Tuners stop working

[aTF6i]

Hi

My tuners appears to keep getting stuck on a docker setup, usually a week or two after a server restart

I have noticed that it appears that I get these messages on the log:

2022-03-07 10:12:36:194 [DEBUG] Received 7987983324 bytes from device so far

Even when nobody is tuned in to anything


Here is an example of the log, attempting to tune, once broken. I have also attached the full log

Do you have keep tuners primed set? I am not sure how it works, but I turn it off because it does stream data continuously from an HDHR.

Also what is your slip seconds setting? It seems low

My slip is only 1 minute, as I am using a ramdisk; and I'm RAM limited. Could this be an issue?

The button for keep tuners primed is not ticked, however; is there a setting file where it could be different for each tuner?

[mvallevand]

Users have had troubles with ramdisks yes. I can't explain what is preventing NextPVR from properly stopping the device when requested, so I was thinking the fast switching was causing some conflict. This is for sub.

You'd need to post a complete set of logs, so we could see what the server is doing at the time.

The zip file is missing.

If the attachment is too big, you might need to put it somewhere like onedrive / googledrive, and let us know the download link.

[mvallevand]

Not for me, sorry. One Drive Google Drive etc.

Martin

[aTF6i]

Sorry, don't use either

[mvallevand]

You need to find one if your zip or 7z file is larger than 2MB
