the same problem overhere with the latest build from xbmc freak

I love your addon very much mate !

The socket branch is not ready yet, so I'm not surprised that it crashes
Also this is basically a try to dump the CURL dependancy, not really an update to the latest API changes in frodo. Right now the current master branch is compatible with eden only - I will look into frodo once I finshed the work on the socket branch...Unfortunately I'm quite busy at the moment so I cannot spend as much time on coding as I really would want to. But rest assured that I have not abandoned this addon!

@jdembski
Thats really a bummer for me,
the xbmcfreak build works the best with my amd fusion mainboard (ASUS E35M1-I DELUXE) everything works flawless and works out of the box .
My VU+Duo is now a network tuner and not connected to a screen so i have to wait for your update or downgrade to eden for watching sat- tv
Again thanx for all your work you put in this plug-in !!

I mentioned a problem with my Dreambox 800se some on the previous page. The problem is found and it seems to be a bug in stream handling of this plugin.
The affected channels, that did not run, had an alternative channel set in the Dreambox channel menu. When streaming with VLC everything works fine nevertheless, but I did notice the given stream address changed in VLC with an alternative present.
When deactivating all alternatives in the Dreambox the VU plugin streamed this channels OK now. Perhaps this is something you like to review.

is this addon still being worked on? its by far my fav, is it compatible with the latest pvr build? need to know before i update
RE: [WIP] PVR Client Addon for XBMC for EPG and full control of Dreambox and DBox2 - haifischjunge - 2012-08-09
its well supported, but not yet up to date with the last pvr api change. ppl get used to wait a bit or use the time you spend on making requests to learn to code.

I tried your addon and I'm pleased with it.
However if I want to play/restream channels from the portuguese provider zon, I cannot use xbmc because zon uses "shared PMT"
Because of shared PMT some players cannot play zon channels. For example VLC will play them only with a special playlist with metadata in it:
the metadata looks like this:
#EXTM3U
#EXTVLCOPT--http-reconnect=true
#EXTVLCOPT:program=947
http://192.168.1.92:8001/1:0:1:3B3:2F:36:CE40000:0:0:0:
where the 3rd line is essential and where 947 is the decimal equivalent to the hexadecimal 3B3 number
this infomation was recently included in the m3u created by the later versions of openwebif (after May 2012 I believe) in order for VLC to play "shared PMT" streams which are used by some european providers (not only by zon).
Unfortunately #EXTVLCOPT:program=947 is ignored by XBMC and the stream cannot be played.
mplayer plays it only loading http://192.168.1.92:8001/1:0:1:3B3:2F:36:CE40000:0:0:0:
I know this is a problem in XBMC and not in your addon but maybe you have a solution for this.
dreamstream e2 also plays zon without any problem...

Is xbmc playing it when the "mplayer" URL is being used? Can you turn on debug logging and check what URL is being opened when you try it with the addon?
Did you try it with the m3u file? Because right now the addon does not use the m3u-file for getting the stream info but builds the url string itself (to speed up channel switching).
RE: [WIP] PVR Client Addon for XBMC for EPG and full control of Dreambox and DBox2 - johnnypeste - 2012-08-10
when i open the m3u with mplayer, xbmc is off.
i opened the m3u (without the addon), just dragging the m3u file inside xbmc. It doesn't play, so it is not a addon problem.
If I record the stream with dreamstream e2 I get a ts file which is not playable with vlc nor xbmc. "Media player classic" and mplayer plays it with no problem.
When I use "ts doctor" on the recorded ts file it creates a "fixed" file which is playable by all players (including XBMC), because (I believe) "ts doctor" filters only a PMT.
the log from "ts doctor" is too big to fit in this reply. How can i send attachments? (i didn't turn on debug logging in xbmc yet, but if you need I can do it. Just tell me if you want debug on the m3u, the "bad ts" or the "fixed ts")

another simpler problem, while you think in this one... :-)
I have a lot of channels and it takes a lot of time to load all the channels and epg data each time i start live tv.
I have to wait at least 10 minutes to be able to play a channel, because it seems that the channel list is build each time I run xbmc.
I've tried in the "channel options" not to update chennels, but without sucess...

Did you set the path for storing the channeldata?
RE: [WIP] PVR Client Addon for XBMC for EPG and full control of Dreambox and DBox2 - johnnypeste - 2012-08-10
no...
so it is not storing...
lol. I will find it and try..
meanwhile do you have any clues about the problem of shared pmt channels?
I want to restream/transcode those streams to the internet and i don't have enough upload speed (i have adsl so i'm stuck to 1 Mb/s).
XBMC does restream/transcoding? Sorry for the questions. I'm just starting with this program and it seems complex...

jdembski come back to us, this addon is a godsend
RE: [WIP] PVR Client Addon for XBMC for EPG and full control of Dreambox and DBox2 - ibramadhan - 2012-08-20
Is there no possible way to get this compatible with xbmc master + pvr? Would be really awesome cuz the only thing I'm lacking is bitstreaming hd audio. Anything anyone could do to help, donations or whatever I'm sure we would be more than happy.
