    Enigma2 Transcoder

    What is Enigma2 Transcoder ?

    It is web application for transcoding, recompressing, resizing stream from your enigma2 receiver .

    Why ?

    You can stream your favorite HD TV show to your cell phone over 3G/4G. Stream will be scaled to not use so much bandwidth.

    What i need for this web app ?

    You need windows or linux computer and enigma2 based receiver.

    How can i watch stream ?

    With web application built in flash player, vlc player, BSPlayer (android)

    How does it work ?

    Between receiver and device where you want to see stream is computer which serves WEB application where you can select TV channel for transcoding. This computer transcodes your selected stream.

    How to install it:
    This manual is how to install Enigma2 Transcoder on Windows Computer.

    1. Download last application version from here

    enigma2_transcoder_041.rar

    2. Extract archive to disk c:

    3. Edit file c:\DB\web\admin\config.php , set here receiver IP, username etc..

    4. Start c:\DB\start.bat

    5. Open link http://yourcomputerip:8888/admin/ on browser

    6. under settings push button “reload playlist”, this will download bouquets to application

    Notes:

    If in “start.bat” window you see error probably you need install VC11 redistributable X86

    web server port you can change in start.bat file

    Basically E2 transcoder can run also on linux or windows computer, with any other web server like IIS, apache, nginx which supports PHP.

    Installation steps for ubuntu linux

    For linux it is necessary already installed web server with php installed, but i would not go into details how to install web server. Application should work on nginx and on apache.

    1. Download last application version

    2. Copy from archive /DB/web folders admin and stream somewhere to your web server path. Folders /admin/db and /stream/ should be writable by web server. In case of apache this is user apache for nginx www-data.

    3. Sqlite database engine and avconv command it is necessary for transcoding, so let install em.

    sudo apt-get install php5-sqlite libav-tools

    4. Delete from folder /admin/ file config.php and rename config.linux_example.php to config.php.

    5. edit this config.php file according your needs. As ubuntu uses avlib, command is avconv for converting video. For linux distributives with ffmpeg , ffmpeg can be used.

    $conf[“command”]=”avconv”;

    6. Open link http://yourwebserver/pathtoadminfolder/admin

    7. under settings push button “reload playlist”, this will download bouquets to application

    Could you please create question here ?

    http://www.world-of-satellite.com/fo...Satellite-Talk

    AS far i understand this section is only for downloads.

    But in short first you need install web server with php on your linux box, there should be a lot of manuals in internet how to do this for debian. I will help you with further steps.

    FYI

    due to bugs in "scale" parameter last avlib (avconv) version transcoding in ubuntu 15.04 does not work, please use instead of avlib ffmpeg, static ffmpeg can be downloaded here for linux.

    http://johnvansickle.com/ffmpeg/

    As far i know bug is patched, but when it arrives to ubuntu i dont know


    Nothing changes in windows.

    In theory there should not be significal problems to run this app on MAC, you need working web server on mac with php, and php-sqlite extension. Also working version of ffmpeg for mac. Than follow same instructions as for linux. But i never tested this app on MAC. So im not for 100% sure does this class which controls ffmpeg process works correctly on mac https://github.com/andrisdru/E2Trans...admin/lrun.php .

    Hello!
    I would like to inform that first unstable version of E2 transcoder for Raspberry PI2 is available in public. There is a lot of things which need to do to make this transcoder perfect, but if you wold like to test it you can do this.
    Basically this is a rasbpian wheezy image with some modifications to make possible to run this app.

    What you need to do, to install this app?
    1. download image with torrent. Sorry for torrent image is 3GB e2transcoder-061-wheezy-unstable.torrent

    2. Install on SD card this image, there should be a lot of instructions how to do this in insternet. I suspect you need at least 8GB SD card, not because all software is so big but because i took this image from my 8GB SD card.

    3. If you want a transcode SD channels you need a MPEG2 license. MPEG2 license is necessary to PI2 could decode in HW mode mpeg2 streams. http://www.raspberrypi.com/mpeg-2-license-key/

    4. run command in pi2 console
    sudo chmod 666 /var/www/admin/db/dbtranscode.db
    5. edit file /var/www/config.php for you needs, E2 receiver IP, username etc...

    6. Open link http://yourpi2ipaddress

    Ah, almoust forgot, PI2 linux username and password is
    user: pi
    password: raspberry

    Hello,

    sorry didnt checked this thread for some time, sorry for not giving support.

    but....

    New Version released 0.70 with IPTV support

    Long time since there was no new versions of transcoder. But good news recently there is new version with new great feature, now you can add IPTV links manually to transcoder bouquets. Actually from this release enigma2 receiver is not mandatory anymore you can use it for transcoding IPTV only. Just do not forget in such case set option

    $conf[“callreceiver”] = 0;

    To add IPTV link go to Editor section.

    editor.jpg

    Supported IPTV formats ? Must be everything what ffmpeg or avlib supports (as we can use one of those tools)

    Can't seem to get this to work properly on the Pi, also it does not create a port 8888
    And on your instructions it says edit this path: /var/www/config.php, but that does not exist, this is the correct path /var/www/admin/config.php
    Dishes: Channel Master 1.2m 18" Actuator/Polar Mount IBU Single - Channel Master 1.2m Moteck H180 - Gibertini OP100L STAB HH100 IBU Twin - Zone 2 Quad LNB
    Receivers: Mutant HD51 - Edision Primo IP S2 - Minitiouner V2- Sony 55" 4K
