Raspbmc not playing Live TV from nPVR

tgp · 2013-03-09, 11:32 PM

Using a HDHomeRun as Tuner and Win7 pc as nPVR server. Tuner selection works fine using the UI for nPVR on server, and the HDHomeRun tuner app. But driving thru Raspbmc LiveTV selection - lots of waiting and eventually a refresh of the channels screen. Logs attached, could not quite figure out what might be wrong by looking at these myself.

btw, sometimes (maybe 1 out of 4 times) the tuner selection works fine and LiveTV rewards me with an actual screen playback. I am using Sub's app.

thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

Can you restart the recording service, reproduce the problem, then post the xbmc.log (with debug logging enabled), nrecord.log and web.log?

Here are the logs after restarting the recording service.

1. Tried running NPVR Live TV on the server, but no playback
2. restarted the live TV and ok this 2nd time
3. started the live TV on xbmc, screen shows ok
4. stop/restarted the live TV on xbmc, waiting, waiting

the server live tv is on tuner 0
xmbc live tv is on tuner 1, this time no tuner assignment

copied the xmbc log from the pi, then zip'd up everthing, attached.

Can you turn on debug logging in XBMC, and repeat, and repost logs?

I have a reboot/repeat problem on the PI right now, submitted a separate thread since it appears to be related to the add-on.

Hi TGP...

I had the same problem....fixed it by updating the EPG. See your new thread for details.

I still don't get live TV. Will try to get some logs today.

Thanks
