Request for supporting Ceton devices on Linux

[mvallevand]

Ok that wouldn't work

Code:

opendct=/var/opt/nextpvr/scripts/opendct.py
python3 $opendct "START" %2 %1 %3 2> /dev/null
python3 $opendct "GET_SIZE" %2 2> /dev/null
python3 $opendct "STOP" %2 2> /dev/null

The NextPVR logs are available on the settings screen just attach the zips (with the new sh file) opendct logs depend on the o/s in linux it is /var/log/opendct

sudo command should not have mattered unless it cant be ran as root. I was in a root terminal at the time.

Did you import any of the Ceton extras? I am not seeing any attempt to play one.

Also some significant issues are happening with you HDHR are they working and available on the same LAN? Is it possible you are on a VPN?

I'd prefer you fix or delete the HDHR devices before continuing with the Cetons.

I dont follow.

The wintv devices are not configured in nextpvr. They show up under devices but they are configured to plex with no proxy.

The cetons are seen in network everywhere.

The motherboard has dual nic cards.
Each ceton is configured in there web app to static ips in the same subnet my system runs in.


So ifconfig shows these devices

enp7s0f0 (nic1)
enp7s0f1 (nic2)
enp12s8 (ceton1)
enp9s0 (ceton2)

on an os level i created 2 network bridges pairing each ceton with a real nic

auto br0
iface br0 inet static
bridge_ports enp7s0f0 enp12s8 ctn0
address 192.168.2.73
gateway 192.168.2.125
netmask 255.255.255.0
bridge_hw 00:25:90:19:00:42

# Bonding eth1 & eth2 to create bond0 NIC
auto br1
iface br1 inet static
bridge_ports enp7s0f1 enp9s0 ctn3
address 192.168.2.83
gateway 192.168.2.125
netmask 255.255.255.0
bridge_hw 00:25:90:19:00:43

then netplan is configured again with br0 and br1

ceton cards show up as network devices with the static ip address they are configured to in there own web apps
192.168.2.250
192.168.2.240

The only issue I am seeing so far is sometimes it wants to default to the cards subnet and not the real gateway making the whole system go offline. resetting the default route usually fixes it


the only files it generated were those 10 files that the system refused to see. I just merged the data with mine. The ones I made the system would see. Even when I move them from path or delete they still show up only say unavailable.

Ok I will check the xml to make sure it is valid. Your original ones definitely won't work. I don't care about the WinTV devices it is the HDHR error that is causing an issue and that is why I asked you to disable them.

Martin

[mvallevand]

Also maybe for the next test confirm you do the restart and not reboot, maybe your server is up before the network.

sudo nextpvr-server restart

Martin

[mvallevand]

Ok the xml is fine and I can import with it here. I did have to restart the server to see it.

root@livetv:/var/opt/nextpvr/scripts# python3 opendct.py INSTALL
Exit

[mvallevand]

Of course I forgot you need to add Ceton

python3 opendct.py INSTALL Ceton

that worked it created the 10 files in the root of the app directory and the system picked them up. But still no further than we were as far as actually playing anything. Same result
