Of the 120+ channels I have, only one channel refuses to play using ServerWMC and PVRWMC. I used to be able to play this channel successfully, but I think I stopped being able to play it after upgrading to Kodi 15. My tuner card (Ceton) and ServerWMC has not changed for a long time.

Below is the ServerWMC log that shows the exception when trying to view this channel (#1028).

Thoughts?

It looks like all audio tracks are thought to be hearing impaired and ServerWMC removes them in the remux and then potentially has an unhandled error due to no audio streams being present

Can you disable the option to remove hearing impaired audio streams and see if it makes a difference?

Please post a new full log on pastebin rather than a partial log, so we can see your config settings and other context

kirkvanslyke · 2015-09-16, 05:04

OK, you are right, it looks like it thinks all audio tracks are hearing impaired. I turned the option on to remux hearing impaired audio, but got the same error.

Full log is here.

scarecrow420 · 2015-09-16, 09:51

Ah I guessed that the "dictionary doesn't contain key" might have been because no audio streams existed after they were stripped out but that obviously wasn't the source of that error

Are you able to make a few minute duration recording of this channel and upload the wtv file for us? There is a google drive link krusty has posted before, otherwise any other file sharing site you have...

krustyreturns · 2015-09-16, 16:57

You can upload the short clip to here:
https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0...sp=sharing

let us know when its there.

kirkvanslyke · 2015-09-16, 16:59

Yes, I can make the recording and upload tonight. Do you want me to leave the audio settings as they currently are?

krustyreturns · 2015-09-16, 17:04

We just need to the wtv file, not the ts file, so your audio settings will have no effect. Just record a two minute clip on this channel using either kodi or wmc and give us the resulting wtv.

kirkvanslyke · 2015-09-17, 05:28

I have uploaded the two minute video clip under a folder with my name. I recorded this via Kodi. You will see that the channel recorded successfully. However, the audio is slightly out of sync (at least it was when I played back the recording in Kodi).

Let me know if you need anything else.

Thanks!

krustyreturns · 2015-09-17, 18:12

We got the video, thanks. I'll let you know what we find something.

krustyreturns · 2015-09-17, 21:54

Download the lastest pre-release (1213) and see if it fixes the problem (for now, make sure you are still NOT filtering out 'hearing impaired' from your settings).

kirkvanslyke · 2015-09-17, 22:15

will do. thanks!

kirkvanslyke · 2015-09-18, 06:13

Score! The new build fixed the issue. I can view the channel now.

Thanks!
