Perfect Player IPTV app (v1.4.3b5 and higher) supports such catchup tags:
- catchup – catchup type
- catchup-source – URL or a part of URL used to generate archive URL
- catchup-days – the number of archived days on the server (default is not limited)
Catchup types:
- default – catchup-source tag completely describes archive URL
- append – catchup-source tag value will be added at the end of channel URL to get archive URL
- xc – ‘Xtream-Codes’ server (catchup-source can be used to manually set additional time shift in hours)
- ez-ts – ‘Ezserver’ time-shift (catchup-source must contain DVR buffer size in minutes; catchup-days tag is ignored)
Catchup source variables:
-
- ${start} – archive start time in Unix Timestamp Format
- ${timestamp} – current time in Unix Timestamp Format
- ${offset} – offset from current time in seconds
Examples
Catchup tags can be specified in playlist URL:
http://site.com/playlist.m3u|catchup="append" catchup-source="?timeshift=${start}&timenow=${timestamp}" catchup-days="5"
http://site.com:8000/get.php?username=X&password=X&type=m3u_plus&output=ts|catchup=xc
http://site.com:8000/get.php?username=X:password=X|catchup=ez-ts catchup-source=240
in playlist header:
#EXTM3U catchup="append" catchup-source="?utc=${start}&lutc=${timestamp}"
and for each individual channel in playlist:
#EXTINF:0 catchup="default" catchup-source="http://site.com/archive/channel1.m3u8?utc=${start}&lutc=${timestamp}" catchup-days=3,Channel1
http://site.com/live/channel1.m3u8
Obviously, new catchup types will be added in the next app releases.
If you can provide us with a temporary server account with a new catchup type, this will be used to test and implement it in the next updates. Thanks for support!
