api:iptv:app:channel_startover

API : IPTV : App : Channel start over

Introduction

This request is used by the iOS/Android apps and web clients to get the streaming url for archive streaming of a channel. The start time will automatically be set to the start time of the program currently being broadcasted on the channel.

This is also used by the system to track that the device is now showing the channel, so it's important to call Channel stop when playback ends.

Request

URL https://api.telecomx.dk/iptv/app/channel/CHANNEL_ID/startover
Method GET
Params CHANNEL_ID Id of the channel to start streaming.
Query token String Session token.
lat Number GPS Latitude position in decimal format.
long Number GPS Longitude position in decimal format.
mode String [optional] Specifies type of streams to return: DASH, HLS or ALL for both.
