ioBroker.waipu

Deutsch: README.de.md

Integrates waipu.tv into ioBroker: channel list, EPG (TV guide), currently running programs and cloud recordings (DVR) — directly as ioBroker data points.

Note: This adapter is not authorized by waipu.tv. It uses an unofficial API whose endpoints can change at any time.

Manufacturer / service: https://www.waipu.tv

Origin

The API knowledge is based on the open-source work on ha-waipu (Home Assistant integration by GB-1972). This adapter is a new, independent implementation for ioBroker — with its own structure, error handling and state management. Thanks to the ha-waipu groundwork! 🙏

Features

• Channel list: all channels included in your subscription, as data points
• EPG: current and next program per channel, plus an EPG-JSON window (30 min back / 2 h ahead)
• Cloud recordings (DVR): list, count and details of your waipu.tv recordings
• Connection status: info.connection shows the login/connection state
• Automatic token renewal: the session stays alive via refresh token; tokens are stored encrypted

Requirements

• ioBroker with js-controller >= 3.3.0
• A valid waipu.tv account (subscription — channels, EPG and DVR depend on your tariff)

Installation

1. Open ioBroker → Adapters → install the adapter (from npm or an archive)
2. Add an instance (e.g. waipu.0)
3. Enter your waipu.tv e-mail and password in the instance settings
4. Choose an update interval (default: 15 minutes) and save — the adapter logs in and fills the data points

Configuration

| Field | Description | |-------|-------------| | waipu.tv e-mail | E-mail of your waipu.tv account | | waipu.tv password | Password of your waipu.tv account (stored encrypted) | | Update interval (minutes) | 5–1440, default 15 | | Device ID / Access Token / Refresh Token | Filled automatically by the adapter on login (read-only) |

Data points

| State | Type | Description | |-------|------|-------------| | info.connection | boolean | Connection to waipu.tv active | | channels.<id>.* | various | Channel name, logo, EPG JSON, currentProgram, nextProgram, start/stop times | | recordings.list | JSON | All cloud recordings (JSON) | | recordings.count | number | Number of recordings | | recordings.<id>.* | various | Title, status, station, start time, duration per recording |

Troubleshooting

• info.connection = false + login errors in the log: check your credentials, then restart the instance
• No channels / no EPG: check your tariff (some channels are locked) and the log for API changes
• API changes: since the API is unofficial, endpoints can change at any time — an adapter update usually fixes that

Disclaimer

• Unofficial API, not supported by waipu.tv
• Use at your own risk, intended for private use; please observe the waipu.tv terms of use
• No liability for damage or outages
