Is this normal? (newest XBMC plugin)

[gman3042]

Hi all.. every once in a while i will get random 2-3s stops of audio/video and then it will pick back up. i was wondering why it was doing this.. and then saw about a bagillion of these in my logs..

any idea why i keep getting this?

Those messages are normal, and dont indicate a problem. A non-blocking socket is used for streaming audio/video data from NextPVR to XBMC, and those messages are just saying that some reads didn't get any data, and had to retry one or more times before it found data was waiting. Personally I wouldn't have logged it, but the socket class was reused from another pvr addon, and was already logging this info.

How often are you getting these 2-3 second delays? Are these SD or HD channels, or either?

Windows or Linux?

I am getting them every second, on Windows.

Which dated version of XBMC Frodo build are you running? I had a similar issue when I first started testing the NPVR add-on, but the problem disappeared after I installed the Sept 25th version of XBMC.

Be wary though, I think the 28th on has/had an issue with reading 'illegal' memory addresses and live TV would halt and I would have to ctrl-alt-del and kill XBMC.

My linux build from 29th is flooding the debug log with these

ERROR: AddOnLog: NextPVR PVR Client: Socket::receive: (errno=11) EAGAIN: The socket is marked non-blocking and the requested operation would block

unfortunatly on linux I don't have the luxury of selecting a special build date.

See if these updates help. Again, replace the files and rebuild. If it doesn't help, can you post the xbmc.log?

[KRA]

does not build:

src/Socket.cpp: In member function âint NextPVR::Socket::receive(char*, unsigned int, unsigned int) constâ:
src/Socket.cpp:443:76: error: âWSAEWOULDBLOCKâ was not declared in this scope
src/Socket.cpp: At global scope:
src/Socket.cpp:458:5: warning: unused parameter âminpacketsizeâ [-Wunused-parameter]
make: *** [Socket.lo] Error 1

[sub]

Sorry - here is an updated one that fixes that Linux compile error.

[KRA]

Log still getting flooded, log attached.

Are you sure you're running those latest patches? It doesn't look like it. As well as some changes to the buffering, I explicitly told it not to log EAGAIN messages, which your logs still show.
