Hi all

I'm running LE for some years, coming from mediaportal (with DVB-C tuner back then)

In the meantime, I'm using IPTV through a few add-ons from the stations: this works fine.

I also discovered, and use, IPTV Manager and that also fit's the bill.

Now I was wondering if there are ways to record IPTV streams on my server (Proxmox VE with a few LXC's).

I already use Jellyfin for my media and it's library function.

My question: is it possible to schedule/record these IPTV streams without additional hardware?

Thanks for any tips/help!

Thanks for that Backup/Restore tip!

I'm giving the Aeon Nox silvo skin a try.

Anyone knows how to use a Jellyfin library as a new source/menu item in the main menu?

From the 'Main Menu Customizer' I have tried quite a lot of things but with no luck.

Hi Borygo77, thanks for the tip.

I'm a little reluctant to install another skin since it might break things but I will give it a try.

Thanks a lot anyway!

Hi Da Flex, thanks for your explanation.

I know about the possibilities with the favorites and already use them for certain subfolders on the server and tv programs that I stream (IPTV)

As you can see from my explanation, I'm looking for a way that has even fewer steps.

Thanks guys for jumping in!

I will explain why I wanted to do this since that seemed the 'best' way to make it more user-friendly (as in higher WAF)

I'm using Jellyfin, which I recently discovered.

These are the kind of different media on a samba share:

1. Movies
2. TV Shows
3. Concerts/Music Videos
4. Self recorded/converted video material
5. Pictures

- Movies & TV Shows are accessible directly through the main menu and this works fine, so not necessary to change anything there.

- For Pictures: it would make it very simple to be able to go directly to the Pictures section in the main menu, and seeing the content instead of getting the share/library AND another icon/link to 'Picture add-ons'.

That makes it more confusing and one 'can get lost' in browsing whereas, like with Movies/TV Shows, you don't have this problem.

- Concerts/Music Videos: is not populated atm, have to check what goes wrong between LE & Jellyfin.

- Self recorded material: I also thought of having a direct link to this library, apart from the other video sections

If there is another/better way to achieve this: very welcome!

TIA

Is it possible to add another item to the main (side) menu so when clicking on it you navigate directly to media instead of having sub categories?

Just like 'Movies' and 'TV Shows'.

Thanks in advance!

HiassofT, Can I do this on a running system or do I have to unmount and edit on another system?

Hi, thanks for your reply and looking into it!

The crash happens after opening a folder with pictures on the source; it has previews.

Here is the log:

Hi all, new user/first post.

I have 2 RPi4 with latest LibreElec which work fine.

Except when viewing pictures on 1 of them: the system crashes & reboots every time.

Media is on a networkshare.

Any idea what might be wrong or what I can do to get an idea about it?

Thanks a lot for helping out!
