[vdr-plugin-satip] "SATIP-ERROR: bool cSatipFrontends::Attach(int, int) no Frontend found for attaching deviceID 0 (TP 386)"

  • Morning!


    Each time I switch channel I get below lines in the log, although it doesn't seem to have any impact.

    Code
    vdr[937050]: [937055] SATIP-ERROR: bool cSatipFrontends::Attach(int, int) no Frontend found for attaching deviceID 0 (TP 274)
    vdr[937050]: [937055] SATIP-ERROR: bool cSatipFrontends::Attach(int, int) no Frontend found for attaching deviceID 0 (TP 274)
    vdr[937050]: [937055] SATIP-ERROR: bool cSatipFrontends::Attach(int, int) no Frontend found for attaching deviceID 0 (TP 274)
    vdr[937050]: [937055] SATIP-ERROR: bool cSatipFrontends::Attach(int, int) no Frontend found for attaching deviceID 0 (TP 386)
    vdr[937050]: [937055] SATIP-ERROR: bool cSatipFrontends::Attach(int, int) no Frontend found for attaching deviceID 0 (TP 386)
    vdr[937050]: [937055] SATIP-ERROR: bool cSatipFrontends::Attach(int, int) no Frontend found for attaching deviceID 0 (TP 386)


    Does the plugin start counting from 0 or 1? Currently starting as follows:

    Code
    -Psatip -d 3 -s meterkast:8554|DVBC-3|minisatip


    I'm using minisatip on a RPI4:

    Code
    minisatip --enable-adapters 0-2 --delsys 0:dvbc,1:dvbc,2:dvbc --logfile /var/log/minisatip/minisatip.log --http-port 8080 --rtsp-port 8554


    Settings

    Code
    satip.CICAM = 0 0
    satip.DisabledFilters = 3 4
    satip.DisabledSources =
    satip.EnableCIExtension = 0
    satip.EnableEITScan = 0
    satip.EnableFrontendReuse = 1
    satip.OperatingMode = 1
    satip.TransportMode = 0


    Any idea what it can be? something wrongly set?


    Carel

  • There's no fixed aligment between the servers devices and the vdr devices.

    Satip devices assign the next free servers device to a vdr device, or release it if unused. The server decides, which device he offers.



    Some suggestions..


    1.

    SAT>IP spec says.. "SAT>IP uses the standard RTSP server port number 554."

    So, if there is no really hard (and unavoidable) reason, pls remove port 8554 on both sides and leave it at it's default of 554.


    2.

    Check minisatip log, how much frontends of which type it serves.


    3.

    On vdr, pls reduce command line to "-Psatip -d3"


    Code
    -Psatip -d 3 -s meterkast:8554|DVBC-3|minisatip

    -d3 ok, if desired # of devices != 2 and svr has at least 3

    -s meterkast | << not needed

    8554 | << only, if really unavoidable

    DVBC-3 | << only, if the server supplies other delsys too, otherwise let plugin discover: nope

    minisatip << let the plugin discover, if just one server


    4. check both logs, server and vdr

  • Thanks for the suggestions.


    Running with Psatip -d 3 using default port 553 did not change anything.


    minisatip recognizes the three adapters


    Just the error lines in the client, I still have a picture

  • So far nothing too unusual, may be worth a look into satips setting page -> devices (yellow key)


    You should find three devices on a DVBC-3 server.

  • may be, you could check with the femon plugin, if all devices work. Go to an unencrypted channel and switch the device in the frontend status window.

  • Hello again


    As a test I reduced the number of SAT IP devices on the server from 3 to 2.

    I switched frontends on the client with <left> <right> and the channels work on both devices.


    Funny is that the plugin still shows three 'error' lines, although I now only have two devices active

    jul 24 10:36:57 woonkamer vdr[1133904]: [1133911] SATIP-ERROR: bool cSatipFrontends::Attach(int, int) no Frontend found for attaching deviceID 0 (TP 386)

    So doesn't seem related to the number of devices in use

  • As far as i understand, you have now three devices with two frontends, if you didnt change -D3


    device: an empty container

    frontend: a tuner on the server

  • I removed one DVB-C stick, leaving two, from the server and restarted minisatip

    When zapping between DVB-C channels I rarely see (still three) error lines.


    But I noticed I can 100% reproduce the errors when I zap from an IPTV channel to a DVB-C one

    The IPTV channels are randomly in the channel list and I didn't notice this before,
