If it could use the channel number variable, something like this would work for all channels for DTV SHEF channel changing:

#Directv to detect emby server code#

Is there any way to have a 'pre-processing' field for each channel that could send the http header code to change the receiver channel via network hhtp command. It is interesting that if I substitute the HLS steam path in the M3U file with the DTV SHEF command (), when I select the channel in Emby the code gets sent to the receiver and the channel changes successfully on the receiver.but of course then Emby doesn't have a valid path to the stream to view the stream. (192.168.0.205 is the DirecTV receiver and 192.168.0.200 is the HDMI to network media encoder device/stream). For example, if I select the history channel I need Emby to send to change the DirecTV receiver to channel 269, then to connect to the to receive the stream. What I need is to trigger the channel to change on the Directv receiver when I select a different channel in Emby. m3u file linked to the M3U tuner, but all use the same HLS stream path: The channels are listed/linked separately in the.

Yes, I can exit the channel (stream) and select a different channel (same stream) in Emby - each channel is listed separately in Emby and EPG works correctly. Hi, you can stop and choose a different channel, right? I am thinking others with networked IR blasters may be attempting or requiring this same 'channel change via network trigger' functionality. I'm new to Emby so am still researching, any suggestions and ideas are appreciated! I know there are third party Emby add-ons that would work for this if I set up an additional server (such as TVHeadEnd), but I'd like to try get a fully functional solution within Emby (or at least without setting up a second media server) if at all possible. m3u8 stream? Or to configure redundant/alternate streams so it could first attempt to connect a stream to the SHEF path ( - which would fail to connect but would successfully change the channel on the STB, and then after connect to the alternate stream (the correct. I successfully confirmed using a browser (or even replacing the http stream address with the http SHEF command for a channel in the m3u file and selecting the channel with Emby) with will change the STB channel to 278.ĭoes anyone know of a way for Emby to sent the http SHEF command ( before connecting to the.

Everything works great and Emby plays the stream from the encoder, except I can't figure out how to get Emby to trigger a channel change on the DirecTV STB via my network using DirecTV SHEF (http command to the STB) when I select a channel and Emby opens the stream. Including the individual tags for tvg-id='' tvg-chno='' in the m3u file even correctly automatically mapped the channels and successfully downloaded the EPG using the 'Emby Guide Data' as my provider. m3u file containing all my DirecTV channels (all mapped to the same HLS stream IP path of the H.265 encoder). I was then easily able to add a LiveTV M3U tuner to my Emby server and create a. I was able to use a H.264/H.265 HDMI to network encoder to strip the DRM and convert my DirecTV STB HDMI output to a HLS stream via IP HTTP (.m3u8).
