Big Problem within PVR-AddOn since Version 19990

Hello,

I use the PVR-Addon ServerWMC, but since Version 19990 I have had a big Problem.

From begin to read the EPG-Data --> all menues (remote-actions) are very slow.
I can see in the log-file, that the client is ever and ever pooling to server.

Why? I dont now.

At first I thought it is a problem in PVR-AddOn. But if I use the DVBLogic-Addon, I see the same error/problem.
So I guess it is a play problem between Kodi and PVR.

You can find all following information and actually Log-Files in : http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=...pid1903424

Can you help me please.

Good, needs to be reported against PR5804.

Edit: Looks like popcornmix has already done so (thanks)

Not really, no. According to the developer it looks like this might be an upstream issue, either OpenELEC or, IMHO more likely, Kodi (where is this GetTimers command implemented?). You need to report the problem upstream, to the relevant developers, although obviously in the case of OpenELEC you may need to wait until their master is synced.

any fix for this?

[Milhouse]

Precisely which build? Build #0125 is on the FTP server, but I've not yet published the release notes - this has an API bump which could be the cause, I don't see how it could be #0124.

If it is build #0125 you are using, then you probably need to report this error upstream on github.

Edit: My guess right now is that the PVR API version has not been bumped when it should have.

[f1vefour]

Is there a reason the kernel doesn't contain the /proc/config.gz configuration?

[Milhouse]

Because it's not enabled. The config is available on github, or view the patches and config by opening the tar of one of my builds. If you feel you need /proc/config.gz, submit a pull request upstream.

[menakite]

I believe it's built as a module and needs "modprobe configs".

[Milhouse]

Nice, that works - thanks. I checked if we had CONFIG_IKONFIG_PROC enabled, but it's not defined at all.

Edit: It's CONFIG_IKCONFIG* - bah.

[Milhouse]

while using latest test build i get the error

Should be fixed in the next build.

[slack3r]

Good, needs to be reported against PR5804.

Edit: Looks like popcornmix has already done so (thanks)

Thanks.

I also thank you too, popcornmix.

I will stay with #0124b - until the end of vacation ^_^

[sebastien4]

Using latest stable, no thumbs are being extracted (NFS shared folders).
Checkbox is enabled but <enablethumb> setting remains set to false.
I can't see any mention of ffmpeg in logs :/

Any idea? It was working perfectly using 4.2.1.

Thank you.
