Initial Setup[edit]

The following rough guide applies to XBian.

SSH[edit]

Connect: 

ssh xbian@192.168.2.22

File copy from PI: 

scp xbian@192.168.2.22:/home/xbian/zap2xml.tar.gz .

File copy to PI: 

scp zap2xml.tar.gz xbian@192.168.2.22:/home/xbian/zap2xml.tar.gz

Disabling WIFI power saving[edit]

sudo vi /etc/network/interfaces

Add the following line anywhere in the file: 

wireless-power off

Set proper timezone[edit]

TBD: There seems to be many possible location to set the timezone.

  • SSH:
dpkg-reconfigure tzdata
  • Kodi:
System > Config > TBD > TZ
System > Config > XBian > TBD > TZ

Builds[edit]

Enable gcc, make... 

sudo apt-get install build-essential

Install perl missing libs[edit]

sudo perl -MCPAN -e shell
install JSON::XS

MPEG-2 License[edit]

License key = 0x16baa230

Enable via: 

sudo xbian-config

Tvheadend[edit]

EPG Downloader[edit]

  • Copy zap2xml config to PI using scp.
  • Set cron job to fetch EPG daily:
crontab -e

# m  h  dom mon dow   command
  33 3  *   *   *     /home/xbian/zap2xml/runZap2Xml.sh
  • Enable internal grabber in path:
cd /usr/local/bin
sudo ln -s /home/xbian/zap2xml/tv_grab_file

Frontend (Kodi)[edit]

In Kodi TV interface:

  • Install Tvheadend HTSP Client
  • Config: point to localhost

Backend[edit]

Basic setup[edit]

  • Create default user via ssh:
tvheadend -C
  • Enable tvheadend services via:
sudo xbian-config

Channel setup[edit]

The following is done using the web interface: http://192.168.2.22:9981 while logged in as admin.

Goto Config > DVB Input

  • Network tab: Add network us_ATSC_center_frequencies
  • TV Adapters tab: Assign network to tuner
  • Network tab: Force scan
  • Muxes tab: Check scan results.
  • Services tab: map all selected, map all services.

Goto Config > Channel/EPG

  • EPG Grabber tab: Set EPG frequency (advanced mode)
# MGouin custom to run 04:00 after zap2xml
0 4 * * *
  • EPG Grabber Modules tab: Enable Internal tv_grab_file
  • EPG Grabber Channels tab: Assign channels to each EPG channel
  • Channels tab: give proper channel names

DVR Setup[edit]

Possible file naming scheme:

Refer to http://docs.tvheadend.org/webui/config_dvr/

Goto Configuration > Recording > Profile 

$t$-e_%F$n.$x

Debugging[edit]

Refer to: https://tvheadend.readthedocs.org/en/latest/Appendices/command_line_options/

Debug command: 

tvheadend -d -u xbian -g xbian -c /home/xbian/.hts/tvheadend

Default command: 

tvheadend -f -u xbian -g xbian -c /home/xbian/.hts/tvheadend

General Infos[edit]

HD Recordings: 30 min = 4165 MB

Recordings DB:

Tuner Test[edit]

Hauppauge Xbox One[edit]

This tuner works well. It has the same chip as the Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-955Q (refer to dmesg listing below:

Maintenance[edit]

Check[edit]

mount
cat /etc/fstab
sudo fdisk -l
df -h
sudo btrfs-auto-snapshot list

Remove snapshots: 

sudo -i
btrfs-auto-snapshot list | grep -v /@$ | grep auto-snap | xargs -L1 btrfs-auto-snapshot destroy

Correction[edit]

TBD? btrfs how to check for filesystem integrity?
