See fb27202 and 001d898

Plus filter by all EPG names in XML, not just a single "display-name" string produced by friendlyDisplayName() function

I did add this as a request on the main xTeVe page, but it seems like this fork is actively worked on, so thought I would switch over and ask here :)

There are is a group of channels (PPV) whereby part of the channel name changes on a regular (daily basis)
So day one it may be
PPV1: Swimming championships
PPV2: Knitting live fron granny house
etc etc

So I add a filter, group = PPV and then in mapping, I set channel numbers and map a dummy xteve file to the channels

Then on day 2 it's changed
PPV1: Championship mowing
PPV2: Hot air ballooning world championships

When xteve does its' daily import, because the channel name is different, it loses its channel number and mapping (as it thinks it is a new channel) and because it has no XMLTV file associated with it, it then wouldn't be seen in NextPVR and Kodi etc..

Describe the solution you'd like
Is it possible that when you click on a channel in the mapping section to be able to have additional checkbox and input line under "channel description".
Tickbox saying "Allow wildcard?"
And the input line saying "Channel Wildcard"

So I could click on channel 3001 where the channel name currently reads PPV1: Swimming championships
Select allow wildcard
in in channel wildcard, enter "PPV1: *"
Meaning that he next day, when xteve updates and the imported channel name is now PPV1: Championship mowing
It will still know to assign it the channel 3001 amd use the XMLTV File: xTeVe Dummy and the XMLTV Channel 30 Minutes

As a further protection against it incorrectly naming other channels that may start PPV1 in.. it will also use the "group" that it is assigned to as another check... so will only match PPV1: * to 3001 if it's in the PPV group.

There may be a way to already do this? but if there is... I do not know what it is :(

The message is:
[xTeVe] [ERROR] open \tmp\xteve\2019-01-DEV-xTeVe!\restore.zip: The system cannot find the path specified.

Probably as an option?

For now, waiting for response to avfs/avfs#4

I havent tried your fork yet but with the original version I ran into an issue where Plex is rewriting the http protocol to https causing channel icons/posters to not show up.

As for the add HTTPS:// if missing, ran into an issue where some of my posters did not load because they were missing the protocol and plex interpreted it as a internal file causing a 404 when loading the img.

Describe the solution you'd like
Simple solution add SSL support

Describe alternatives you've considered
I currently am using a combo of a nginx reverse proxy for the SSL, and a few sed replace scripts to rewrite the xml file with the proper changes

Additional context
I do have my plex setup a little different then most, I have relay turned off and ssl enabled with a custom cert. It is possible that combo is whats forcing me to only use ssl urls if no one else is having this issue.

1. Add Custom Filter
2. Observe no way to edit Starting Number

... always or when input is empty.

First off: thanks so much for the good work you're doing in this fork of xTeVe!

I came across your fork, while getting ready to do my own implementation of "Starting Channel Number" for filter groups, and it looks like you already have it. But: it seems like it isn't working.
I tried setting a Starting Channel Number for an existing group, and it didn't change their channel numbers (I'm not sure if that should work or not), and I removed a group filter, and re-added it with a Starting Channel number of 9000, but the channels still mapped in after the next available channel in the 1000s.

If it is expected to be working, let me know and I'll gather additional debug info. I just wanted to make sure it's expected to be working before I get too far into troubleshooting.
Thanks again!

No this is not really a problem but more a request for support for downloadable docker image.

Describe the solution you'd like
I wonder if there are docker images available.

Describe alternatives you've considered
You are the only one who is updating this application now with lots of fixes.

Unless it's a loopback or link-local address.

My clients buffer more often than I'd expect, when using the xTeVe (and ffmpeg and VLC) buffer. I'm not exactly sure what's causing it, but looking at how much is written and read from disk is interesting.

Describe the solution you'd like
Might it be better to store the buffer in memory, instead of all the writes/reads to the temp directory?

Describe alternatives you've considered
N/A

Additional context
I just want to get some input on this thought. Feel free to let me know what you think.

When channels are disabled in the "Mapping" section, they should not appear in either of the m3u8 or dvr outputs. However, this is currently not the case and all channels regardless of their state are returned.

version: 2.4.1.0000

Thanks for your hard work on this fork @SCP002 :)

Javascript issue breaks scrolling on Logs page.

It would be very nice if you could view the Starting Channel for each filter group from the table (instead of having to click on the row, to view it in the popup).
