(This post was last modified: 2014-05-23, 12:06 by jobe.)
I have upgraded my installation to Gotham final and vnsi server from the new repository (fernetmenta) as well as pvr tools from opdenkamp.
I guess this should be the official repositories.
Everything seems to work fine, except that fetching the channel lists takes very long (about 2 mins.), but it was very fast in beta versions (a few seconds, I took the complete set from Fernetmentas repository).
Anyone else experiencing this problem?
Should I try another version of vnis client/server?
Any hints/keywords I should check in the logs (I already tried to find something in the logs, but had no luck)?
Many things,
Jobe

Make sure that you don't store egp in database. This slows down the process drastically. vdr has its own db for epg.

Thanks for your answer, but I am definitely not storing epg in xbmc database. Fetching epg is fine, but fetching the channel list takes very long since gotham final. Note: I use channel groups in vdr and have set the flag to synchronize channel groups in xbmc.
I did not have time to try a lot of things the past weeks, but I will have a look at the logs within the next days, maybe I can at least narrow things down.

vdr seems to hang at the time the issue occurred
Jun 19 10:01:10 [ntpd] peer 86.59.13.46 now valid
Jun 19 10:01:19 [dbus] [system] Failed to activate service 'org.freedesktop.Avahi': timed out
Jun 19 10:01:54 [G2V g2v_init.sh] VDR does not respond - Restarting
can you enable verbose logging for vdr? maybe we can get more info.

How can you enable verbose logging in vdr? I've searched for a while but couldnt find it. I also have an vdr issue i cannot solve without good logs.

I get status and error logs (e.g. vnsi packet loss or which plugin is loaded), but nothing when the system locks up. I will look again in a few days, since i dont have physical access to my server right now.
