Encrypted IPTV channels?

[Reddwarf]

How does npvr handle encrypted iptv channels? I see no option for decrypting...?

[sub]

It handles AES encrypted m3u8 streams, following the standard. ie if key URLs are specified on a media chunk, it'll download those keys and decrypt. This is used on our local New Zealand TV channels.

Na, I'm thinking of encrypted content like when you have a subscription and use a smartcard with reader, NewCS and Acamd, we have that in Norway...

I've never encountered those types of streams. They're not supported in NextPVR.

Any chance you can add support for them? Like Multidec for tuner channels?

Probably not, unless I can get access to the signals and a smartcard etc. I'd probably wait until I see more demand for this. You're the first person to ever mention this type of service.

Hm, can't it be done like for dvb-s channels?

It's a very significant amount of development and testing, so needs real signals etc to test with, even if I did reuse bits of the other multidec code.
