Also, the confirmation dialog defaults to 'No', you have to explicitly select 'Yes' to delete.

I recently noticed than when I run an "apt-get update" on OSMC (Raspbian), I get :
Code:
W: Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/jlbarriere68/ppa/ubuntu/dists/jessie/main/binary-armhf/Packages  404  Not Found

When I tried to poke around I found:
http://janbar.github.io/pvr.mythtv/download/index.html

However, I don't see an updated apt-source to use. I also tried to manually download the addon file from that page, but when I go to install it, the installer complains that it can't resolve a dependency. The notification disappears quickly before it displays the full error, but ideally I'd like to get the addon working again through apt if possible.

Any help would be great.

Thanks!

Poking around a little more, it looks like I'm running Jarvis (OSMS-2016.04-1 and says running Kodi 16.1-RC3), and I don't see a Jarvis download for Raspbian on http://janbar.github.io/pvr.mythtv/download/index.html

I'm a pretty savvy power user/developer with Linux in general, but not with Kodi on the Pi so much. I imagine there's a simpler way to compile/create a version for my Pi running OSMC from an existing source structure somewhere than brute forcing from source trunks. Can anyone point me in the right direction or toward a guide? Or should I just wait because there's an imminent automated option on the horizon (apt source getting updated?)?

Thanks!

OSMC is not Raspbian. OSMC does have Kodi Jarvis. Just uses OSMC builtin updater (My OSMC -> Updater )

The PPA you mention is for Ubuntu (not including armhf variants)

Unfortunately Raspbian Jessie repositories for Raspberry Pi only have Kodi 15.2 (Isengard). If you need the latest pvr.mythtv addon for this version then use the one for RPi from :

http://janbar.github.io/pvr.mythtv/downl...arm-15.zip

Just copy the zip file to .kodi/addons and unzip it, then restart Kodi.

I know the download page states Openelec, but it should work with Raspbian Jessie.

@curvin777, as Mike said you should have kodi 15. But if really you have kodi Jarvis you can use this build for raspbian jessie:

Often if I power on my kodi machine and play a mythtv PVR recording the playback is either completely green or kodi hangs and crashes. If I restart the kodi machine it will then successfully play the recording. Do you know if this is caused by the PVR addon or is a separate issue?

I am using openelec 6.0.3, pvr 2.8.4.

Logfile with green screen:

Any ideas?

Thanks

In a recording Rewind and FastForward works fine. But when using LiveTV Rewind doesn't work. Or it work kind of, you move back in the stream but you get no visual feedback until you press play and start playing in normal speed.
Is it possible to get Rewind to show the frames when rewinding so you know where you are in the stream?

I'm using version 4.3.2 with the daily Milhouse OpenElec builds for a Pi3.

I saw error 113 in the log. That means backend host unreachable. Seems your network has been disconnected or your backend had been stopped.

Would it be possible if action Record is given on an already scheduled recording, like in the EPG, or on a running recording, like in LiveTV, that the recording/schedule is cancelled/deleted?

This is the role of the backend to handle duplicate.
Also for addon side, pressing record button will inform the backend to keep the live recording. No more. No recording is scheduled.

I'm just referring to how it works in MythTV frontend. But maybe it is not possible to have the same functionality in Kodi/pvr.mythtv?

If I press Record on LiveTV in MythTV frontend, the recording will move to the Default group, and be saved, but if I press again it will go back to a LiveTV recording group, and be autodeleted when necessary.

And when in the MythTV frontend EPG you only need one button, the Record button, to schedule a recording (and also change type from single to series recording), or cancel with the same button by pressing several times, and go through the alternatives.

So, I installed this and it appears to be successful. When I go to:
Settings -> Add-ons -> My Add-ons -> PVR clients -> MythTV PVR Client
I see Author: Christian Fetzer, Jean-Luc Barriere
Version: 3.4.12

I configure it appropriately, and enable it. I back out all the way and head into:
Settings -> TV
In "General" I enable "Enabled".

Is there something else I'm supposed to do? When I go to the main screen, I still don't have a "TV" menu option.

To troubleshoot, I fired up the backend and ran 'tail -f' on the mythbackend log. On the Pi, when I go to:
System -> System Info -> PVR Service
The mythbackend log on my backend machine shows my Pi registering as a client and it appears to be successful. However, as mentioned, I don't see the TV menu button (from videos and screenshots I believe it's supposed to be on the left side of Video, right?) even after rebooting.

Any additional thoughts?

Thank you!
