Hi,
My setup of NextPVR 5 under Debian 10 worked quite fine: I could successfully create a device, scan the channels from the SAT>IP source (4 DVB-C tuner implemented in a FRITZ!Box 6490 Cable Router) and could even retrieve the EPG data from the DVB-C stream. But when I try to playback a stream (tried with transcoder streaming profiles default and 720p), I only see the status "Starting Device. Please Wait..." and nothing appears.
This does not to be an issue of the Cable Router, as I can perfectly access the rtsp streams in VLC by downloading an m3u file from the Cable Router and having a direct connection to the Cable Router, without using NextPVR. So when I access the rtsp stream directly, the stream plays back, and when I open the same stream via NextPVR, I can only retrieve EPG data, but no stream for playback.
Therefore, I consulted the log file. After some initial tasks, NextPVR repeats the following steps many, many times before finally giving up. The following log information shows the portion that is repeated all the time while I see "Starting Device. Please Wait..." on the screen:
Unfortunately, my knowledge about NextPVR is not sufficient to identify any failure from the above log information. Similarly, I can also not identify an issue from the log information that preceeds the above repeated information once I click on a particular channel for playback and which is attached to this post in the file nrecord.log.
So I wonder what I could do to identify the source of the problem. I also tried to avoid a transcoding at all, but I do not know as how to enforce/achieve this.
I left the default settings in the transcoding sections at first, with the default streaming profile (which gives the same result) and then (as shown above in the log information) with the 720p streaming profile. According to the default settings in the transcoding settings, transcoding is to be avoided.
Best regards,
Peter
