# Add Adapter

You can click Adapter > Add Adapter for open the add adapter page. If you have multiple servers added to the main panel, use the Server option to select the DVB server. And normally you have multiple DVB cards in the server, use Device option to select which DVB device you want use for this adapter.

TIP

Please make sure the Delivery System, Modulation, Frequency, Symbol Rate and Voltage options are set up correctly, otherwise you may failed to scan the channel.

# Scan Channels

After you added the adapters via above Add Adapter guide, you can go to Adapter > Manage Adapters page, and click the first icon at settings column to start the adapter. You can click the table row or the second icon to open the scanning result, all the scanned channels will be listed here. You can click the Create Streams button for quickly add the channel to the panel, but the scrambled channels won't be added.

TIP

If the channel is scrambled and you have SoftCAM configured already, make sure the CAID option you filled in the SoftCAM Settings page is correct, you must add 0x prefix if the CAID you filled is in hexadecimal format.

# Raw MPEG-TS Output

You can set up the UDP Output Address option to a unicast or multicast address for output the scanned DVB channels in raw MPEG-TS format. And we are using the SID as port number for each DVB channel. Here is an example: if you fill 239.0.0.1 in the UDP Output Address option, you will able to receiving the channel via URL: udp://239.0.0.1:SID.

# EPG Export

The panel will grab the available EPG data from the DVB adapters for every 1800 seconds in default, you can go to the Settings > System Settings page, and set up the EPG Update Interval option for control how often to grab it.

You can access the EPG data via following URLs:

  • http://ip:port/stream/epg/epg.xml.gz
  • http://ip:port/stream/epg/epg.xml.gz?username=xxx&password=xxx

TIP

For the first form of URL, please make sure you add the client's IP to the Nginx > Configure > Whitelist, because the panel is using IP whitelist in default for protect your streaming contents.

For the second form of URL, you need add the user in User > Add User page.

# SoftCAM

We currently supports NEWCAMD and CS378X protocol for SoftCAM, you can go to SoftCAM > Add SoftCAM for add SoftCAM. But please remember the CAID you filled should has a 0x prefix if it's hexadecimal.

TIP

The DVB adapter will find corresponding SoftCAM for decrypt the channels in default. If you need force the DVB adapter to use the specified SoftCAM, you can go to the Adapter Settings page, and set up the SoftCAM option.
