NPVR stops streaming and needs restarting

[gdogg371]

UPDATE:

Below is a link to all the log files for the new NPVR install. To expand my test conditions I did the following:

1) Tried again watching channels whilst the EPG sync was in progress. Streams would either not play, or crash after a few seconds.
2) Waited for EPG load update to finish on Kodi install local to my NPVR machine.
3) Streams would now play very well.
4) Left a channel playing on Kodi instance A and then went and opened another Kodi instance on machine B and let the EPG update do it's thing.
5) After this streams went back to crashing again, so suspect the issue is on the NPVR side.

Thanks

I'll post my reply from the Kodi forum here too, hopefully the double posting will stop now

I asked you to post on the Kodi sub forum on the NextPVR forum not on the Kodi forum, and yet you also followed up with more information on the NextPVR forum. This is absolutely the last double post from you that I respond to.

There are two issues really first you need to prune your list as I suggested on the NextPVR forum, 9000 channels is ridiculous.

The other issue I see is that you have far too many channel with no guide data that are mapped to an XMLTV source and not None. The addon has a mechanism to not request backend data when it knows the backend has no data.

The setting you want in advancedsettings.xml is this one <updateemptytagsinterval> Basically you have so many channels it will loop asking for data that is not there.
