IPTV and multirecord (revisited)

[kcmcdona]

We had discussed this issue in April and just never got back to it. I'm now needing this feature, and wish to pursue it further. I have 3.2.9 installed, and utilizing IPTV. It works well with one recording. But as soon as I try to start a second recording, I receive an error indicating that no tuners are available. I have had the impression that IPTV would utilize multirecord functionality to support more than one recording or live TV session. I have included a log file, but I find nothing in the log that would indicate that the second recording was even attempted. It appeared to me that the error was reported on some earlier validation criteria before it ever tried to attempt starting the recording.

The IPTV system utilizes the following format. It utilizes UDP, with a different Multicast IP address for each channel. The port number is the same for each channel, so thus channel 2 might be: 239.16.255.2:30120 and channel 4 would be: 239.16.255.4:30120

Any ideas on how to get IPTV to utilize multirecord?

That's exactly the same issue I'v had, asked about and never got any clear answer.

That's what it's supposed to do, but unfortunately due to a mistake it's limited to a single stream. I'll fix it for the next release.
