raty Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 Having the recording service running in multiple machines is fine but what do you want them to do? Do you want these to be able to server each other or have multiple recording servers to be available to the viewer? Link to comment
defcon5 Posted December 29, 2009 Author Share Posted December 29, 2009 I would like to see in both pcs with DVBViewer installed tv channels, like I got installing dvbserver a months ago Link to comment
raty Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 I use a single recording service as my server (I only have a single PVR box with DVB-S) but many client PCs which connect using the viewer as a client. I do not know how you can select multiple recording servers to server a single viewer client. Maybe there are other services available to accomplish this? Link to comment

I do not know how you can select multiple recording servers to server a single viewer client. Maybe there are other services available to accomplish this? Its possible, and very easy to have more than one Recording Service. In DVBViewer you just add more Unicast Network Devices in hardware configuration. You differentiate them by IP adress eg. Server 1 could be 192.168.1.40 and server 2 could be 192.168.1.41 Link to comment

May be I don´t explain me correctly, I´m sorry I you take a look to the link attached at firs post, you will understand my target Is a similar process than with the old dvbserver? On the server: 1. Install DVBViewer, configure it, scan channels, make shure everything works. 2. Install Recording Service 3. In DVBViewer go to Settings>Options>Hardware and select Do not use in State section for Tuners you want to share 4. Select Start>All Programs>DVBViewer>DVBViewer Recording Service>Service Options 5. Write down the port numbers for Unicast Interface, and Control Server. Mine is 3456 and 4022 6. Tick Activate Autdiscovery, write down portnumber, usualy 600 7. In Web Settings write Username and Password On the Client 1. Install DVBViewer.Do not install any tuners in the Setup phase 2. In DVBViewer go to Settings>Options>Hardware. Clik the + button. select the number of Unicat tuners (the number of Tuners you have shared on the server) 3. Select Normal in State for every Device 4. For each device: Click Settings. In DVB Control Server write the IP adress of the server (you can find it with Start>CMD>ipconfig on the server) 5. Do the same in DVB Unicast Device 6. Write the Control Server port, mine was 4022 7. Write Unicast Server port, mine was 3456 8. In Autodiscovery Server list, the name of the Server should appear 9. In Options>Recording Servicetick Enable Support for Recording Service. write the IP adress of the server and the Username and password from server (point 7 above) 10. Click Test Connection. If all is okay, the name and version of Recoring Service should appear, otherwise it wil say FAILED If everything is okay, you should now be able to scan channels on the client If it fails, try to disable firewalls on both the server and the client Link to comment

McenterFreak Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 Then you need to work a little bit with your firewall on the server. I is not possible for me to tell you how, because i don't hve the same software. But you need to grant access to DVBViewer Recording Service and the ports you use (eg. 4022, 3456, 8060, 80) Link to comment

But you need to grant access to DVBViewer Recording Service and the ports you use (eg. 4022, 3456, 8060, 80) Now is work fine !!! I've open in server pc firewall the following ports (TCP and UDP): 4022, 8060,3456,80 and the following aplications: -service control -service options May be all is not necessary. Now I'll survey ports and aplications Thanks a lot for your advices Link to comment
Paxero Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 Can I run RS and DVBViewer client on the same machine (I can, I know) and stream from RS to DVBViewer client? It seems that it should work, but I cannot scan the channels on Unicast device - no channels found. I need to run on the same machine, and want all tuners to be used by RS, then, when I want to watch TV in DVBViewer, I cannot use the tuners, but need to get stream from RS. And this does not work for me... Link to comment
Tjod Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 Try the Recording Service Setup Wizard for the DVBViewer configuration. http://en.DVBViewer.tv/wiki/Recording_Service_Installation_Guide#Setting_up_DVBViewer Link to comment
Paxero Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 I run the wizard, and the outcome is the same. I can connect to the service, but when I do channel scan, the scan runs very fast (1 second) and it finishes with status 0 channels found, 0 channels upated. There are no error messages. Any idea, please? Link to comment
Tjod Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Post your support.zip maybe we see there what went wrong. Link to comment
Paxero Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 Thank you for any help/advice. support.zip Link to comment
Tjod Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 As fare as I can seen everything is configured correct. But the DVBViewer doesn't connect to the RS. What firewall are you using? Link to comment
Paxero Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 I use only Windows Firewall, and it is disabled. I tried to connect to the RS from another computer, and it works!!! Just from the same PC I cannot tune the channels. Really strange. Link to comment
Paxero Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 DVBViewer and RS communicate each other. No doubt. I attached RS logfile. Can you read anything out of there, please. Ports (added 30000) are changed by me. You may see, that this did not work well also with the original ports. Thanks in advance for any response. svcdebug.zip Link to comment
Paxero Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 It starts to work! I run DVBViewer as Administartor, and tuning started to work! What is surprising me is, that it seems that now tuning works even when I run DVBViewer normally (not as Administrator). Link to comment
