I recently upgraded to 5.1.2.210603
all seemed good then following day channels would not stream
To explain I have a twin DVBT (which behaves as expected) and a quad DVB-S - it is this latter which seems weird
I scan the DVB-T device - channels found - I delete the channels I dont want - I automap to the ATSC epg source - I then open second DVB-T device I copy the set up from the first
ALL works as expected
I try to do same with one of the DVB-s device
- scan for channels
- delete ones I dont want (tedious but ai cant find a fast way of doing this)
- merge duplicate channels (ditto)
- apply schedules direct epg source
-
At this stage everything's fine - I see the channels and they stream
Now I add a second device copying the settings from the first
At first thngs seem ok - then channels stop after a minute or so - soon on cannot open any stream
I thought it might be one of the tuners on my quad dvb-s board was dodgy so Ive tried with different combos of device (a fitst then B copied or d first then c copied etc
but it always produces same result -
last night I scanned (for about the 10th time one device © channels came up, Overnight they disappeared including the epg which was there last night.
I checked server - there was no sign of next server on services, opened and close 'services' several times and next server reappeared - restarted.
Eventually rebooted
the channels restored (but no epg)
I have looked at teh logs but I am not sure what to look for or what they are telling me
Can anyone suggest a cause - its obviously something in my set up but what ? Can tuner cards break down like this
oh also when one looks at the device status after this appears it often shows on device in use with 'null.ts'
