SopCast without PC - ganchito55 - 7th Dec, 2013 07:52 AM
Hi we can just run SopCast in owns Raspberry Pi.
Here is the download
With this file we can:
- Watch all SopCast link like sop://broker.sopcast.com:3912/146690
- Mange a channel list
1) Download the .tar file
2) run $ tar xvf sopcast.tar
3) Now we have a folder named sopcast, run: $ cd sopcast
4) Create a file to play with XBMC. run $ cd ~/.xbmc/userdata/playlists/video/
5) run $ nano sopcast.strm
6) write: "http://127.0.0.1:12345" (without " )
7)run the software with: $ ./tv.sh
7.1) $ ./tv.sh num (num is the channel number)
7.2) $ ./tv.sh sop://broker.sopcast.com:3912/146690
7.3) $ ./tv.sh --help (for show instructions)
7.4) $ ./tv.sh --chanel (for show the channel list)
7.4) $ ./tv.sh --stop (for stop the streaming)
8) Go to XBMC/Videos/PlayList and play sopcast.strm
BUGS
Sometimes, you only heard the sound and image is black. You need to stop and then play the file. Sometimes you need to do this more than one time, but finally it always works

Thank you for all hard work that you do for becoming XBian in the best Operating System for Raspberry Pi

Many thanks for the information.
If I understand correctly - there may well be an add-on coming soon.

Well If XBMC has an addon that it can send instrucctions to terminal. It was very easy develop XBMC with SopCast inside.
If you need more information or something like that, I'll try to answer your questions.

Well, run:
$ sudo chmod 700 tv.sh
(with this, you will have all permission (read write and execution )
Also you can show the permission with $ ls -l

thanks. but could not get it to work. don't know what im doing wrong either.
I run ./sh.tv sop:// channel id
then go to sopcast.strm and press enter but get error 'cant find whats next' or something like that.
RE: SopCast without PC - ganchito55 - 16th Dec, 2013 02:21 AM
I don't know why you have this error.
Try to do this:
search a link, like this sop://broker.sopcast.com:3912/144378
copy only 144378
run $ sop.sh 144378
and then play sopcast.strm in XBMC
This is the original method for use SopCast in Raspberry Pi, I only create other Shell Script (tv.sh). with tv.sh is easier to manage SopCast and It has others options such as stop, save channel and show list.
