It uses OpenSSL to create a new server certificate (servercert.pem). The “Add Local Addresses” button adds the computer name and all IP addresses to the list, under which the Media Server is accessible in the local (home) network.Ĭ reate certificate : This button executes the batch file CreateHTTPSCertificates,bat. A newly-created certificate is only valid for domains and addresses in the list. It serves for encrypting the content of the key files, thus making them useless for an attacker who steals them.Īdd addresses: A multiline input field on t he “Certificate Creation” panel allows to add IP addresses and domain names, that shall be accessible for Media Server clients with HTTPS (one per line, without protocol and port).

Password protection: On the “Create Certificate” panel you can optionally enter a password as additional security measure. This activates the “Certificate Creation” panel on the HTTPS Settings page. T he initially installed files only enable HTTPS for “localhost” and 127.0.0.1, unless modified.Ĭertificate creation: For modifying the pre-installed certificate the Media Server Options (svcoptions.exe) must be launched with admin rights (see Tray Tool menu → Configure with Admin Rights). The default files are serverkey.pem and servercert.pem in t he new Certificate s sub-directory of the DVBViewer Media Server installation directory. If the key and certificate are present in a single file, it must be specified in both input lines. The key and certificate file can be selected on the new Media Server Options → HTTPS Settings page. Without it HTTPS remains disabled in the Web Server. S erver key and certificate selection: HTTPS requires a key for encrypting data and a server certificate for proving its identity. Since the server needs less resources without HTTPS activation, it should only be used if necessary. H TTPS Activation: The checkbox “Activate HTTPS” on the new “ Media Server Options → HTTPS Settings” page e nables HTTPS and lets the Media Server listen on the HTTPS port for incoming connections. The port number must be unused by other server instances within the Media Server and other servers running on the PC. The HTTPS port can be entered on the Media Server Options → Web/UPnP page. Port assignment: HTTPS requires a separate port, so that HTTP still works if the Web Server is configured for HTTPS. S ince th e HTTPS includes encryption and authentication by certificates, some preparations are necessary: Please note that this (and the following) does not apply to other server instances (Live Stream, Media Stream, UPnP, RTSP).

It is not necessary anymore to stop and restart the server for this. Miscellaneous : The Media Server automatically reloads the channel or favorites list at runtime if it detects that it has been changed by another program (DVBViewer or TransEdit). Streaming: The Media Server as streaming client supports MPEG Dash as new format. Recording : S everal measures enhance the usability of timer recordings, including the automatic creation of timers by EPG search mechanisms. Tuner type icons in channel list s make it easier to recognize channels if more than one reception type (like satellite and terrestrial) is used. Web Interface : Several fixes and detail enhancements facilitate the usage of the desktop and mobile web interface. The creation and usage of self-signed certificates is supported. Web Server: The server now accepts HTTPS connections, after being configured accordingly. “Associated” means in this context, that DVBViewer Options → DVBViewer Media Server → Enable support for the DVBViewer M edia Server is switched on and the Media Server in question is selected on th is page. Before using it, every DVBViewer in the network that is associated with the Media Server should be updated to version 7.x, because there may be compatibility issues with older DVBViewer 6. Please note: The DVBViewer Media Server 3.x contains major changes.
