Win PVR Client Keeps disabling itself.
#1
I am having issues on several of my client computers around the house were the pvr addon is disabling itself in XBMC. Is anyone else having this problem? Client computers are nothing fancy just intel based Win7 ultimate with XBMC 12.2.

Yes. I'm seeing this too. Only since I've updated from the old way of manually installing PVR.WMC to using the new "TheImmortal" repository. It seems to be happening when my computer notices the TV is disconnected/shut off. Not sure how that can be related...

So it is happening when the server is going to sleep? Does the xbmc log give a reason for the disabling of the addon?

No, I just meant when my TV turns off, the computer registers the HDMI device detaching from the system. My PC stays on all the time.

Anyway, I don't think that's related at all.

I looked in my log and I noticed this:

I woke up this morning and looked at XBMC at around 9:50am and saw the message that the addon had been disabled. Maybe it could have been from the error at 3:08am?

I didn't have log verbosity turned up so there were probably messages it missed. I'm pretty new to XBMC troubleshooting.

This has happened to me a few times as well since changing to the repository. Although I'm not sure if it has to do with the repository or just coincidence. In my case I don't think it has to do with HDMI, as I was just browsing around the EPG when it happened. So far it's only happened on Windows, not on my Raspi (also running on repository now). I'll make sure to capture the log next time.

I have noticed the same behavior but haven't mentioned it because I have been screwing with stuff so much lately that I just figured it was me. This is exclusively on my Windows 7 box. I'll keep a closer eye on it now and pull some logs the next time it happens as well as the circumstances surrounding the event.
The XBMC team, plug-in devs, skinners, etc. do this for us for FREE in their spare time because they want to. Think about that for a second before you start bitching...

I can also see the Curl-related error (at the 03:08 timestamp in the log posted above) from yesterday's log file on my Windows machine. I don't know for sure, but I think it corresponds with roughly the same time that I noticed this behavior (add-on disabled). I wonder if the googledrive account became unreachable for some reason.

I am thinking it is related to auto-updates and the repo, but I am just guessing. We theImmortal to take a look at it.

Yeah, I was able to reproduce this once just now by setting up a firewall rule and blocking port 443 (required for the googledrive HTTPS URL) and then forcing a repository refresh. I got the PVR disable error message on the screen, and the same error messages in the log. However, I was not able to reproduce it again. I don't know if there's a cache that needs to expire or something. I'll turn on debug logging for a while with the port blocked to see if I can capture it again.

Great idea for an experiment. So it seems like the repo must be going down.

I am only a shelf taught computer hobbyist (learned most of my stuff through google). But I don't think it has anything to do with TV turning off because let me elaborate:
My setup:
Server is whs 2011 with ceton card infintv 4 (Charter is provider) installed running a virtual machine loaded with Win7 ultimate that has all the tuners assigned to the virtual machines WMC and the ServerWMC is running on the virtual machine so that i can use "tuner pooling" instead of having to assign tuners to the client htpc's. Also run eventghost on whs 2011 to "automate" things. But server is working fine right now so no problem here.

1st client htpc is living room which is i52500k with 5770 amd card. This client computer turns on and off by the Pioneer 1021 receiver sending udp broadcasts to eventghost (eventghost knows when receiver is on and off so in turns tells client to wake or sleep). TV ALWAYS turns off after receiver and computer turns off.

2nd client is bedroom with i3 2120 and 5570 amd card. This client turns on and off by harmony remote and tv turns off after computer.

Both client computers run XBMCLauncher so i can shell XBMC easier. I am not real good at diagnosing things if someone can point me in the right direction I will be more than glad to help at diagnosing this. Wife acceptance factor is going way south and have too much money in this setup so i really dont want to go back Charter's pvr's. Also has only happened when i was at work and wife was coming home to watch TV and called me cussing so I will have to make sure next time I am at home. By the way thank you krusty and all who worked on this so that i could get rid of WMC somewhat and keep mostly everything contained in XBMC. My hat is off to you!

EDIT: Is there anyway to force it to stay enabled till the time being that this might be resolved?

I've never had this issue and I've also never used the repo. I tried the repo the other day, but it wouldn't connect or something like that, so I just updated by way of zip file.

I can't say with certainty, but I think there is a good chance that this issue will not occur if you uninstall the add-in then uninstall immortal's repository, and then re-install manually by downloading the zip file and choosing "install from zip". Somehow this seems connected to the repository.
