Product Information: Quickstart M15 OmniscreenTV IPTV STB

The Quickstart M15 OmniscreenTV IPTV STB is a stripped-down set-top box designed for easy handling. It is capable of digital signage and IPTV multicast streaming. The box requires an internet connection to install the basic OS and needs to get a script from a connected Linux device running to prepare it for digital signage/IPTV multicast streaming. The STB displays time and date information on the main screen, so it needs an NTP connection either getting these from the router or from the internet. It is recommended to have a tiny router installed that serves the boxes with a small internet connection and also handles their DHCP-IP addresses IPv4.

Product Usage Instructions: Setting up a DHCP-Router
To set up a DHCP-router for the Quickstart M15 OmniscreenTV IPTV STB, follow these steps:

  1. Get a Raspberry Pi single board computer and its original Raspberry Pi OS, a Raspberry Pi power adapter or a 2.1A USB power bank, an SD card reader for flashing Raspbian OS onto the microSD card, a microSD card, a network switch (10/100/1000 or 100/1000 Autosensing), Ethernet cables, and a Wi-Fi network to connect the Raspberry Pi to. You will also need a computer/laptop for configuring the Raspberry Pi.

  2. Flash the Raspbian OS onto the microSD card using an SD card reader.

  3. Connect the USB-penkey and navigate into the boot drive on your computer. Enable Telnet/SSH after boot.

  4. Create a new file wpa_supplicant.conf and type in the following lines to it:

         ctrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=netdev
     update_config=1
     country=US
     network={
         ssid=YOUR_WIFI_SSID
         psk=YOUR_WIFI_PASSWORD
         scan_ssid=1
         priority=1
     }

Change US to your land and replace YOUR_WIFI_SSID and YOUR_WIFI_PASSWORD with your Wi-Fi network’s SSID and password.

  1. Let the Raspberry Pi boot, check connection, and change the
    locales to your country and language in the next steps.

  2. Select the Wi-Fi access and run updates. Check IP and configure
    the Ethernet port if necessary.

  3. Connect the Raspberry Pi to the network switch and configure it to handle DHCP-IP addresses IPv4 for the Quickstart M15 OmniscreenTV IPTV STB.

Quickstart M15 OmniscreenTV IPTV STB -> Setup a DHCP-Router

BLANKOM-M15-OmniscreenTV-IPTV-STB-01Because this box has been stripped down for easy handling, you should know some essential facts:

  • – See also : IPTV-Multicast-OMM15_Manual.1.4.pdf
    – Factory defaults: It must be connected to the Internet to get the basic OS installed online
    o After the installing of the basic OS it needs to get a script from a connected Linux Device running to prepare it for the Digital Signage / IPTV Multicast streaming’s
    o The STB displays Time and date information on the main screen so it needs a NTP connection either getting these from the router or from the internet.
    o So it is almost helpful to have a tiny router installed which serves the boxes with small internet connection and also handles their DHCP.-IP addresses IPv4

We now like to give you a short introduction to setup a DHCP-Router for these boxes: Using a raspberry PI3/4 and its original Raspberry Pi OS: https://www.raspberrypi.com/software/operating-systems/ and by acting under this tutorial: https://linuxhint.com/raspberry_pi_wired_router/

We assume that you are familiar with setting up a RPI: Download, use RPImager and flash it. Than stay at the µSDCard by your windows/Linux-PC and add following to the USB-Boot-Folder:

Things You Need:
In order to configure your Raspberry Pi as a wired router, you need the following things:

  1. A Raspberry Pi single board computer
  2. A Raspberry Pi power adapter or a 2.1A USB power bank
  3. A SD card reader for flashing Raspbian OS onto the microSD card.
  4. A microSD card
  5. A network switch (10/100/1000 or 100/1000 Autosensing)
  6. Ethernet cables
  7. A Wi-Fi network to connect the Raspberry Pi to
  8. A computer/laptop for configuring the Raspberry Pi
    In this example case, we have an external WIFI-USP-Stick connected to the PI and a WIFI-in Reach.

