Samsung IPSRV enhancements
Hi,
I suggest to improve the support of the IPSRV channel lists in Samsung TV devices. This list is handled by the "Samsung TV plus" service. And here some of my assumptions:
- The list is "created" by the widget and updated time to time.
- Channels are "repeated" because the list is concatenated with the antenna lists. Therefore if you have SAT and ARERIAL lists, then the channels will appear twice.
- This list stores a lot of information of the channels: logo, URL, name, information, etc.
My suggestion is first add support to PRINT all the values stored in this list. I feel this will be easy to achieve.
The second suggestion is to add the option to modify some values. My use case is this: I want to replace one channel of my country with another one in another territory. I can reveice the stream because I know the URL. And I've checked it with the VLC client. So I only need to change the URL+name+logo.
I hope you want to support this.
Hi,
A simple description of some technical information of this IPSRV list:
- The table "SRV_IP" has the "jsonMeta" row that has a blob (binary) data. This data is a 2-byte JSON file.
- The JSON file has a structure with multiple entries, including:
default_urlandlogo_url.
My idea is to "interchange" the values of one channel from a list from a different location. I'll comment about it in the future. At time, I hope the developers will want to "print" this JSON Metadata.
The two URLs can be edited with this pre-release version: https://chansort.com/ChanSort_2023-08-13.zip
