Sasktel IPTV

This isn't a definitive guide, just what I did to get Sasktel IPTV working on my box. I'm running KnoppMyth (So that's Debian, then). You will need:

  • (At least 1 "Spare") Sasktel Max box (Motorola VIP1200P)
  • Second network card

Note: The network information given by DHCP from the DSLAM for your second network card will not be internet routable. For each MAC address, it appears the DSLAM will only allocate 2 video streams. If you want to record more than 2 at once, you'll need 3 network cards (More than 4, 4 network cards, and so on).

Take the MAC address (00:21:80:xx:yy:zz) from the underside of your spare box, and set the second network card's MAC to match it. You can do this in /etc/network/interfaces like so: 

# /etc/network/interfaces -- configuration file for ifup(8), ifdown(8)

# The loopback interface
# automatically added when upgrading
auto lo eth0 eth1
iface lo inet loopback

iface eth0 inet dhcp

iface eth1 inet dhcp
        # Set up the hardware (MAC) address
        hwaddress ether 00:21:80:xx:yy:zz

        # Ensure IGMP is v2 and rp_filter is OFF
        pre-up echo 2 >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/eth1/force_igmp_version
        pre-up echo 0 >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/eth1/rp_filter

        # Ensure multicast requests are routed to this interface
        up route add -net 224.0.0.0/4 eth1

Before you can bring up eth1 however, you also need to do a little fakery with dhclient. Note, the MAC address is used here again, in a few places. Set /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf like this: 

interface "eth1" {
   # Note, no "routers" in this request. The default gateway for the IPTV 
   # connection won't route internet traffic. So if we don't ask for one,
   # we don't lose our 'net access
   request subnet-mask, broadcast-address, time-offset, domain-name, host-name;

   # The DNS server given to us is wrong, and will not look up any sites.
   # override this with one we know is good (In this case, the gateway address
   # for eth0.
   supersede domain-name-servers 192.168.1.254;

   # Hello Mr. DSLAM, I am a VIP1200 box
   send host-name "CED002180xxyyzz";
   # See my shiny Motorola-assigned hostname?
   send dhcp-client-identifier 01:00:21:80:xx:yy:zz;
   # See my pretty Motorola-assigned MAC address?
   send vendor-class-identifier "MotoVIP1200P_sasktel-6.2.0.011";
   # And see my sasktel firmware provided ID string?
   # Please can I have a 10.110 range IP address?
   # I'm really not faking this!
}

This should be enough to fool the DSLAM into thinking you're second network card is a VIP1200P box, and when you bring up eth1 you should get a private address in the 10.110.x.x range. If you do, congratulations!

Now you need an m3u file to tune the network recorder to. This one is all the channels I could find today (20-Dec-2008), without the HD, french, PPV, VOD or DV channels included (As I don't have the HD package at the moment, PPV/VOD doesn't work with this system, and DV (Described Video) is kinda surplus to requirements). It also has XMLTV IDs for mc2xml (http://mc2xml.110mb.com/)

If you are using mc2xml, please note that MythFillDB will try and create the "Missing" channels on import, unless you cull them from mc2xml's output. You can do this with a channels file. As I had the list of XMLTV IDs I have available already to hand (I used OpenOffice Calc to compile the above m3u), I put just the XMLTV IDs in the channels file, which makes mc2xml export only those channels. The initial filldatabase run took 3 hours (! AMD Sempron 1800+, 512MB RAM). I'll be checking my logs on Monday to see how long the next run took.

With that set up, you should be all set. Enjoy watching your Sasktel Max!
