[MMM-Dreambox] to connect a Dreambox or a Enigma2 Receiver (like VU or VU+) to MagicMirror and stream stations via omxplayer

[Cr4z33]

@evroom thanks for your suggestion, but honestly I don’t want to change to default port.

Even if it was working I don’t feel save because I use the Vu+ through DDNS service when I am out of home. ;)

I just tested port 137.
Works just fine.
As expected, but you never know.

@evroom hmm I wonder what the hell can it be then? :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_cold_sweat:

MPEG2 License is OK, normal command line omxplayer streaming is OK, I am out of ideas too… :confounded_face:

Can you send me please by private chat the WHOLE module config you are using?
Let’s see if there’s any difference in it.

@Cr4z33
Is the IP of your VU receiver from internal Lan or external (DDNS)?
AxLED

[Cr4z33]

@AxLed it’s an internal LAN IP address.

@AxLed I tried @evroom 's module config, but it keeps not streaming.

Try this:

$ cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Dreambox/

$ cp -p node_helper.js node_helper.js.orig

$ vi node_helper.js

Locate:

exec('omxplayer '

Append this line:

console.log('DB-PLAY(1): omxplayer '+self.config.omxargs+self.trimPort(self.config.apiBase)+':8001/'+payload[0]);


Locate next:

exec('omxplayer '

Append this line:

console.log('DB-PLAY(2): omxplayer '+self.config.omxargs+self.trimPort(self.config.apiBase)+':8001/'+payload[0]);


$ pm2 restart mm

$ pm2 logs

Select a service and play that service:

http://< MM_IP >:8080/remote?action=NOTIFICATION&notification=DB-SERVICE-NEXT

http://< MM_IP >:8080/remote?action=NOTIFICATION&notification=DB-PLAY

In pm2 logs should appear:

0|mm  | DB-PLAY(1): omxplayer  --genlog --vol -6000 --win 0,625,590,957 --live http://192.168.178.47:8001/1:0:19:283D:3FB:1:C00000:0:0:0:

or:

0|mm  | DB-PLAY(2): omxplayer  --genlog --vol -6000 --win 0,625,590,957 --live http://192.168.178.47:8001/1:0:19:283D:3FB:1:C00000:0:0:0:

In my case I see DB-PLAY(2).

If you see nothing then it is back to the drawing board.
Need to see what works and what not and where in the code.

[Cr4z33]

@evroom thanks I will try later today.

[Cr4z33]

@evroom there are two instances of

exec('omxplayer '

one at line 40 and one at line 45.

What shall I do?

After both lines you need to put the console.log line, one with (1) and one with (2), see my post:

Locate:

exec('omxplayer '

Append this line:

console.log('DB-PLAY(1): omxplayer '+self.config.omxargs+self.trimPort(self.config.apiBase)+':8001/'+payload[0]);


Locate next:

exec('omxplayer '

Append this line:

console.log('DB-PLAY(2): omxplayer '+self.config.omxargs+self.trimPort(self.config.apiBase)+':8001/'+payload[0]);
