mumudvb is a modified version of the dvbstream released by cr@ns. Its intended use is to distribute a stream from a DVB device onto a network, in multicast. It's main feature is to take a whole transponder and put each channel on different multicast IP.
Features
- Can show reception level when streaming
- To make a list of channels in real time (can be used to make SAP announces)
- Can deamonize and write his own pid in a file
- The program can kill himself if he receives no data from the card
- The program stops trying tuning after a configurable timeout
- The main fonctionality : stream channels from a transponder on different multicast IPs
- Can stream the same pid on different channels (multicast Ip)
- Functionnal support of DVB-T
- Always send mandatory pids
- Mandatory pids are :
- PAT (0): Program Association Table
- NIT (16) : Network Information Table : It is intended to provide information about the physical network.
- SDT (17) : Service Description Table : the SDT contains data describing the services in the system e.g. names of services, the service provider, etc.
- EIT (18) : Event Information Table : the EIT contains data concerning events or programmes such as event name, start time, duration, etc.
- TDT (20): Time and Date Table : the TDT gives information relating to the present time and date.This information is given in a separate table due to the frequent updating of this information.
- Mandatory pids are :
- mumudvb automatically suscribe to all multicast groups (IGMP membership request) in order to avoid some switches to broadcast all channels.
- The program can rewrite the PAT Pid in order to announce only present channels (useful for set-top boxes)
- This is an experimental feature (03/2006) and dont rewrite Pat Pids larger than 188 bytes
