IPTV Stream Verification

The program is simple and used to check the working of IPTV Channels.

It takes the Channel List from an Excel file and performs various checks regarding the stream, and grabs the details like:

• Working condition [working/not-working]
• Audio Bit-rate
• Video Bit-rate
• Video Encoding [H.264/HEVC/etc]
• Audio Encoding [AC3/etc]
• Encryption Status
• Resolution
• Multi-Language Support
• Subtitle
• TCP Source IP
• IGMP v2 and v3 Querry.

Just create the excel file in the same directory with the following details:

• Channel Name [CHANNEL NAME]
• Stream IP [MULTICAST IP]
• Port Number [PORT]

It should look like this

Now just start the program with the following arguments

• your output file name
• interface from which you receive the multicast stream
• and Excel file name

eg: python iptv.py rexter eth0.100 dataexcel.xlsx

And you will get the results in an excel file which will look like this.
