the time-in xmltv, like, my xmltv have channels from different countries, and the hours are displayed like 201609011200 -0200, in this case the program is start 10:00 UTC, so if i am in UTC +1 in my time should be 11:00. _______ To all developers a huge thank you for this awesome media server.Keep up the good work!!

Currently I have an HDHR Prime on my network consuming 256 Clear QAM from my linear TV provider. In this configuration I don't have an M-Card installed, so I don't have the benefit of it mapping the RF Channels to Virtual Channels. Instead it creates its own RF to Virtual Channel map and assigns channel numbers in the 5000s. I've mapped these HDHR virtual 5000 number channels to the virtual channel number my linear TV provider assigns them in their network. My question is if Emby TV, or through the use of a M3U/XLTV file, will I eventually be able to create these virtual assignments myself to make up for the lack of an M-Card? If so, is there a tentative timeline? Thank you!

Hi and first of all thank you for the great EMBY server. I have an M3U playlist with http links inside that i have imported in to EMBY's Live TV. The links inside are access to media that is already transcoded to x264/aac but EMBY still insists on transcoding the media. Is there an option anywhere that i can use to stop this from happening? Any help on this would be great Thanks

Every time I try to play an album with a M3U file (headphones in red) (X-box music), the roku channel crashes.This didn't used to happen until a couple months ago. This has been very frustrating. i found that when i deleted that file the album would then load & finally play. Why is this?
