hi there,
i've been testing pvr functionality from compiling the current odk git using vdr-vnsi as client/backend. i'm wondering whats the supposed behaviour of livetv when switching to a channel that is not available, may it be due to no signal or channels which can't be decrypted? i remember when i was using pvr-testing2 branches some months ago a dialog popped up saying the channel was not available and xbmc then fell back to the latest available channel. right now xbmc will just freeze whenever i switch to an unavailable channel. the log shows the failed channel switch and then shows an infinite repeat of this:
i suppose thats a bug, but aside from that i'd like to know if there are plans to deal with unavailable channels like VDR or even most receivers do, like showing an info that this channel was not available/has no signal but it will still remain the current channel with a black picture or so.
thanks and keep up the great work!
