Channel receiving data forever

[VCR58]

A day ago I recorded a movie and decided to watch it today. When I started the movie I saw a black screen that said "Test Signal On". Very strange. When I watched that channel live with Kodi I saw the same thing "Test Signal On". So, I guess that channel is morphing into different programming or something.

However, when I tuned to this channel in the web app the message at the bottom said "Receiving Data" and the counter continued to increment and never stopped. I don't know if it would time out eventually or not. It was still incrementing the counter after several minutes. I also tried playing the recorded movie in the web browser but it eventually timed out and gave an error.  The logs should show the channel playing in Kodi first (I think) and then in the web browser. 


P.S. I do not like this drag and drop method for attaching log files... just saying

I click the drag drop area with a mouse and a traditional file open dialog opens.

That sounds like a still frame video so without audio it could take a long time to buffer

Thanks for the tip. I'll try that next time.

That's what it is but it I don't think it will ever time out. When the channel comes back though, it won't be an issue.

Correction, the channel playing in the web browser is first then with Kodi. I let it go for about 2 min before stopping it.

I am not seeing any error, the web browser has a fixed buffer size for video and it was still not full.

I do see an error Parsing "Black Hawk Down". Was that an import?

Ok. I'll let it run longer and see if anything happens.

I was importing all my recordings from windows to linux and that one I lost all the meta data. The movie plays ok so not a big deal.
