Tuner and recording info for streams

Open phunkyfish opened this issue 6 years ago • 2 comments

I see the following TODOs in the code:

https://github.com/E2OpenPlugins/e2openplugin-OpenWebif/blob/770311dbcde34565a0e02ac73f69a61b79c9765a/plugin/controllers/models/info.py#L506-L511

Just curious if this is likely to happen at some point, or if it's just not possible currently. I maintain the Kodi addon for Enigma2 and it would be great to have a feature that let users know 1) The info from the tuner they are currently using and 2) if recording is possible i.e. is there an available tuner to record and if not what the tuners are being used for?

The TODO's are not only OWF related, some things are not feasible in OWF only. Not all images uses eStreamServer. The recordings have no info about the tuner. Sometimes there is no way to get the real used tuner for a specific recording or stream. Transcoding is also a big problem.

Makes sense, thanks for explaining.

So realistically this would only be possible for images that use eStreamServer and only for streams and not recordings.
