New MythTV add-on using libcmyth

dubstar_04 · 2011-10-02 12:03

i've been using this build this morning and i have noticed a few issues:

1. if i watch a channel then stop live tv, then go back to that channel, xbmc hangs.
Log: http://paste.ubuntu.com/700948/

2. if i try to reset the pvr database from the settings menu xbmc closes.
crash log: http://paste.ubuntu.com/700941/

3. The sorting selection in the recordings screen is not remembered following a restart.

4. a few random crashes when exiting live tv (not that often)
crash log: http://paste.ubuntu.com/700943/
log: http://paste.ubuntu.com/700947/

5. Sometimes i cant exit the pvr interface using the 'home' button. this is irregular and difficult to replicate. i will provide more details when i can.

Thanks,

Dubstar_04

Additional information:

if live tv is stopped, watching a recording or any live channel hangs xbmc.

dubstar_04: I've fixed one cause for the lock-ups. Could you please see if it improves anything?

Hirs: You will have to wait until opdenkamp updates his repository as I don't know the PVR code good enough yet to merge from main line yet. If I find the time I could try to apply the patch from bobo1on1 (But I doubt I will, as I will rather use the time to debug my own code).

I have had a quick test this morning and when stopping live tv xbmc just freezes with the last frame left on screen.

not sure if this affects anything:

Code:

cppmyth.cpp: In constructor ‘MythEventHandler::ImpMythEventHandler::ImpMythEventHandler(CStdString, short unsigned int)’:

cppmyth.cpp:113: warning: ‘MythEventHandler::ImpMythEventHandler::m_conn_t’ will be initialized after

cppmyth.cpp:120: warning:   base ‘cThread’

cppmyth.cpp:119: warning:   when initialized here

First of all, thanks for all your work. I did not have time to check the progress with mythtv PVR addon for some time, and now I see that there is a whole new addon developed for it. Smile

Here are some things that I noticed while testing the latest code.

I can confirm that I have the same problem with the latest code.

Quote:3. The sorting selection in the recordings screen is not remembered following a restart.

I can also confirm this one. Also when I set the sorting "Sort by: Date" and start watching and then stop, the sorting has been changed to "Sort by: Name".

I've uploaded a new fix that should prevent the lockup when stopping LiveTV. I will look at the sorting later.

just had a quick test and i can confirm that live can be started, stopped and restarted and channels can be switched with no obvious issues.

I will test further tonight.

Thank you,

The recordings view uses the same order as the video file view. I guess you would prefer to have a separate setting for the recordings and video files?

Yeah I think so. I tend to browse videos by name and tv by recorded date.

Not had chance to do much testing. I've been watching the apple presentation about the next iPhone!

I should of just tested xbmc Smile

Do you have screen shots of mythtv using this new plugin?
