deganza 2 Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 Hi I've a TVHeadend Server 4.3.1787 and new emby version on a ubuntu 18.10 installation. When I try to load the following m3u-List from TVH in emby http://emby:emby@localhost:9981/playlist/channels.m3u I get the following error (at the end of the topic). If I create on TVH an user without name and password the I can connect in emby. Also I can connect if emby is installed on another server and is connecting instead over localhost with the real IP-address of the server. So from outside I can connect but not from inside the server. Do you have an idea what I'm doing wrong? 2019-03-24 11:41:19.375 Info HttpClient: Found userInfo in url: emby:emby ... url: http://emby:emby@localhost:9981/playlist/channels.m3u2019-03-24 11:41:19.375 Info HttpClient: GET http://emby:emby@localhost:9981/playlist/channels.m3u2019-03-24 11:41:19.384 Error HttpServer: Error processing request *** Error Report *** Version: 4.1.0.16 Command line: /opt/emby-server/system/EmbyServer.dll -programdata /var/lib/emby -ffdetect /opt/emby-server/bin/ffdetect -ffmpeg /opt/emby-server/bin/ffmpeg -ffprobe /opt/emby-server/bin/ffprobe -restartexitcode 3 -updatepackage emby-server-deb_{version}_amd64.deb Operating system: Unix 4.18.0.16 64-Bit OS: True 64-Bit Process: True User Interactive: True Processor count: 8 Program data path: /var/lib/emby Application directory: /opt/emby-server/system MediaBrowser.Model.Net.HttpException: MediaBrowser.Model.Net.HttpException: Unauthorized at Emby.Server.Implementations.HttpClientManager.CoreHttpClientManager.SendAsyncInternal(HttpRequestOptions options, String httpMethod) at Emby.Server.Implementations.HttpClientManager.CoreHttpClientManager.SendAsync(HttpRequestOptions options, String httpMethod) at Emby.LiveTV.TunerHosts.M3UTunerHost.Validate(TunerHostInfo info) at Emby.LiveTV.LiveTvManager.SaveTunerHost(TunerHostInfo info, Boolean dataSourceChanged) at MediaBrowser.Api.LiveTv.LiveTvService.Post(AddTunerHost request) at Emby.Server.Implementations.Services.ServiceExecGeneral.GetTaskResult(Task task) at Emby.Server.Implementations.Services.ServiceHandler.ProcessRequestAsync(HttpListenerHost appHost, IRequest httpReq, IResponse httpRes, ILogger logger, String operationName, CancellationToken cancellationToken) at Emby.Server.Implementations.HttpServer.HttpListenerHost.RequestHandler(IRequest httpReq, String urlString, String host, String localPath, CancellationToken cancellationToken) Source: Emby.Server.Implementations TargetSite: Void MoveNext() Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37214 Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Looks like TVH is sending back a response saying Unauthorized. I think this requires a setting in TVH, is that right @@Gerrit507 ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deganza 2 Posted March 28, 2019 Author Share Posted March 28, 2019 just use the following link as Live-TV m3U-list: http://localhost:9981/playlist/channels and Emby will use the user without credentials. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually it won't. However you can get this to work if you setup anonymous login for your network which it sounds like you did. But that still doesn't help when you can't login as an admin to the console to make changes. Seems very buggy lately. You can even start it with "-C" and login and set new credentials but then a few minutes later are locked back out again. That makes it next to impossible to make any changes if the system is being used since you can't restart it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alturismo 37 Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 may try changing the auth method, see attachement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlo 4331 Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 I mean when running through the setup wizard, when you get to the username/password fields. Seems like the long standing bug (years) that if you enter anything here besides leaving it blank will cause lockout issues where you can't login to the WEB INTERFACE. Leaving the blank (default) username/password field and filling in a trusted network does work around the problem but isn't that secure. How much security you need for TVH in a local environment I guess is the real question. Probably not a big deal to most people, especially if using something like Emby or Kodi to access TVH since you aren't logging in/using TVH directly anyway. To me the biggest hurdle for using TVH is lack of good concise documentation. It's not an easy setup to do the first time and has a big learning curve for most people the first couple of setups. It's really nice however when you get it setup and working especially merging channels from different devices, setting priorities, etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alturismo 37 Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 hmm, its been a while since i setted up my tvheadend, but when i remember it was working here ... i once saw this behavior on libreelec tvheadend ... but then i left it blank, finished setup, added my user and deleted the * user. as you see above i have a admin user external AND my LAN user (just to simplify), i also could use the user:pass schema, but makes it more complicated to always enter user credentials for loacal mashines ... and yes, theres a learning curve with tvheadend, but in the end ... you have a perfect tv backend, like u described also with several input sources for 1 channel (here as sample DVB-C and DVB-S). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deganza 2 Posted March 30, 2019 Author Share Posted March 30, 2019 may try changing the auth method, see attachement I can still login to the console as admin. I've installed TVH and emby on the same ubuntu machine. Then I created an user without credentials and with allowed network 127.0.0.1. Everything is fine so. I cab even include oder exclude some channels on this user. The auth method is plain and digest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Q-Droid 670 Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 Could it be a specific platform/build issue? I have never been locked out though I've always run stable release. Over time my config has had 4-6 users with different access levels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerrit507 24 Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 Sorry for the late response. Change Authentication Type to "Plain" or "Both Plain and Digest" in tvheadend http server settings. This fixes 99% of login issues with tvheadend, because emby doesn't support the digest method of tvheadend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
