Hello,

This thread follows the previous one: http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=288752. I took a step. But I still can not watch TV. The configuration is always the same. As a reminder, it is:

SERVER
* Windows 7
* Media portal 1.15.0

CLIENT 1
* Windows 10
* Kodi 16.1 (Apr 24 2016)
* MediaPortal PVRClient 1.13.6

CLIENT 2
* Raspberry PI 3
* Rasbian jessie (kernel linux 4.4.13-v7+)
* Kodi 16.1 (Apr 24 2016)
* MediaPortal PVRClient 1.12.0

On client 1, everything is OK, I can see the TV on Kodi.
Contrary to my first post, the list of channels is synchronized with the TV Server and the EPG is OK. But I can not see any channel.

I try all parameters but without success. Here is a list of all parameters with the associated errors observed in log file.

1 - With ffmpeg, I see nothing and i've got this kind of error in log file "ERROR: OpenDemuxStream - Error creating demuxer"

As reminder, everything is OK on Kodi installed on client 1 (Windows using parameter ffmpeg).

Which parameter is expected to be operationnal on Raspberry?
Do you know what is the problem and how to solve it?

Thanks in advance,

Laurent
Add your recording folder as a video source and try to play something. If you have the same problem, then it's purely RasPi related and you should post in the proper forum section.
Ok I will try this tonight. Thanks for your first advice.
Sorry for the delay but I have no time to test pĆ¼nktchen advice sooner.
With CLIENT 2, I have the same problem to play a recorded TV video by directly accessing the share folder.

I finally try again directly OSMC on Raspberry3 (rasbian + kodi was just a step). And everything is OK on OSMC. SO my problem is fixed. But I not really understand the configuration difference between OSMC and Rasbian+Kodi.
