Thank you for your suggestion! Sounds like a good idea to me.
What do you think a reasonable timeout would be? Maybe 30 seconds?

@barlowd55 do you want to give #200 a try? 😊

Thanks for the feature. I tried out the timeout option, but what I can see is that the client does not disconnect. It just keeps on trying to establish a connection and the app simply disconnects the connection.

My client app keeps polling trying to establish a connection but does not close the connection. Eventually the client times out with 500 error.

Is there a possibility to close the client connection, maybe by sending the correct header code or by calling the socket close function.

Commenting on the same issue, this is the error I get on console:

Not sure, but after some time, the code exists node app.

Thanks!

Is is possible that you're running an outdated version of IPTV-ReStream? This is a known issue (#238), but I've fixed it in https://github.com/n-thumann/IPTV-ReStream/releases/tag/v1.5.0.

ok, it's my fault, I got the source from docker hub (still not updated to the latest version)

But my ISP provide iptv through vlan, so here just format is needed, for example: rtp://@232.84.1.117:10254

is there to watch live

while the multicastadressliste.json file requires media_multicast_sourceip to be filled in.

Can I customize?

For example, with updxy, I'm watching live like this

Thank you so much and Have a nice day!

VLANs are beyond the control of an application. Looks are you have a RTP multicast address, but without a specific source.

while the multicastadressliste.json file requires media_multicast_sourceip to be filled in.
Can I customize?

For the missing multicast source IP, one option would be to figure out (e.g. by inspecting the traffic with Wireshark) what the actual source IP is and use that one.
If that's not possible, feel free to adjust the code in a fork. For my side, I would prefer to keep the source IP mandatory, because this app is intended for source specific multicast :)
