TVheadend 100% signal, XBMC: "no input detected"

I think it's a tvheadend issue... I upgraded tvheadend, and the "no input detected" issue surfaced. It works on the first channel switch after tvheadend starts, but any switch after that dies.

Commit 8191e132f83f8078d13f5e9c049c99bafb5264a7 works fine!

I think we can allow the TV to take a break, then restart may be the integrated version overheating caused.

This relates to my post #20.

After I installed flash player and deactivated Chrome's internal flash player, TV in XBMC works fine in the computer with Hauppauge PCTV Nanostick T2HD.

I installed flash player with the command
sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer gsfonts-x11

Sorry to bring this up again. Is there any further work on this issue? For me it happens on selecting or changing a channel (tbs6981). If I leave it long enough, eventually the channels starts playing (maybe after seeing the no input detected alert 10-12 times). If I restart TVheadend, the channel will play instantly.

For reference, if I view the status page in the backend, it says 'testing' followed by 'bad'. All of the channels (BBC 1, BBC HD etc) have good signal. I never had this issue with mediaportal (both as front and backend).

this is not an issue of xbmc or the tvheadend add-on, but tvheadend itself, so it's not likely that anyone here will do something with this report

actually, if you have a look on the TVH website, adamsutton is the project manager and maintainer, so posting here and debugging with Adam is probably very likely to get something done as this is a real-world situation where TVH is failing to live up to expectations.

And FWIW - I too am also suffering the same fate. I am using TVH 3.2.18 coupled with Frodo RC2 and Ubuntu 12.04LTS (Precise), but with a Phillips saa7134 Tiger Reference (card=81 tuner=84 in module options). XBMC and TVH worked flawlessly all day yesterday while watching the cricket, but had to reboot the computer last night, and TVH is no longer recognising the signal.

I can say that the fault is not with XBMC, however. If it is firmware, it has to be something that is common to all the cards listed in this thread, so I think it is more and more likely that it is something in TVH. Although i haven't tried exiting Chrome and waiting, i will soon and report back in a day or so. This does seem to be a common occurrence for me, that after a reboot live TV doesn't work for a day or so, then just magically starts working. I've heard of cold starts taking a while, but that is just ridiculous...

@thespud - I have to agree with Lars on this one. This is not a problem with XBMC or pvr.hts, its far more likely its a problem with either TVH itself or the firmware/hardware. The reason he suggested this is not the correct place to post such issues is this is for XBMC integration problems, not TVH specific problems.

The later should be reported in the TVH (lonelycoder.com) forums or issue tracker.

fair enough.. Good point
