TV Station!

Has anyone solution for xmltv on synology?

Looks like someone has done it here http://www.silicondust.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=8941&sid=2d1fc1b562c8a752bf21b3d378a3d38d

ok, native tvhheadend compile - this was for a ds210j (arm based)

First you need to install the correct bootstrap for your device, if you haven't already

Code: Select all

cd /volume1/@tmp
wget http://wizjos.endofinternet.net/synology/archief/syno-mvkw-bootstrap_1.2-7_arm-ds111.xsh
chmod +x syno-mvkw-bootstrap_1.2-7_arm-ds111.xsh
sh syno-mvkw-bootstrap_1.2-7_arm-ds111.xsh
reboot


Now you need a few dependancies

Code: Select all

ipkg update
ipkg upgrade

ipkg install optware-devel
ipkg install git
ipkg install openssl
ipkg install gcc
ipkg install openssl-dev


download the tvheadend source

Code: Select all

mkdir -p /opt/tvheadend
git clone https://github.com/andoma/tvheadend.git /opt/tvheadend
cd /opt/tvheadend


you need to edit the Makefile, change

Code: Select all

MKBUNDLE = $(CURDIR)/support/mkbundle

to

Code: Select all

MKBUNDLE = bash $(CURDIR)/support/mkbundle

you then need to update a few libraries

Code: Select all

cp /opt/arm-none-linux-gnueabi/lib/libpthread-2.5.so /opt/arm-none-linux-gnueabi/lib/libpthread-2.5.so.bk
cp /lib/libpthread.so.0 /opt/arm-none-linux-gnueabi/lib/libpthread-2.5.so

cp /opt/lib/libssl.so.0.9.8 /opt/arm-none-linux-gnueabi/lib
cp /opt/lib/libssl.so.0.9.8 /lib
cp /opt/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.8 /lib


compile time

Code: Select all

export CC=gcc

bash configure \
--host=armle-unknown-linux \
--target=armle-unknown-linux \
--build=i686-pc-linux \
--disable-avahi \
--release \
--openssl=/opt/lib \
--prefix=/opt/tvheadend

make

make install


to give it a test run

Code: Select all

TVHROOT="/opt/tvheadend"
TVHNAME="tvheadend"
TVHBIN="${TVHROOT}/bin/${TVHNAME}"
TVHUSER="${TVHNAME}"

/opt/tvheadend/bin/tvheadend start -C


Ctrl-C to stop it

I can post up how I've compiled the dvbhdhomerun driver too, but I haven't been able to get tvheadend to open the frontend yet.

We just released our Windows Support package in order to allow Streaming TV from the Synology NAS to Windows Mediacenter or DVBViewer (other applications might work too but are not tested yet).





Networkscan



connect a device by doubleclicking a deviceentry which was discovered by the networkscan, finally list connected devices (unloading works the same just doubleclicking the entry)

Why would you do this instead of just plugging the usb stick into the PC ? Does the NAS handle the recording schedule, or does the PC still have to be on to record ?

[sundtek]

1. no need to run around with a dongle in your apartment, it will just work with the notebook via wireless Lan (you only need to adjust the antenna once), it's quite good with Ultrabooks. In apartments with a weak signal of course this makes things much easier.

2. it works with multiple PCs at the same time, it can be connected to the settopbox - but when not in use it can also be used with a PC (the software allows monitoring of how many users are connected). As long as the same channel/(transponder) is tuned in multiple clients can connect and stream at the same time.

3. DVB-T is just the start for us, our devices also support ATSC, ISDB-T, DVB-C and DVB-S2 (DVB_C and DVB-S/S2 are usually fixed in apartments, so no need to use a dedicated TV cable in the apartment anymore just use ethernet or wifi)

4. capturing is also on our list, however DVB-C and DVB-S/S2 are first.

It's not only limited to NAS systems our drivers basically work with every 2.6/3.x Linux System and Architecture (MIPS, PPC, ARM, x86, SH4, viac6) within 20-30 seconds as long as it has USB. However the NAS System is a good target since the disk storage is great for capturing TV.

+1 for TV Station

HDHomerun support in synology would be perfect for most users.

Hi Sundtek,

This is really great news, i think is what i need when im traveling to watch TV at home, connecting trough a VPN connection.

Could you make a small post on what is needed, and how to install your tuner on a synology? Maybe you could just make the first how-to with some headings, then i think it is possible to google and research the rest, for now!!

Keep up the great work, thanks!!

Hi,

currently it's limited to home (Wifi or wired LAN) use only due high bandwidth requirement (3.5-15 mbit)
We are working on some h264 transcoder device for allowing transcoding directly on the NAS system itself.

The setup is pretty easy, just install the network driver and doubleclick the discovered device to connect to it, afterwards start Windows Mediacenter or DVBViewer (those are currently tested) and voila you can watch TV at home via Wifi or wired LAN.

The streamingservice supports multiple clients at the same time )but don't change the channel when everyone is watching the same TV show!
The scanning tool will show up if someone else is already using the device.

Currently we support DVB-C, DVB-T, DVB-S/S2 and ATSC

excuse, so just attack a dvb-t stick to the USB port of the NAS, install the program on the PC and watch TV?

only works with the stik sundtek?

congratulations for the great job done

I m definetly intrested in what u guys are going to be able to do with that much architecture support. Maybe even connecting in with a usb host cable to an android phone might be possible.
And when u guys get a hardware h264 encoder in your tv sticks then it would get even easyer because streaming from home would becomes possible.

exactly!

yes, it's easier for us to focus on a few devices only and supporting them completely.

congratulations for the great job done

thanks

And when u guys get a hardware h264 encoder in your tv sticks then it would get even easyer because streaming from home would becomes possible.

we are already testing our h264 transcoder prototype, one thing for sure it might need an active USB hub or 2 USB ports (1 Ampere, one USB port only delivers 0.5 Amps usually)

I've now got tvheadend running on my DS210J with a silicon dust hdhomerun tuner !
