Tvheadend Plugin for Serviio

This is a plugin for the Serviio media server. It makes Tvheadend's channel list available as live streams in Serviio.

Instructions

• Read the Serviio's manual if you don't know how to install plugins.
• Add the URL of Serviio's Web interface (e.g., http://host:9981) as a Web Resource under Online sources.
• The plugin ignores the setting Max. number of feed items to retrieve, i.e., it will always retrieve the complete channel list.
• If everything went smoothly, Tvheadend's channels will be available as live streams under the category Video → Online.

Requirements

• Tvheadend v3.9 (or newer) is required!

Troubleshooting

• If something goes wrong, make sure that Tvheadend's API can be reached without authentication. Read Tvheadend's documentation about access control to learn how to achieve this! You can easily check your configuration by opening, e.g., http://host:9981/api/serverinfo in your favorite Web browser's incognito/private mode. If Tvheadend is configured correctly, it will immediately return a JSON document (e.g, {"sw_version": "3.9...), instead of requesting a username/password.
