pvr-testing - switching channels, playback freezing
#1
Hi

Please help me finding solution for those 2 points:
  1. XBMC on LiveTV does not switch channel on VDR. VDR working correctly - tunes every channel on the list while it is used standalone (xineliboutput with vdpau). Sometimes I can switch to next channel on the same transponder. Here you can find debug log: http://www.4shared.com/file/185914351/df...ivetv.html
    Actions I did:
    - tried to switch to channel different then VDR is tuned to
    - and finaly the same one and video was started.
  2. XBMC freezes just starting playback of any video file. This issue sound strange - I cannot open any video file. XBMC freezes or just frontend is not respoding (system itself is working). Seeing debug log : http://www.4shared.com/file/185916219/1e...yback.html I suppose the info windows is to be displayed but it is not visible. I was tried to use both PM3-HD skin and Confluence but there were no difference. There are a few video files mentioned in the log but no one I was able to watch. Strage thing is that recognized VDR Recordings play very well !!!

XBMC and VDR (with plugins) was installed from PPA mentioned here: http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=62696.

There is a list of xbmc packages (dpkg -l \*xbmc\* )

Sorry I can't help since I know nothing about VDR and XBMC; but here are some suggestions if you wish to get the problem resolved.

1) post your debug log from XBMC when this problem occurs
2) raise a ticket on TRAC. There is a category for PVR that you can use to make sure the right people will notice it.

Hope one of these helps get you an answer.
