Luke 37063 Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 in the plugin settings you can limit it to your favorite hdhomerun channels. you can also use all of the normal emby facilities to hide content 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would love to remove the Spanish channels, and non HD duplicates. In schedules direct you can edit your channels that you want to appear and not appear. For example, I go in to my account and edit my listing and click on channel 4 (very low signal from Milwaukie) and it will remove them from listing. See below I get stations from both Chicago & South Bend and 95% signal + for all of them listed in RED Edited July 22, 2015 by drakus72 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bennymac 47 Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 If all the aussie's out there could complete the survey at www.schedulesdirect.org/survey to possibly get them to support Australia that would be good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pir8radio 1292 Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 (edited) @@Luke will the core "EmbyTV" show details on the emby dashboard? similar to what i see when users are watching movies? Maybe include what channel or whatever they are watching maybe (if possible) what tuner they are consuming (1, 2, or 3)? One thing that annoys me now, i see the LED lit on HDHomerun showing someone is using a tuner, but the emby dashboard shows no users streaming..

jimmer 1 Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 I have been using server wmc with some success but would like to try this on my second emby server this would be used to stream local un encrypted channels for my kids at college Added the plugin but it doesn't see any channels w/o schedules direct I don't really need the schedules - just the channel list for this to access Any way to get the plugin to populate channels w/o schedules direct? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hifiaudio2 47 Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 (edited) So I got this up and running, and can see the guide and tune channels in the web client, but the Android TV client on my Nvidia Shield cannot tune a channel. I can see the guide and everything, but trying to tune a channel comes up with a spinning circle, the world "trans" on the screen for most channels (maybe the 720p ones but not the 1080i?) and then either it just sits there forever or eventually tells me it is "Unable to play video". Also the FFmpeg task on the server seems to keep going even if the Emby Android TV app has been terminated. The channels do play on my Nexus 6 with the normal Android app, just not my Shield with the ATV app. Edited August 2, 2015 by hifiaudio2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14912 Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 The mobile app is forcing a transcode due to the bitrate setting it has embedded. The next beta of the ATV app will also force Live TV to transcode as (as you've found out) direct streaming doesn't actually work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hifiaudio2 47 Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 (edited) I messed around with the series recording function today. Have to say again how light years ahead of the Silicondust DVR program that EmbyTV is. So intuitive to be able to set recordings from the web guide, pick what days of the week to monitor or record the show from, pick new shows only, all channels, etc. Not sure why SD is so far behind but kudos to the Emby developers. Does the recorded show get transcoded as well, or it is "natively" recorded to a file for playback and its up to the playback software whether transcoding ends up being needed? Is the transcoding issue a technical hurdle that is going to be difficult to overcome, as in does SiliconDust make it intentionally or unintentionally difficult for other software to hook right into the mpeg stream from the HDHR Connect box?

Luke 37063 Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 we'll decide later about transcoding on the fly vs doing after the recording. it might end up just being afterwards, as most people will probably want their recording to remain salvaged in the event of some kind of transcoding failure.

hifiaudio2 47 Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 I agree that leaving the recorded file intact as it came from the tuner is best. But is being able to natively stream from the tuner something that looks like a likely big problem? What makes it hard to grab the Mpeg2 stream over DLNA?

There are a lot of variables in "an MPEG2 stream" and, as we've found out through testing, the variation being delivered by the HDHR is not compatible with either the native Android player or VLC on the box. At least not in any way we have been able to figure out. Our assumption at this point is that the apps that are supporting this have internal decoders that understand the exact combination the HDHR is sending. Our hope is that the newer version of VLC will also have this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I stand corrected. Someone at work had a spare Roku so I just wanted to see the interface compared to clunky, loud, heat-producing HTPCs I have and was blown away by the Emby channel. So then I decided to install the Emby TV plugin and I am able to tune channels just fine without schedules direct. Even fully do-not-copy cable card channels that Homerun View refuses to view (but WMC works with of course) are coming in fine. I'm extremely impressed with what I'm seeing. IT doesn't look like I can try out recordings since I can't find a way to manually record by time, only guide programs? But still, I was really curious about this becoming a replacement for WMC with the HD Homerun and I'm amazed at what I've seen just in the past few hours.

(http://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/24021-nothing-shows-under-scheduled-header-in-livetv/) This whole thing is undergoing a complete re-vamp. It will become a core feature and the plug-in will become obsolete. The developer of the plug-in is not around anymore it seems anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With just a few quirks, I think the current plug-in works okay for now so you can continue using it. Just know that it will be coming back better than ever in a future server release.

You might try to add the day after the recording as well and see if that work's. I know both this plugin and the core have this issue right now.
