Q: If I use VDR, how to open the VDR GUI, is there a URL or IP?
A: When you configure VDR via the web-user-interface, VDR is configured to do streaming via VNSI (VDR-Network-Streaming-Interface). that’s why there is no VDR GUI. So, you can use IP/URL on your client device to access VNSI streaming of the channels, here are few examples:
a)
Start XBMC
Go to System -> Settings -> Add-on ->Disable Add-on ->PVR clients -> VDR
VNSI Client -> Configure -> VDR hostname or IP -> MOI IP, for example, if
the MOI IP is 192.168.1.188, input 192.168.1.188. -> Enable.
Go to Live TV -> TV channels, now you watch TV from the channel list.
b)
Start VLC
Go to Media -> Open Network Stream -> input http://192.168.1.188:3000/channels.m3u
for example, if the MOI IP is 192.168.1.188, it should be:
http://192.168.1.188:3000/channels.m3u
