Yaobing:
Thanks.

On Mac or Linux we are not able to scan for channels using the tuners directly.  For these non-Windows OS's we rely on either the Sat>IP device itself or the user, to provide a channel list file.  Since your device is not providing one, (satip:X_SATIPM3U element is empty), we are left with only one option: "User provided channel list file".

If the device is capable, you can run its setup and scan for channels, then maybe it will provide an .m3u file.  If that is not possible, you can use the downloaded m3u file (as linked by you in your first post).  You need to download the rtsp version (channels-rtsp.m3u).  The file contains text lines like the following:


--- Code: ---#EXTM3U
#EXTINF:-1 tvg-id="5accfb7f40fd9d60bf3598c720519aba" tvg-chno="100",BBC One South
rtsp://10.8.12.11/?src=1&freq=10818&pol=V&msys=DVBS&mtype=QPSK&sr=22000&pids=0,1,16,17,258,5200,5201,5203
#EXTINF:-1 tvg-id="df3f9e27cd1110bd0ed2e9d7d245499d" tvg-chno="101",BBC One HD
rtsp://10.8.12.11/?src=1&freq=10847&pol=V&msys=DVBS2&mtype=8PSK&sr=23000&pids=0,1,16,17,260,5400,5401,5404
...
...

--- End code ---


Each #EXTINF: line together with the URL that follows it represents a channel.

Open the file using a text editor and replace all instances of the IP address "10.8.12.11" with the IP address of your device on your LAN "192.168.xxx.yyy"

No joy I'm afraid.  Have Wireshark network traffic capture when MC30 connects and also a traffic capture of when EyeTV program is scanning for satellite channels.  Don't know if their of any use to you but might be worth a shot.

When you open the EyeTV...pcapng file you'll get a complaint about a packet being cut short.  You can ignore it, just press OK.
Also attached mu3 file used for MC30.  Looks OK to me but you might spot something erroneous.

Have a feeling EyeTV is using something proprietary but then NPVR can scan it.  Will try to get it running again and do a packet capture.

I have not had a chance to look at your Wireshark files yet.  Not sure if they will help.

Right now, the question is, supposing that your device does not produce an m3u channel list file, whether MC can load the m3u file if you provide one (i.e. one that you download and modify) to it.

Also, would you be able to tune to a channel if you manually create one?  You can manually create any type of channels supported in MC, including Sat>IP channels.

And finally, you can update to the latest version of MC.  There have been a number of changes since build 41.

It is not in your attachment.  I see only Archive.zip which contains a couple of .pcapng files and a subfolder containing one other .pcapng file.

OldGoat:
Sorry, missed that.  Here it is.
