Hi all,
I'm trying to consolidate my stuff a bit and got a 4Sat these days. I'm trying to run VDR-2.6.0 with the satip plugin connecting to the Satip device. 4 receivers, 2x S19.2E, 2x S13.0E. So far, the LNB ran on a DD Cine PCI-E card just fine. (but I want to get rid of the server). (Tuner #4 is a Fritzbox cable receiver).
Initially, all seems to look good:

etc. etc. endlessly, and with netstat I see a lot of attempted rtsp connects:

What might be wrong? Any experience that you can share? Should I return this device because it is known not to work with the satip plugin? (Not that I didn't google this before, to no avail.)
I would have preferred an Octopus Net S2, but these devices were withdrawn and are hard to find.
TIA!
Cheers, hm

Hello Harald,
I miss lines like these:
Mar 28 19:28:25 vdr vdr: [21100] SATIP: Adding server '192.168.166.129|DVBC-4|FRITZ!Box 6490 Cable' Bind: default Filters: none CI: no Quirks: n one
These lines give you the information with which name the SAT>IP device has been detected and added.
Some SATIP devices have not-standard behaviour and need "quirks" to work properly.
For example, the "GSSBOX"Grundig Sat Systems GSS.box DSI 400 has a "SessionID Bug" and there is a "quirk" to fix this.
run "vdr -h" and read what options your satip plugin has and try if "0x01: Fix session id bug" helps you.
Looking into the source code
https://github.com/rofafor/vdr-plugin-satip/blob/02a842f95a09a74d7eba90648c9...
there is a comment
// Elgato EyeTV Netstream 4Sat ?
which is an indication that your receiver may need this quirk, but its not coded in the source yet.
If yes, please report your results here.
Bye
Martin
Hi Martin,

Oh, these were 30 or 40 lines further above, no problem.

Thanks for your hint. I tried all quirks one by one but to no avail. In particular, 0x01 did not help at all so I think the comment can be removed from the source code ;-)
I think I'll be going for a low-power Mini-ITX system using the existing DD card. An alternative would be two dual input USB devices attached to my current vdr dedicated system (which is a Raspi 4B running Ubuntu 22.04 LTS by the way) but I do not have encouraging experience using USB devices from the past - except if someone can point me to a known working device.
Cheers, hm
