Hello all,
I'm using multiple addons for streaming media services (ARD/ZDF Mediatheken, etc.) in Germany, and sometimes, I have a very strange behaviour:
Usually, the streams (RTMPe) take about 3-4 seconds to start, and all is well - but recently, the streams often don't start anymore, KODI hangs until
the stream times out (>2 minutes). Often, when I try the same stream directly after, it works fine, so I presume it is more of an issue with how streams are handled?
Since this happens with multiple addons I didn't put this in the support thread for any one of them but here - anyone got an idea what happens here?
I'm on Kodi 14RC3 on XBMCBuntu 13 (where the >2minute timeouts happen) and Kodi 14RC3 Windows 7x64, where the links timeout as well, but it takes only ~20 seconds to do so?
Is there a way to set this timeout within Kodi/Linux, to make it more bearable? I also tried updating the librtmp.so.0 on my linux system that was posted in a thread around here somewhere to the newest version (8-30-14)
but it didn't help...
The Kodi Log is not very helpful either, as it only quotes basic stuff stating a timeout....