We are using for this tutorial an older RPI2-Model.

The Network-switches can be set to the static IP address ranges and been managed by a connected PC in the same static or dynamic range at the switches. The Raspi can be handled by a laptop in the same WIFI – See picture:

BLANKOM-M15-OmniscreenTV-IPTV-STB-02

Flashing the OS: BLANKOM-M15-OmniscreenTV-IPTV-
STB-03

Flashing: BLANKOM-M15-OmniscreenTV-IPTV-STB-04

Re-Connect the USB-penkey: Now, you should see a boot drive on your computer. Navigate into it.

Do not format the 2nd linux partition (not visible under Windows)!!! Just go to the boot-partition and insert 2 files (use a notepad++ linux capable text editor – not a windows based please !:

Create an empty file named ssh this enables the RPI accessible by Telnet/SSH after boot.

Create a new file wpa_supplicant.conf and type in the following lines to it:

BLANKOM-M15-OmniscreenTV-IPTV-STB-7

ctrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=netdev update_config=1
country=US
network={
ssid=”YOUR_WIFI_SSID”
psk=”YOUR_WIFI_PASSWORD”
scan_ssid=1
priority=1
}

Change US to your land, DE in our case and here we use the I-Netrouter WIFI access: WIFI-PW= 21166445981716195140 , SSID = IRENIS2,4

This file will be copied to the /etc/wpa… folder during/after boot.
Now it’s time to eject the µSDcard and insert it into the RPI. Powering it up and connect the Switch with Ethernet before.
Let it boot, check connection and change the locales to your country and language in the next steps.

BLANKOM-M15-OmniscreenTV-IPTV-STB-08

Select the WIFI access and let run the updates and check IP:

As you can see, the Ethernet port is not configured yet.
If you are running the RPI as headless device w/o a connected HDMI-Monitor, Check your router what IP address has been delivered to your RPI… BLANKOM-M15-OmniscreenTV-IPTV-STB-09Terminal access by SSH with Putty or Kitty: BLANKOM-M15-OmniscreenTV-IPTV-
STB-10Now, open the cmdline.txt file and add ipv6.disable=1 at the end of the line to disable IPv6:
cd /boot
sudo nano cmdline.txt: BLANKOM-M15-OmniscreenTV-IPTV-
STB-11This may be done before the SDcard is inserted into the RPI.

Configuring the Network:
Now, create a network configuration file for wlan0 network interface as follows:

$ sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces.d/wlan0

BLANKOM-M15-OmniscreenTV-IPTV-STB-12

Now, type in the following lines and save the configuration file by pressing

\+ X followed by Y and .

allow-hotplug wlan0
iface wlan0 inet dhcp
wpa-conf /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf

BLANKOM-M15-OmniscreenTV-IPTV-STB-13Now, create a network configuration file for eth0 network interface as follows:

$ sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces.d/eth0 BLANKOM-M15-OmniscreenTV-IPTV-
STB-14

Now, type in the following lines and save the configuration file by pressing

\+ X followed by Y and .

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.1.1
netmask 255.255.255.0
Select the range you want to go with the STB’s. We keep it at 192.168.1.0/24…

Now, disable dhcpcd service with the following command:
$ sudo systemctl disable dhcpcd BLANKOM-M15-OmniscreenTV-IPTV-
STB-15

Now, restart your Raspberry Pi for the changes to take effect. SUDO REBOOT … you know that

Once your Raspberry Pi starts, check the network configuration of wlan0 network interface as follows:
$ ip addr show wlan0

wlan0 should get an IP address via DHCP But it can be a different than before

BLANKOM-M15-OmniscreenTV-IPTV-STB-16

Also, check the network configuration of eth0 network interface as follows:
$ ip addr show eth0

A static IP address should be assigned to the eth0 network interface. BLANKOM-M15-OmniscreenTV-IPTV-STB-16wlan0 and eth0, both should be configured correctly.

