RE: [WIP] PVR Client Addon for XBMC for EPG and full control of Dreambox and DBox2 - jdembski - 2014-01-22

Sorry, I have no knowledge about how XBMC decodes this stuff. For me it looks like it cannot detect a proper audio stream when you opened the channel for the first time - but why? No clue.

I'm currently building an OpenELEC version with the previously mentioned add-on update. Within the update there is also a simple implementation of timeshift, which also changes the way the content is being accessed. Although channel switching is slower with it, maybe this will fix your problems. The time shift is optional, so everyone who cannot live with the increased channelswitching times can disable it.

One question about this timeshift.

On my normal cable decoder timeshift always records a max of 30 minutes, So if I watch TV for 1 hour I can always go back 30 minutes,
When I change chanel this recorded 30 minutes are gone. Works great.

On my VU you can also use Timeshift but instead of recording only 30 minutes, it records the all time. So if you watch 2 hours it records 2 hours.
And if you change channel the recording stay on my HDD.

Wonder how timeshift will work in XBMC. Hopefully same as my normal cable decoder does. Also wonder where recordings are made, on the VU HDD or the one in your HTPC

I just found out that the timeshift feature does not really work very well in day to day situations - I have closed the pull request for now.

@seninha:
It should work as this: If you switch to a channel, then it will also create a buffer file on your htpc, which is used as the time shift buffer. If you switch the channel, then you will also loose the buffer.

Great, thats the same way my Humax Cable decoders works.
And do you now how long this buffer is? Because my system as a 30gb SSD

I use the Hudo build from post 1014 on my RPI with openelec.
EPG loading time is realy fast in the Hudo build, what did you change to get it that fast?

The HD channels works fine but some times they show some stuttering or blocks, look like a video memory problem?
Is it possible to change the resolution to 720 instead of the 1080? TV is HD-Ready so only 720 needed. SD works great.

**edit** Stuttering comes from a missing I-Frame and only with a rpi.

@jdembski

here is the bug which I described in other forum
http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=185790&pid=1623720#pid1623720

according of opendekamp

Quote:i suspect that this is a problem with the add-on not returning from a call when there's no (valid) data coming in. contact the add-on author about this.

have a look please on that issue

thanks

@jdembski Have you totally shelved the pause/timeshift idea?
I'd love to get my hands on any code you've done just to play around with - there is a permanent timeshift plugin running on my Enigma2 box and an unlimited pause buffer.
Can you point me towards your experimental code please?

Please help. I am having problems streaming live TV on my vu+ addon. I can watch recorded shows but not live channels.
Web interface is 1980: streaming interface is 8001.
I have tried resetting data
I am using a Vu+ solo2 and a intel i5 pc with openelec 3.2.4
Here is my log

please check your settings - you have set the streaming port to 8002:

Code:
AddOnLog: VU+ / Enigma2 Client: Open - StreamPort: '8002'

Okay fixed that still no joy

RE: [WIP] PVR Client Addon for XBMC for EPG and full control of Dreambox and DBox2 - jdembski - 2014-02-18

OK - now that you set the streaming port, the VU+ web interface cannot be reached anymore. Did you change the VU+ IP address or something like that?

Are you sure that you are able to open this URL from your openelec box?

http://192.168.0.11:1980/web/deviceinfo

XBMC was able to open this URL before (in your previous log), so there must be something wrong with your VU+ box / your network. Or did you maybe enable https on your box?


RE: [WIP] PVR Client Addon for XBMC for EPG and full control of Dreambox and DBox2 - karl_everest - 2014-02-18

Nope checked https is not enabled. I can access box for recordings and everything works fine on PC and tablets I just loaded a recording see log. Thankyou for all your help

Please remove your "channeldata.xml" file - I think there may be incorrect stream-urls present in this file. I will remove this in the next version so that this won't happen again.

Hi joerg. Thanks I'll give that a go tonight
Is the code below with the wrong port a part of the XML then?
Thanks karl
