Great day Yaobing,
Thanks for your reaction sir,
To come back to your request and open-question for additional 'SAT-IP' featuring:
-i'm playing with a OctoNET SAT-IP set-up as we speak :-)
I can assure you that non-encrypted FTA channels the Digital Devices OctoNET server streams out are 100% compatible with MC22 :-)
Means i can open and 'see' them.
-Only issue are the encrypted/scrambles/Pay TV channels. I've been chatting this afternoon with Jorg, technical service contact at Digital Devices GmbH, btw a very nice and professional person
-We've set-up a TeamViewer session and he found out that the the string-format used by JRiver MC is slightly off from the one the OctoNET uses:
Near the end of the string the identification of the CI slot is not longer present. And so the requested Pay TV channel will not start
So in a nutshel, the OctoNET 'broadcasts' the saved (M3U listing) channels and MC22 receives this list when selecting the server perfectly.
Every detail for the offered channels is still present (by opening 'manage channels') except nothing about C.I. slots.
But when selecting a channel in MC and so requesting a stream - the string isn't the same anylonger; the needed CI details are missing in order to get the srambled channel decrypted.
When checking this feature by using VLC, Goodplayer and DD's own DD-TV software - the streams are playing - as the string is kept the same (no changes).
Yaobing shall i provide you a sample string of the OctoNET server, so you can compare ?
I'm guessing that cracking this nut would also be interesting to other users of SAT-IP tuners with CI support.
PS last-but-not-least, for me the scan function at the clients side isn't needed. Knowing the SAT-IP server can provide them itself and so to every client joining the netwerk = easier when having mutiple clients in your network
Cheers,
Steven.
