Trouble playing Comcast Music Choice Channels
#1
When I try and tune to one of the Comcast music channels (they include video with song name and adds), it takes a long time to tune and then buffers/skips constantly. I have the ts and wtv file and they play fine in Kodi after the live tv is stopped. I have uploaded the files to your google drive. Let me know if you need anything else.

ServerWMC Log: http://pastebin.com/X75pBJgW (The log is pretty long, jump to the times listed below.

Live TV when in forced radio mode: 21_57_53
Live TV when not in forced radio mode: 22_05_32

Again, these play fine in Kodi after recording completed but are constantly skipping/buffering when in live mode.

I did notice a similar issue IanPH had at http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=213985 where it would clear up after 2 minutes. I've tried leaving it for over 3 minutes and it doesn't go away.

Thanks

Yeah, I remember that too. At least when you told it to ignore the video the stream started faster. Anyway, I will see if I can reproduce it.

Is there anything new on this?
I have found the same problem.
I have used the WMC client and the MeidaPortal client, both show the same buffering problem.

WMC and MediaPortal themselves both play these channels properly.

The Silicon Dust HDHR plugin also plays these channels from within Kodi properly.

The Music Choice channels from Comcast are only having playback issues with Kodi itself, it seems.

No, nothing new. Very interesting that MP has the same problem, thanks for that info. sbthomas and I both suspect the problem is with kodi also.
