Configuration file to stream multiple TV channels on the same frequency using VLC
Posted: 23 Aug 2019 14:11
I'm trying to stream multiple TV channels using VLC and ONE TV adapter. The goal is to use this only one adapter to stream all the channels that the TV Network broadcasts on the same frequency.
I know it should be possible to do this (according to VLC documentation) launching VLC with a conf file that sets all the options. I've tried it in different ways but the result is always the same: VLC opens and nothing happens.
This is my latest configuration file, in which I set the adapter, frequency, programs and output details.
It is important to mention that if I do this manually on VLC to stream just one channel it works perfectly. That's how I managed to get the Program ID for each channel on the frequency.
So, as I said, after launching VLC using:
it just opens the application and nothing happens. What am I missing?

Code: Select all
new NETWORK_TV broadcast enabled
setup NETWORK_TV input dvb-t://
setup NETWORK_TV option dvb-adapter=0
setup NETWORK_TV option dvb-frequency=123000000
setup NETWORK_TV option dvb-bandwidth=0
setup NETWORK_TV option programs=186,187,188,189
setup NETWORK_TV output #duplicate{dst=std{access=http,mux=ts,dst=:8080/2},select="program=186",dst=std{access=http,mux=ts,dst=:8080/22},select="program=187",dst=std{access=http,mux=ts,dst=:8080/23},select="program=188",dst=std{access=http,mux=ts,dst=:8080/24},select="program=189"}
control NETWORK_TV play
