IPTV via multi-PVC with FB 7170?

[argd]

Hello everyone, sorry for posting in english :sad:
I suppose, my question is already answered here, but it's quite difficult for me to search in Deutsch... So just a link to correct thread would be enough.
.
I'm really happy with my FB 7170 bought in Germany and converted to int. version (thank you guys btw). The only problem left unresolved is IPTV.
.
My ISP provides IPTV via multi-PVC on the same line, so order to set it up I have to configure 4 VPI/VCI (1/33, 6/36, 6/35, 6/34) in bridge mode in addition to my PPPoE via PVC 8/35 in router mode.
I didn't even pay any attention to that buying my fritzbox, as almost any cheap dsl router could do this job. But FB 7170 GUI supports only 1 connection... So sad.
.
At the same time, it seems FB's DSL modem supports multiple PVC, so is there any plugin available to implement that? Maybe some "Freetz" apps?
.
TIA!

stefha, sorry for delay with this reply.
Thank you really much! It looks like the thing I tried to find out!
Actually, I saw all those "Alice threads" here, but I thought it is not a solution for me.
In parallel, I was thinking that all I have to implement is some kind of bridge b/ween all those PVCs.
.
Now, with your advice, I checked it deeper and I see it's exactly that solution!
The only problem is while I modified my FB, my ISP temporarily stopped to provide IPTV Hence the delay with my reply.
But I hope it should work for me!
WBR!

Hello again, still cannot make it works....
Right on FB start up, I can see any IPTV channel, but never can switch then to another one. Doesn't matter what first tuned channel was.
I took my old ADSL router, and it works fine there with an option "IGMP router" (not "IGMP proxy") turned on. But cannot get, how to emulate similar option using igmpproxy on FB.

My "Freetz: rc.custom: is:

brctl addbr iptv
ifconfig iptv up
ifconfig iptv 169.254.3.54 netmask 255.255.0.0

onlinechanged script as commented above.

cat /tmp/flash/igmp_conf is

Tried to change iptv IP settings, it doesn't change anything.

Would appreciate ANY idea/clue/suggestion, even not complete solution, even wrong ones.
Thank you in advance!

so, here is the problem:

2011-08-24 00:52:57.712526 XXX 2459 read_buf: read: Resource temporarily unavailable

it repeats again and again with any other channels. A "workaround" is something like :

killall udpxy
sleep 60
udpxy -a 192.168.178.1 -p 7777 -m iptv

But it's crazy to do that every time I want to switch channel

If I combine all those nasX ifaces with lan bridge - at the channel switch I lost inet connection, ssh connection to FB and GUI freezes.

 

[argd]

Played a bit more... It's actually doesn't matter, which config to choose: even with simple bridge to lan, without any igmpproxy or udpxy, using regular multid, result is the same.
And tcpdump shows, I'm still subscribed to that first channel, traffic continues even when I close any IPTV player.
So, it looks like router doesn't receive my LEAVE messages.
But I ran out of idea how to fix that...
Any idea?