Configuring DHCP Server:

Now, update the APT package repository cache with the following command:

$ sudo apt update

BLANKOM-M15-OmniscreenTV-IPTV-STB-17 Install ISC DHCP server with the following command:
$ sudo apt install isc-dhcp-server BLANKOM-M15-OmniscreenTV-IPTV-
STB-18Off course Y BLANKOM-M15-OmniscreenTV-IPTV-
STB-19

Now, open the dhcpd.conf file as follows:
$ sudo nano /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf BLANKOM-M15-OmniscreenTV-IPTV-
STB-20Set the domain-name and domain-name-servers as follows. BLANKOM-M15-OmniscreenTV-IPTV-STB-21Or any other DNS in your region which is reliable…
We increase the lease time to 90 hours instead of 10 (600 sec).

Scroll down a little bit and uncomment authoritative; line: Than add these lines somewhere in the file:
subnet 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 { range 192.168.1.50 192.168.1.240;
option routers 192.168.1.1;
option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
} BLANKOM-M15-OmniscreenTV-IPTV-STB-23CTRL X Save Y and exit it.

Now, open the /etc/default/isc-dhcp-server configuration file as follows:
$ sudo nano /etc/default/isc-dhcp-server

BLANKOM-M15-OmniscreenTV-IPTV-STB-24

Add, eth0 to the INTERFACESv4 variable and save the file.

BLANKOM-M15-OmniscreenTV-IPTV-STB-25

Now, reboot the Raspberry Pi.

$ sudo reboot

BLANKOM-M15-OmniscreenTV-IPTV-STB-26

Once your Raspberry Pi starts, the isc-dhcp-server service should be active (running).

$ sudo systemctl status isc-dhcp-server BLANKOM-M15-OmniscreenTV-IPTV-
STB-27

Configuring the Firewall and Enable Packet Forwarding:
Now, install firewalld (daemon) as follows:

$ sudo apt install firewalld BLANKOM-M15-OmniscreenTV-IPTV-
STB-28

Press Y and then press to confirm the installation.

BLANKOM-M15-OmniscreenTV-IPTV-STB-29firewalld should now been installed. BLANKOM-M15-OmniscreenTV-IPTV-
STB-30

The firewalld service should be active (running) by default. Enter for checking:
$ sudo systemctl status firewalld

BLANKOM-M15-OmniscreenTV-IPTV-STB-31

Now, allow DHCP traffic through the firewall with the following command:
$ sudo firewall-cmd –add-service=dhcp –permanent

BLANKOM-M15-OmniscreenTV-IPTV-STB-32

Allow IP packet forwarding with the following command:
$ sudo firewall-cmd –add-masquerade –permanent

BLANKOM-M15-OmniscreenTV-IPTV-STB-33

Finally, reboot your Raspberry Pi.
$ sudo reboot

BLANKOM-M15-OmniscreenTV-IPTV-STB-34

You are ready to go and connect a STB to your Switch. Attention: The STBs have 100BaseT ports only!

BLANKOM-M15-OmniscreenTV-IPTV-STB-35With
tail –f /var/log/syslog
you’ll see the DHCP actions with every connected box.

Now we can prepare the Raspi for the FTP- channellist/group upload to the boxes and the initial IPTV setup of sending files, patching the Omniscreen default Firmware to the IPTV version:

The Raspi needs to have installed:

  • bash OK already installed in this Raspian
  • curl OK in this Raspian
  • expect No, so need to be installed
  • ssh OK in this Raspian

BLANKOM-M15-OmniscreenTV-IPTV-STB-36

It is almost helpful to install the Midnight Commander on the RPI:
sudo apt install mc

Via the RPI to manage the STB:
You need to install an FTP client or use the midnight commander:
After the STB has been IPTV-Patched, you can connect to its IP by FTP using MC: BLANKOM-M15-OmniscreenTV-IPTV-STB-37

After the IPTV patch the FTP access does not need a user/password combination and is open. So you can down- / upload new channel-lists and groups:

BLANKOM-M15-OmniscreenTV-IPTV-STB-38

SSH connectivity to the box and a few php commands after you entered into the IPTV Box by SSH:
User: admin
Password: O9kAdBQcTH7q3kNh ‘O’ not ‘0’ !!!

