Request for supporting Ceton devices on Linux

[mvallevand]

That is promising that means you can find the line in opendct.py around 81 or 82 after the command that is similar and replace it with

Code:

xml.write(('    <args>-c "/var/opt/nextpvr/scripts/opendct.sh {channel} \\"' + device + '\\" ' + str(openport) + '\"</args>\n'))

and rerun the INSTALL

Then go into NextPVR and remove the Ceton Extras (hold the Ctrl Key) and then rescan and import them again. Or just stop the service and delete npvr.db3 and restart with a clean slate.

If that doesn't work upload your opendct.py file and I can do it.

It launches now but it stays on the waiting for device screen. No video ever comes threw and I have to manually stop the stream or the tuner keeps going

[mvallevand]

I would first need the NextPVR log to make sure I got it right. These test with file output would need to work now too.

bash -c "/var/opt/nextpvr/scripts/opendct.sh 1110 \"DCT-Ceton InfiniTV PCIe (00-80-84-b9) Tuner 4\" 7822" | ffplay -i pipe:

bash -c "/var/opt/nextpvr/scripts/opendct.sh 1110 \"DCT-Ceton InfiniTV PCIe (00-80-84-b9) Tuner 4\" 7822" > somefile.ts

ffplay never gets a stream
second command works. somefile.ts

somefile.ts can be found where ever the command line generates from

[mvallevand]

For the first one could you pipe to ffprobe instead?

Code:

bash -c "/var/opt/nextpvr/scripts/opendct.sh 1110 \"DCT-Ceton InfiniTV PCIe (00-80-84-b9) Tuner 4\" 7822" | ffprobe -i pipe:

It would useful getting your zipped opendct.py now.

Is it possible you saved opendct.sh with a Windows editor somewhere in your testing?

Martin

[run088]

maybe. Yesterday I think I fixed line 82 with notepad++ coping your code into it. Then I copied that file back over the old one. I was half a sleep when I did it but I think thats what I did. that was the py not the sh

[mvallevand]

I think that is the \r you are seeing. you can run dos2unix on opendct.sh if you have it to see if that changes things.

Martin

[run088]

That worked. Should I run it on the py file?
