Kodi playback issues - Stupid Android TV?

[aTF6i]

Thanks for the help

No VAAPI at the moment - Might be something I look at in the future

I have timeshift turned off

In transcoded mode your aren't really running PVR for playback so maybe someone on the Kodi forum can help you with inputstreamaptive I don't know much about it myself

Also for BBC channels you might be able to use an extra with mpd files here https://github.com/iptv-org/iptv/blob/ma...uk_bbc.m3u Not all work and I can't test geoblocked. Normally I don't support extras but I wrote this one when I was playing a while back

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<extras>
        <channel name="BBC News">
                <command>ffmpeg</command>
                <args>-re -v panic -i "https://vs-cmaf-push-ww-live.akamaized.net/x=4/i=urn:bbc:pips:service:bbc_news_channel_hd/iptv_hd_abr_v1.mpd" -codec copy -f mpegts -</args>
        </channel>
        <channel name="BBC Arabic">
                <command>ffmpeg</command>
                <args>-re -v panic -i "https://vs-cmaf-pushb-ww-live.akamaized.net/x=4/i=urn:bbc:pips:service:bbc_arabic_tv/pc_hd_abr_v2.mpd" -codec copy -f mpegts -</args>
        </channel>
</extras>

I expect your player will handle these streams without transcoding. If you find working ones you can put them in IPTV simple and that would be faster too.

Wow - Didn't know about these - The links certainly work

Which file did you get those config lines from though?

URLs seem to work nicely - Not sure if's much an option without more providers though

Can NextPVR handle these streams like PVR TV? Recordings, EPG etc?

The source link was in my last post. Probably someone sniffed them out from iPlayer which is why I think they would be good with a wide variety of players. General I have found BBC OTA the trickiest with the mixed 1080i and 1080p and audio switching so it could help a little.

Yes NextPVR can uses Extras just like normal tuners. URL's like this are are often not that static but these have been the same for months. There won't be any OTA guide but if you merge them with your OTA I think they will use the same guide data. If your extra tuner is lowest priority I think that it will be used for Live TV from Kodi so you can see if helps but you can't easily transcode and not transcode Live TV.
