TranscodingSettings
Unified Enigma2 SystemPlugin for hardware transcoding and the optional
enigma2-live555 HLS/RTSP service.
The plugin defines its configuration once and uses it directly everywhere:
config.plugins.transcodingsettings = ConfigSubsection()The config tree is:
config.plugins.transcodingsettings.enabled
config.plugins.transcodingsettings.port
config.plugins.transcodingsettings.encoder
config.plugins.transcodingsettings.encoder0.*
config.plugins.transcodingsettings.encoder1.*
config.plugins.transcodingsettings.live.*
config.plugins.transcodingsettings.hls.*
config.plugins.transcodingsettings.rtsp.*
encoder0 and encoder1 are created only for detected physical encoders. They
are ordinary named ConfigSubsection objects; no ConfigSubList is used.
There is no dynamic top-level section helper and no old-setting migration.
Calling config.plugins.transcodingsettings.save() or .cancel() recursively
handles the complete tree using Enigma2's normal config implementation.
The following mutable capability values are published when the plugin probes the receiver:
HasTranscodingSettings
TranscodingSettingsEncoderCount
TranscodingSettingsPort8001
TranscodingSettingsPort8002
TranscodingSettingsLive555
TranscodingSettingsHDMIInput
TranscodingSettingsEncoderSelection
They intentionally remain in the plugin. They let OpenWebif decide whether to
use the new Enigma2 path without importing plugin implementation helpers.
Configuration values themselves remain exclusively in
config.plugins.transcodingsettings.
The plugin returns no Enigma2 descriptors when no usable encoder is detected.
It supports /proc/stb/encoder/<index>, /dev/bcm_enc<index>,
/dev/encoder<index>, and Dreambox /dev/venc0 plus /dev/aenc0.
Only encoder 0 and encoder 1 are exposed.
The selector defaults to Auto (first free). Fixed encoder 0/1 selection is available for diagnostics and special clients.
- 8001: Enigma2 stream server; optional HLS/RTSP via
enigma2-live555. - 8002: classic BCM transcoding path; HLS/RTSP are never available.
HLS and RTSP are disabled by default. The daemon is started on demand only when at least one endpoint is enabled while transcoding uses port 8001, and stopped again when neither endpoint is needed.
The Basic view provides presets. Yellow opens the preset chooser, Blue toggles
Advanced, and Help displays the full setup.xml explanation for the selected
setting.
