plexheadend not working anymore - Bad Request 400
Hi all
I'm using plexheadend for month and worked as expected.
Today I wan't to watch some LiveTV stuff and it didn't work.
Some troubleshooting later: It looks like plexheadend does the request like http://user:pass@tvheadendurl:port but this ends up in error 400 (Bad Request) on tvheadend.
I opend a bash inside of plexheadend docker and tried around with curl. It looks like tvheadend doesn't support user:pass@tvheadendurl at all :(
If I allow anonymous access for everyone on tvheadend, connectivity from plexheadend docker to tvheadend works fine.. so that shouldn't be the problem.
Any idea why this happen now?
How did you configure tvheadend and run plexheadend to get it going at all? I put a log line in the code and get no channels because of a 401 auth error:
2018/03/29 22:38:02 baseurl: %!(EXTRA string=http://plex:[email protected]:9981)
2018/03/29 22:38:02 resp%!(EXTRA *http.Response=&{401 Unauthorized 401 HTTP/1.1 1 1 map[Cache-Control:[no-cache] Www-Authenticate:[Digest realm="tvheadend", qop="auth", nonce="675d0a0fcf0e74cc92d45a17cd27fcfd", opaque="2c40bef1083d6125ae610f8f3bbb4131"] Connection:[Keep-Alive] Content-Type:[text/html] Server:[HTS/tvheadend]] 0xc4201d01e0 -1 [] false true map[] 0xc4201f6900
Maybe a good idea as well to print a warning on an authentication error.
In case someone else tries; tried it again with the fork ( https://github.com/mutluerol/plexheadend ) and now it does something. Running it on the same server as plex with: ./plexheadend --tvh-user plexheadend --tvh-pass mypassword --tvh-host 192.168.3.1 --tvh-port 9981 --proxy-listen 8001
The adding of the tuner is still a bit weird, it shows and then disappears but when I continue it shows the channels. The tvheadend user needs to have basic streaming and web interface access for it to work. I pointed the guide to http://localhost:8001/xmltv