BLANKOM-M15-OmniscreenTV-IPTV-STB-39Of course your PC (or the RASPI itself) with Putty installed (ssh comandline will also work) can establish the remote connection to the IPTV-STB: BLANKOM-M15
-OmniscreenTV-IPTV-STB-40

Usefull ssh commands with PHP in the box:

  • Factory reset:
    php -r ‘tncommon_startfactoryreset(0, “AreYouSure”);’

  • Disable screensaver (ON by default):
    php –r ‘tncommon_enablescreensaver(0);’

  • Print available php tncommon api functions:
    php –r ‘print_r(get_extension_funcs(“tcommon”));’

There are a lot more …. For the specialistst who knows php…

One essential file for the STB-Configuration is:
hybridset.txt and is linked /stored in an extra flash nonvolatile partition:

BLANKOM-M15-OmniscreenTV-IPTV-STB-41cd /opt/data/settings/tv2next/:

BLANKOM-M15-OmniscreenTV-IPTV-STB-42

This file hybridset.txt is transferred with the IPTV patch from Omniscreen to this IPTV simple P&P design.
You can modify it to adjust eg. NTP-addresses and time/date/country settings. Please note, many of these config-entries are only for bigger installations with a middleware-server and extra hbbtv tools in the webkit browser and should not work here in the simple P&P setup:

[network] #network.prefdns=208.67.222.222

network.ntp=time.abox42.com

network.ntp=192.53.103.108

network.ntp=time.windows.com

example: if you use a domain and no IP than DNS need to be connected and

configured properly, maybe better to use 192.53.103.108 or .104 in Germany

hier sollten lokale Daten rein: DNS kann z.B. weltweit der Google sein

8.8.8.8 oder neutral 9.9.9.9, NTP Server sollte ein lokaler genommen werden.

server and port for vmx viewright web/ott

vmweb.server=74.62.179.10

vmweb.port=80

Back to the Raspi:
To use the RPI as the STB-Managing – unit, we copy the Box necessary content to it:

BLANKOM-M15-OmniscreenTV-IPTV-STB-43

By using curl or any ftp or just a USB stick and MC:
The USB stick is almost likely auto mounted by the RPI:

BLANKOM-M15-OmniscreenTV-IPTV-STB-44

After transfer they are located under a folder in the pi-home:

We need to check the execution bit of the script:

No it isn’t !!! so we need to make it executable:
sudo chmod 755 abox_42_iptv_setup.sh:

BLANKOM-M15-OmniscreenTV-IPTV-STB-48

Now we can use that to change values in an already DHCP-connected STB:
Example: we change the DNS in the hybridset.txt to google:
[network] #network.prefdns=208.67.222.222
network.prefdns=8.8.8.8

network.ntp=time.abox42.com

network.ntp=192.53.103.108

network.ntp=time.windows.com

hier sollten lokale Daten rein: DNS kann z.B. weltweit der Google sein

8.8.8.8 oder neutral 9.9.9.9, NTP Server sollte ein lokaler genommen werden.

So we know the IP address of the box – but if not just tail –f /var/log/syslog

Do the ./ before the *.sh script.

Hybridset.txt will be overwritten as well as the channels – and group.json – files which contains the channel-list and groups for the user:
That worked:

BLANKOM-M15-OmniscreenTV-IPTV-STB-49DNS changed to 9.9.9.9 … ping it 😉 Ntp time to time.windows.com

So that’s all for the moment,

  • You now have a DHCP-Server and STB config manager by a RASPBERRY PI
