My ISP does not provide to users PIM with RP IPTV, only solution: to see IPTV with router igmp proxy feature, for example on popular router linksys is option Enable multicast (it is igmp proxy option) and after I create port forward UDP 5000 to one local lan PC, only after it i can see IPTV with vlc or friptv.
How configure (if its possible) Mikrotik with igmp proxy, now I have Routerboard 433AH with Mikrotik and how to see IPTV without PIM RP?
If I forward UDP 5000 - no results…
I think in mikrotik must be igmp proxy feature.. I don’t know are this feature implemented or not… Can anyone run iptv from ISP with mikrotik without PIM ?
May by you should post your config? Mine is nor working..
I have “wan” interface, pppoe on this interface, masquerade on both.
iptv is on the wan interface.
povider presents .vlc playlist with smth. like this inside:
udp://@224.0.42.69:5000
udp://@224.0.42.81:5000
so, i also has “LAN” iface, where my PC with VLC player is located.
i have rebooted router, and interface are not inactive now.
But nothing works.
in log I can see:
igmp-proxy info_starting IGMP proxy forwarding
and a lot of messages like this:
igmp-proxy warning_ignoring IGMP message: received on the upstream interface
igmp-proxy warning_ignoring IGMP message: group is not a multicast address
igmp-proxy warning_ group=0.0.0.0
it works.
the solution was to reboot router after every step
but now another problem - mt doesn’t leave tv channels.
I 'm changing channel on vlc, but mt doesn’t leave previous. So after i change 3 channels, everything stops - 3x3.5MB for every channel
set quick-leave=yes, then channel swaping will occur faster, as special leave packet will be sent the moment you switch, other way you have to wait for timeout.
