Podcast covers everything to do with getting the most from your Linux Server plus a focus on all things Docker and containerisation!

linuxserver/minisatip

Minisatip is a multi-threaded satip server version 1.2 that runs under Linux and it was tested with DVB-S, DVB-S2, DVB-T, DVB-T2, DVB-C, DVB-C2, ATSC and ISDB-T cards.

Usage

docker create \
--name=minisatip \
-e PGID=<gid> -e PUID=<uid> \
-e TZ=<timezone> \
-e RUN_OPTS=<parameter> \
-p 8875:8875 -p 554:554 \
-p 1900:1900/udp
--device=/dev/dvb \
linuxserver/minisatip

Parameters

The parameters are split into two halves, separated by a colon, the left hand side representing the host and the right the container side. For example with a port -p external:internal - what this shows is the port mapping from internal to external of the container. So -p 8080:80 would expose port 80 from inside the container to be accessible from the host's IP on port 8080 http://192.168.x.x:8080 would show you what's running INSIDE the container on port 80.

-p 8875 - the port(s)
-p 554 - the port(s)
-p 1900/udp - the port(s)
-v /config -
-e PGID for GroupID - see below for explanation
-e PUID for UserID - see below for explanation
-e RUN_OPTS additional runtime parameters - see below for explanation
--device=/dev/dvb - for passing through Tv-cards.
-e TZ for timezone information, eg Europe/London

It is based on alpine with s6 overlay, for shell access whilst the container is running do docker exec -it minisatip /bin/bash.

User / Group Identifiers

Sometimes when using data volumes (-v flags) permissions issues can arise between the host OS and the container. We avoid this issue by allowing you to specify the user PUID and group PGID. Ensure the data volume directory on the host is owned by the same user you specify and it will "just work" ™.

In this instance PUID=1001 and PGID=1001. To find yours use id user as below:

  $ id <dockeruser>
    uid=1001(dockeruser) gid=1001(dockergroup) groups=1001(dockergroup)

Additional runtime parameters

In some cases it might be necessary to start minisatip with additional parameters, for example to configure a unicable LNB. Add the parameters you need and restart the container. Be sure to have the right parameters set as adding the wrong once might lead to the container not starting correctly. For a list of minisatip parameters visit minisatip page.

Setting up the application

Best used in conjunction with tvheadend

There is no setup per se, other than adding your cards for passthrough.

You can then use your cards as DVB inputs in apps such as tvheadend.

Info

To monitor the logs of the container in realtime docker logs -f minisatip.
container version number

docker inspect -f '{{ index .Config.Labels "build_version" }}' minisatip

image version number
