ADBTuner: A "channel tuning" application for networked Google TV / Android TV devices

spammedeeper · January 23, 2024, 2:30am

Thank you for clarifying. Glad the device is working well. Been running multiple Link Pi devices since November. Ping me if you have any questions or jump into the LinkPi thread:

Ok I'm having no luck. I haver restarted, reinstalled, etc, but I'm still unable to get a video stream from the encoder in Channels. Here are some facts that may help find the issue.

I can see the video stream with VLC at http://10.10.11.43/live/stream0 and also at http://10.10.11.43:8090/stream0 - I've tried with both in ADBTuner, same results.

I add a channel and the resulting m3u at http://10.10.11.16:5592/channels.m3u is:

#EXTM3U
#EXTINF:-1 channel-id="27081777265462926658171838050863796401" channel-number="8000",HDMI Encoder
http://10.10.11.16:5592/stream/1

I created a Custom Channel pointing at that m3u:

When I play the channel, ADBTuner opens the app in Fire TV and triggers the right live stream, but in Channels I get this error:

2024/01/23 05:41:48.490698 [ERR] Could not start stream for M3U-HDMIEncoder ch9001 HDMI Encoder: M3U: Tuner Unreachable: Timeout after 20.01s connecting to: http://10.10.11.16:5592/stream/1

And in ADBTuner I get this logs:

My LinkPi encoder settings are exactly as shown a few posts above, and I can see the video preview in the dashboard, play the stream etc in VLC. I have to say my encoder is ENC1V3, the newest one (4K), but my firmware is 2.9.0 build 20231229_1900. I see others have 2.9.0 build 20231229_1901.

The only issue I see is this: for some reason I cannot select HTTP at the Overall Config screen:

But nonetheless everything works as expected.

Any help greatly appreciated. Also, anybody has a link to firmware downloads? Thanks.

And one more thing, Just for the sake of testing, if I point the Endpoint to a working HDHR channel (http://10.10.11.30:5004/auto/v4.1), ADBTuner is ok with that, but it never proxies the stream to Channels DVR, just like it happens with the LinkPi encoder. My guess here is there's some network issue at my ADBTuner sever that prevents hitting the endpoint video stream address...

For that Xfinity app you will most likely have to enable Compatibility Mode for each channel in ADBTuner. Give that a shot.

uspino · January 23, 2024, 11:54am

That was it! It now works as expected. Can you briefly explain how does "Compatibility Mode" resolve this issue and when/why should I use it?

Thank you so much.

turtletank · January 23, 2024, 12:56pm

Compatibility mode does two things:

Disables the video playback detection that is used to delay the video stream until the exact moment video playback starts. With this detection disabled you might see some of the loading process at the beginning of a recording (app opening, etc). This is necessary for some applications that use non-native video players as it's difficult to detect playback in that situation.
Terminates the application process when the stream is closed. Some applications respond poorly to loading a URL when the app is already open. Some crash, or load the video in a paused state, etc. Doing this allows for a fresh start for each channel load. The downside being it might be a bit slower to tune.

laughsbrightly · January 23, 2024, 1:51pm

Well, I thought it was working.
I scheduled a recoding in Channels web interface. The recording starts and I can see it on the monitor via pass-through.
The Channels App then reports that the recording was interrupted.
When I go to watch the recording, I get "Connection Lost"
Meanwhile, Channels thinks it's still recording so I delete and trash the episode, and use the remote to kill the Sling app.
Edit channel to compatibility mode. Same thing.
Okay, schedule another recording. It starts. I touch nothing and every couple minutes the Sling app restarts. Wait a couple more, the Sling app restarts. Only, the restarts aren't as quick as before.
Edit: Power cycle of the Link Pi seems to have resolved it. I will keep an eye on it.

@turtletank
I got everything up n running .
But i cant get my swedish app ”Allente” to start or tune with adbtuner. I have choosen the name in droplist for Allente . Any other idea ?

One requst for non compatible app . Can you please make a option for adb to send number keys? In that way i can leave the app always on and have adb tuner to send key 1 for channel 1 and key 22 to channel 22. My goal is to use Tvheadend and kodi with your app . Thanks !

bnhf · January 24, 2024, 5:46pm

What you're requesting is exactly what the androidhdmi-for-channels (ah4c) project is all about. ADBTuner is designed for apps that support deep links. For those that don't, ah4c is the way to go.

bnhf · January 24, 2024, 10:49pm

Back in the USA now, so I was able to test this out. And, with a fully up-to-date FireStick 4K Max (2nd Gen), I had no problem connecting via Ethernet with ADB enabled. It worked with this stick 3 months ago before left, and it still works now.

Edwin_Perez · January 24, 2024, 10:58pm

I have 4 Firesticks attached to a switch using Ethernet with ADB enabled and plugged into my encoder.

Bossmann · January 24, 2024, 11:12pm

Ok thanks . Can it be used with other apps like kodi , vlc etc without channels installed?

bnhf · January 24, 2024, 11:12pm

Yes, same with me.

The implication I was trying to address is that the "latest" FireSticks (which I assume to mean the 4K Max Gen 2 units) had the same failing as the onn 4K sticks as far as ADB and Ethernet being mutually exclusive. This is not the case, at least in my testing.

Are the sticks you mentioned above Gen 2?

Edwin_Perez · January 24, 2024, 11:20pm

Those are 4K Max's I have a 4KMAX 2nd Gen hooked up to my TV with ethernet and ADB enabled ... which I also use for ADB command testing.

bnhf · January 24, 2024, 11:23pm

I don't see why not. I just tried one of the virtual channel URLs from my ah4c M3U in VLC, and it both tuned and played fine.

EDIT: Everything looks as per usual in the docker container log as well:

I tried the ADBTUNER With EMBY Nextpvr and it worked on them ... great piece of software.

Is there an easy way to find the package name of an app? I've been trying to get the npo app to open with adbtuner but haven't been able to do it.

you got to extract the apk file and look inside the AndroidManifest.xml for that

Run the following from a shell first, then launch the app on your streaming device:

adb logcat | grep "ActivityManager: START.*cmp="

You should log line output that will show the package name.

More importantly though, do you know if the app you're trying to use supports deep links?

The “select from installed” option should show all of the installed apps. Is this not working?

Gregg_K · January 26, 2024, 2:56pm

Thanks, Today the select from Installed is working, it wasn't working yesterday for some reason. Anyway, I did find the app, but adbtuner is not opening it. Now I wonder if the link is not correct. Back to the drawing board
