  6. The PHP version of the panel requires libcurl3 but this library is automatically removed on recent Ubuntu when installing a package that requires libcurl4. The two versions of libcurl are mutually exclusive. If libcurl3 is missing, the panel PHP binary and php-fpm process manager will not work. To get the panel working again just reinstall libcurl3: apt install libcurl3 -y If you need to use the curl cli tool, you can download a static binary that doesn't need external libraries.
  7. You can manually symlink your streams directory to a directory on disk: ln -s /home/midnightstreamer/iptv_midnight_streamer/streams /disk/streams DON'T symlink the streams directory on the same disk your panel is running on. Stressing the disk where the database resides is BAD practice.
  8. One useful feature that goes hand-in-hand with Direct Streams in on-demand mode is URL Mapping. Creating MAPS allows you to dynamically change the URL or part of a URL when connecting to a remote server. Let's say you want to randomly change the username and password included in a URL of the stream, so that the remote server sees a different user who connects each time one of your users opens a certain stream on your server. Always connecting with the same user to a single stream will definitely end up with a ban. It's easy for the remote server to detect if you are restreaming, even if you've changed the user agent. With URL Mapping you can get around this type of restrictions. This is an example of how you can implement URL Mapping: First you create a stream, setting a placeholder "{my credentials}" anywhere in the URL you find useful: In Redirects & Rewrites -> Maps you can add as many MAPS as you need. In the example below we want to map {my credentials} to some username and password. The maps are chosen randomly every time the stream is started, if the stream is in on-demand mode or according to "Change map every X minutes" if it is not in on-demand mode. You can map any part of the URL including protocol, DNS and port number.
  9. Contrary to what other panels do, MidnightStreamer does not merge multiple VODs into a single immutable mega file when creating custom channels. In MidnightStreamer, Custom Channels are real dynamic live channels based on MPEG-TS feeds that can be changed on the fly without interrupting users' viewing. This method is much more fun and is similar to how professional software for TV stations works. You can combine static and live feeds, much like TV stations do when they schedule movies and live news. When the schedule expires with no new feed provided, the channel loops seamlessly and indefinitely until a new feed is provided, never interrupting users' viewing. ➡️ You can even set your custom EPG title and description for each feed/event.
  10. Proxy means to act on behalf of. I understand it can be confused with HTTP proxy. Passthrough is probably a more descriptive term here. Thank you for your suggestion!
  11. In order to connect Ministra to the panel you need to follow a few simple steps: 1) Create a new Line in the panel and set This line will be used in STALKER Portal to Yes. 2) Create a Channel in Ministra and click on "Add Link": 3) Insert the Channel URL in this format (mind the "ts" suffix): http://panel-ip:8000/live/username/password/1.ts Select "Xtream-Codes" from the dropdown list: 4) Copy your stalker key from the panel (System -> General Settings -> Stalker Key): Open (or create if not present) custom.ini in the /var/www/html/stalker_portal/server directory of your Ministra server and add your stalker key: [xtream_codes_key] xtream_key=2770afbb5aade2092adc02592c35f24a Congratulations ! You have just linked Ministra to MidnightStreamer. When a MAG device will connect to Ministra, it will be logged in the panel under the Client Connection Log. Note: In older Stalker Portals, the "Xtream-Codes" option is not present in the Temporary URL dropdown list. In this case you have to copy 3 files in the Stalker Portal: ⚠️Make a backup of your existing itv.class.php, add_itv.php and custom.ini. Copy itv.class.php to /var/www/html/stalker_portal/server/lib Copy add_itv.php to /var/www/html/stalker_portal/server/administrator Copy custom.ini to /var/www/html/stalker_portal/server itv.class.phpadd_itv.phpcustom.ini Open /var/www/html/stalker_portal/server/custom.ini and set your stalker key: [midnight_streamer_key] midnight_key=your_live_streaming_pass_here Now you can choose the MidnightStreamer IPTV Support option from the Temporary URL dropdown list.
  12. All clients with a pro or starter license have been extended the expiration date of the updates to December 31, 2023. Unfortunately, the release of V5 will shift further as we need to step up efforts on the current branch. The TODO list is still long and maintaining two branches is demanding, so we decided to prioritize important features like dynamic cache, new improved firewall, active codes and standalone installation with local activation. All V4 clients are guaranteed the upgrade to V5.
  13. Yes it can be done. No need for extra payments for suggested features.
  14. No, the Ministra player cannot be used with the MS embedded portal. The stalker option is used to connect the stalker portal with the MS panel streams.
  15. Submit a ticket. We can't find the problem you are referring to on other servers.
  16. After the next release there will be an option to order audio tracks of live streams.
  17. This can be solved by moving the favorites list after the All category, this way the All category will be active by default when the portal starts. There is no option in the UI to move the favorites list. Submit a ticket and I'll send you a patch. In the next panel release the All category will be at the top of the category list and there will be an option to hide the Favorites list.
  18. Since the option "Open after loading" is set by default to "Last TV channel", you have to select and confirm at least once the option "Main menu" and then switch it back to "Last TV channel" for this option to work.
  19. Submit a ticket with your server details.
  20. Submit a ticket and the list of bugs you are experiencing. We can't replicate the duplicated streams that occur on your UI, so your live environment would be of great help. We are used to systematically solve each problem, one by one that customers reports us. We will publish the next panel release at the end of august which will include important improvements and new features. V5 will be released between november and december but it will not affect the problem that you are currently having with duplicating streams, so we advise you to submit a ticket.
  21. MS panel is compatible with Ubuntu up to version 22.
  22. We are sorry we have to shift the release of the new UI but we get constant requests for new features and improvements at core level, some of which are urgent. We are confident that V5 will be released soon after the current TODO list is completed (or at least after v4.7). However, we have not received any complaints regarding the current UI. What part of the UI do you find being buggy? We can fix the specific part till V5 is out.
  23. Make sure you are using decoders: NVDEC / encoders: NVENC to offload CPU from decoding. If you set your transcoding profile to encoders: NVENC only, the decoding will be done by the CPU, and decoding is a CPU intensive task. Yes, on-demand streams work with both HLS/MPEGTS and you can set backups, but if the first stream fails, the backup stream can take a while to activate, so backups are not ideal for on-demand streams. If you use on-demand to save bandwidth, I strongly suggest to use Proxy streams as they open in less than 1s. Adaptive streaming is done automatically so you can't manually assign streams to different users. It could be a good idea for a future option though to force users to use a defined adaptive level . You can add (multi-language) softsubs or burn hardsubs to VODs.
  24. Currently it is not possible. It will be possible with the next panel release.
  25. Sure, it can be done easily. Expect it in the next release.
