RE: Eden PVR builds - sl4m - 2012-06-06 00:54
I installed your pvr eden build with media portal tv server today.
first of all, thank you for your great work
unfortunatelly a few thing wont work for me right now.
switching tv channels always causes a xbmc crash, i have to stop one tv channel in order to switch to the new one to avoid an xbmc crash. is this normal or just a bug on my side?
it seems like xbmc is automaticly doing a timeshift record while watching a tv channel. can i disable the timeshift somewhere? i think it kind of slows down my htpc pretty much :/
can i import the live tv section in my Aeon MQ3 skin or do i have to press "E" every time i want to watch live tv? in confluence skin i do have an extra menu entry for live tv, in Aeon MQ3 i dont.
is EPG working at the moment? where does xbmc get the EPG information from? Media Portal Tv server or internet?
Wuuhh, more questions then i expected ^^
i hope someone could answer a few, would be great
thanks!

I've never used Media Portal for a backend before but it looks to work similar (at least in design) with hts-tvheadend. For myself I use a service called Schedules Direct. From that I gave XMLTV my login credentials and it pulls all the EPG data for me. Tvheadend has a job that runs and gathers new EPG data on its own.
You might start here for MediaPortal: http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/1_MEDIAPORTAL_1/15_Customization/001_TV-Server/Configuration/13_Plugins/WebEPG

As you noticed there is no direct 'Live TV' button on some skins, this will change once PVR becomes a standard feature of XBMC.

Or are you saying that something that is supposed to be on at 0900 doesn't show up for you until 0905 or something?

I am not sure about this one, I haven't seen any crashes switching channels with tvheadend as the backend. I'll set up an install of mediaportal and see what happens there.
technick Wrote:- "Dolby Digital plus" is not correctly managed by the Audio Engine -> no sound on HDMI (work with analog output)
Unfortunately I don't have a way to test this on my own as I only have a receiver that accepts optical audio (no HDMI switching). Once the May cycle for Eden is pushed up in git I'll do another build that will hopefully fix that.
technick Wrote:- Only video software decoding give good results, dxva is unusable, the video stuttering and finish with 1 second infinite loop
Using an Nvidia card here and I didn't notice anything like that. I've tried software rending as well as hardware rendering and they both produce good results. I do notice a slight framerate jitter every now and then if I don't use true fullscreen (not fullscreen in a window) but I've seen this since before Eden.
technick Wrote:- DVB-T work fine but not my IP tv
Strange.. I exclusively use IP streams and haven't seen a single problem. Every now and then I'll see an MPEG-TS stream only have audio but that's only for a few SD channels and I think it's related to tvheadend and not XBMC. Which backend are you using?
Stalkerj Wrote:Hello. Please help me to get build for apple tv 2 fw 5.1.1 with pvr
Thank you in advance
I believe that I can now build XBMC using Lion and the latest Xcode if I read the updates correctly. If that is the case I'd be glad to attempt to build you one. I'll update here once I've tried it.
Also, should we open a new thread for discussion on these builds to keep this one clean?

a popup with "buffering. please wait" appears and nothing happens.
in mediaportal everything works just fine.

I have set up Mediaportal and the xbmc plugin on it. This is my first install of this so there was a slight learning curve, but I'm actually finding it easier because I can just create one m3u file with all of my IP streams and have it scan that.
Anyway, after I got a few working streams I can not make xbmc crash when switching channels. Starting a stream defiantly takes slightly longer than with tvheadend but it also seems to run a bit smoother, less pixelization and whatnot. I might just stick with running this for a bit!
I'd have to second running the Margro builds as they are also very current and seem to contain some specific things for Mediaportal so you're less likely to run in to issues.

@Kazzamozz
I assume me-tv is another backend? then someone needs to write an add-on for it that interfaces with it.
My tvheadend will contain some patches that are not in the standard repos.
Hi I'm New here
will there be a mediaportal PVR client (tsreader) plugin in this build
?Is there a way in windows to update the PVR build to the nightly build of xbmc and still get the PVR options ?? and how to do it ?
I have a win 7 system
Best regards
RE: Eden PVR builds - duncanvdlinden - 2012-06-07 18:59
Is there already an precompiled XBMC 12.0-ALPHA3 PVR build?
Or an earlier version from XBMC 12.0?
At the moment I can only find 11.0 builds, 12.0 has better Blu-Ray support.
For Windows 7 X64.
RE: Eden PVR builds - margro - 2012-06-12 21:22
@duncanvdlinden:
I've just added an initial 12.0 alpha-3 + PVR build to my website. Consider it to be an unstable preview. For stable builds, please use the Eden-pvr builds.
I recommend you to install this build next to Eden for testing purposes only. The AudioEngine part is still under development and you may encounter audio related problems.
The PVR part between the pre-Frodo (12.x) and Eden-pvr builds is 99% identical.

Yes, you might need to refresh this page:
http://www.scintilla.utwente.nl/~marcelg/xbmc/prebuild.html#master
Note that this is a Windows build. I'm not providing Linux PVR builds.

RE: Eden PVR builds - tismon - 2012-06-14 16:27
Hmm, slightly confused. Is the margro XBMC v11.0 Eden PVR v2 the same as the Pulse-Eight PVR 11.5?
