Welcome to the HDHRProxyIPTV Wiki

Some general info about this project:

About it:

This project is the first (and only at time) server compatible at binary protocol level with the HDHomeRun® devices. It masquerades a physical HDHR tuner with a software emulator. It can provide access to real DVB-T/C/S transponders or IPTV streams (including TS files). However, another program is required to serve these TS streams. Any program that can provide MPEG-TS streaming over the HTTP protocol can be used as the TS server. But the stream that is served requires compliance with DVB standards. This means that at least the PAT & PMT tables need to be present and sent on a regular basis. All other MPEG-TS tables are optional depending on the client you are using.

TS Servers compatible:

This is a work in progress list of some of the HDHDProxyIPTV-compatible TS servers:

• Minisatip: MPTS compatible with external filtering; SPTS of any type. Sources can be local DVB tuners or remote SAT>IP servers. (recommended)
• udpxy: MPTS compatible only with internal filtering; SPTS of any type. Sources can be UDP multicast streams (IPTV).
• UDP-to-HTTP proxy: MPTS compatible only with internal filtering; SPTS of any type. Sources can be UDP multicast streams (IPTV).
• TVHeadEnd: MPTS compatible only with internal filtering; SPTS of any type. Sources can be local DVB tuners, SAT>IP servers, HDHR servers, UDP/RTP multicast streams (IPTV), HTTP/HLS streams (IPTV), File sources.

Note: If you want to use the most powerful configuration, use a TVHeadEnd server to manage all your sources and export them with the SAT>IP server functionality. Then interpose a Minisatip server to connect to the TVHeadEnd server via the SAT>IP client functionality. And finally configure the HDHRProxyIPTV to feed the data from the Minisatip server using the HTTP protocol. With this environment you can use both SPTS and MPTS with external filtering enabled.

HDHR Clients compatible:

This is another work in progress list of some clients that work with the HDHDProxyIPTV server:

• Windows Media Center: If you install the Windows drivers from SiliconDust® you can use it!
• HDHomeRun Config GUI: This tool from the Windows package is compatible if you configure the INI file correctly.
• hdhomerun_config: This multi-platform command-line tool is fully compatible.
• Windows DBA clients: We test some and they work.
• ... (more to come!)
