After installing v26.1.1 the plugin works again without having to implement changes on the code. Thank you guys for the work.

Yeah it must be something related with anchors. I will check it, thank you.

It's not. It was originally developed by someone else but I ended up taking that code, applying some fixes and installing manually on my machine. It has been doing its job since then. After upgrading from 25.7.11 to 26.1 it still worked in terms of not crashing, but it wasn't doing it's job because it can no longer capture the requests that the tv box sends to the RTSP server. I never submitted the plugin to the plugins repo because I think the code quality is not good enough to be used by someone else (I'm not a python dev, I fixed it just enough for it to work), but it was doing its job for me. I started using it with OPNsense 24 and it never failed or crashed. And as far I know there's no "compatibility mode" for the firewall on 26.1 that would allow me to continue using the plugin. Also on that plugins list I see that igmp-proxy is no longer maintained (I also use it). I'm a bit concerned that some future update will include a breaking change that will cause also igmp-proxy to stop working.

Hi everyone. I have a plugin on my OPNsense instance to route the RTSP traffic that the ISP uses for the video on demand on the TV service. That plugin worked fine on v25.7 but on v26.1 it no longer works.
The plugin basically intercepts any request that goes from the TV to a given list of IPs on port 554, and then it configures the firewall to route the incoming video stream packets from the RTSP server to the TV.
Now on v26.1 the plugin is not able to intercept that requests, so in consequence it doesn't route the video stream from the server to the TV.
I saw on the change log that there are some major changes on the firewall, and I want to know how can I make to work that process of intercepting the packets and then configuring the firewall accordingly on v26.1.

Hi everyone.

I have installed OPNSense on one of these fanless mini PCs with multiple network ports to act as my home router.

On my home, I have an Internet connection and an IPTV service with Movistar, one of the main Spanish ISPs. The Internet connection is working fine since the first moment, but I'm having a lot of problems to configure OPNSense to handle the IPTV traffic.

Movistar's connection works with 3 VLANS:
- VLAN 6 for Internet connection (with PPPoE) -> Working ✅
- VLAN 3 for VoIP -> I don't use it
- VLAN 2 for IPTV (static IP with one different IP for each user) -> ❗️ Not working

There are 3 groups of features that the TV service has:
- Live TV (some channes are protected with DRM) and the menu -> this data comes from the IPTV VLAN -> working ✅
- Apps like Netflix, Disney+ or DAZN, and other menus that require access to the WAN VLAN -> working ✅
- VOD and timeshift (this is RSTP traffic) -> not working ❗️

The only thing that remains is to handle that RTSP traffic. The rest is done.

I have been doing my research on the Internet but I don't find any information until I found this PR on the OPNSense's GitHub repo (https://github.com/opnsense/plugins/pull/1312). Seeing this I understand that OPNSense does not have an option to handle RTSP traffic "out of the box" and has to be manually configured. If someone could help me to configure my OPNSense instance to handle that RTSP traffic it would be highly appreciated.

Thanks.
