Same behavior here. No Live-TV playback with HDPVR2 on build 4.0.4 (170731). A SKIPREV will get playback going but the timeline is frozen with negative seconds showing. Playing Live-TV remotely with sub's kodi addon works normally.
how's it goin on this? still black screen till skip back, and no in-progress ability either way. livetv ok after skip.
i also still have problems with getting it to turn on analog inputs on my hdpvr 1212...
it seems like it has wrong settings for current filter. [should be no more driver updates for these]
i get single channel analog on left channel instead of analog, but changing to spdif channel is ok..
i have graph and pins of working graph w these final filters if needed..or remote ability..
pBS, somewhat related question--what settings do you use under Devices for your HD-PVR2? I've always had to use "Restart on Live TV Channel Change" on all versions to get live tv working, but have no clue if that's just me or everyone. (I tried fiddling with that and the "wait longer" options for this issue but it didn't fix it)
