RaspBMC Kodi/XBMC test builds

Because this is a test build that uses a different media player for audio?

Have just upgaded my RPI to latest Gotham release. I'm using it to watch live TV from a MythTV server.
Strange thing is, I can watch live HD channels, but if I switch to a SD channel, I only get the sound and it seems to be slower at buffering.

Does anyone have a clue to what might be causing this playing of sound with no video, watching SD live TV?

Have you bought an MPEG2 licence? It's possible the HD streams and H.264 and the SD streams are MPEG-2.

Hi
i make a comparison between the last testbuild and raspbmc-dec build:
LOG:/kome/pi/.xbmc/temp/xbmc.log, aktivated over system "onscreen"

CPU-XBMC witg the "MTV.de" stream ...."hey Brother" Song :-)

Dec-raspbmc have about 35% cpu-xbmc, CPU:CPU0 85-90% max.
-> my Logitech k400r works fine

nc3- xslt have mor than 60% and always CPU:CPU0 on full 100%
....that's unmanageable :-(

On the last build that was no Problem on my Raspi. Workes more free flowing.
I'm using a very fast USB Stick for xbmc, SD is only for boot.
But the second Raspi with only SD-Cars display the eqal characteristic.

THX doldi

Angel Sorry about my terrible english.

Do you know if mtv.de use TLS and https?
I did not include this patch in last build, perhaps this can be the problem.
On the other hand, I have seen previously people with high CPU after update where settings and addons might be the problem (?).

Can you provide a debug log?

Edit: I personally don´t see any problems with high CPU on my 2 Pi´s, do you mean that CPU is high all the time or just when you stream from MTV.de?

all the time miappa.
Ive put a fresh image from xbmc and update them with the new test-build.

MTV don't have https [www.mtv.de]

well - i see a very great logfile over SHH - but how i post them here?
sudo nano /home/pi/.xbmc//temp/xbmc.log , its hard for a windows user :-)

btw:
it's not possible to de-install "xbmc-13-20140105-nc3-aae-dvd" over the Programm Menü on xbmc (delete)

SSH: Type 'helpme' and get a link to the log (uploaded to internet)

Easiest is to use SFTP (e.g Cyberduck or FileZilla).
Post log to pastebin or similar site.
Edit: helpme might work, but since persistent logs was implemented syslog might be to big.

Just to test, do you think you can rename .xbmc and reboot (/home/pi/.xbmc)?
This will let XBMC start fresh without your current user data and addons but keep a backup.
The first minute or so it will update all addons etc. so CPU will be high but (hopefully) should go down after that.

Edit2: To delete previous builds:
Code:
sudo rm -R /home/pi/.upgrade/name_of_test_build_directory

...sorry

As a rule on this forum, do not paste logs directly here (it will probably get deleted), use something like pastebin.com or similar.

Cannot see anything specific, can you try to rename .xbmc and reboot?

ok - that's all a Network Problem - i see them now.
Raspy 2 have now no connectionto my PC and all works fine.

Think, i must rework my network config between Raspi and my Windows7

Ignorance of the law is no excuse lol

Hehe... that happens.
I would have thought that something should show up in a debug log though, but it might be something that is not set to log.

I was not aware I had to, thanks for the heads up. I have now ordered license keys and hopefully that will fix the issue, thanks again.

Updated Gotham build, based on XBMC master Jan 14, clone from newclock3 branch with some extra PR´s.

• Same patches from nc3 as previous build + some more AE patches (see newclock3)
• Fix for buffermode (previously broken) by Arnova.
Tamland´s PR for hls/https streams (missed in last build)

Recommendations:
• Libdvdcss (see post #1), this might be required
• Dec update or latest firmware from master (see post #1)
• Fresh guisettings.xml if you come from Frodo or old Gotham
• Recheck all settings after install

To install, SSH to Pi:
Code:
cd .upgrade
wget -O xbmc-13-20140117-nc3-bm.tar.gz http://goo.gl/J36Yek --no-check-certificate
mkdir -p xbmc-13-20140117-nc3-bm
tar -xzf xbmc-13-20140117-nc3-bm.tar.gz -C xbmc-13-20140117-nc3-bm
cd xbmc-13-20140117-nc3-bm/xbmc-bcm/xbmc-bin/lib/xbmc/system
cp /usr/local/lib/libdvdcss.so.2.1.0 .
ln -sf libdvdcss.so.2.1.0 libdvdcss.so.2
ln -sf libdvdcss.so.2 libdvdcss.so
Activate new build in "Raspbmc Settings/Nightly…/Switch…”, choose new build + restart XBMC.

Personally, I am interested in the following, and feedback is appreciated:

* Buffermode. This was previously broken for me (forgot about it though).
I have tried this patch myself (briefly) and it seems to work.

* Tamland needs some love if it truly fixes anything, I have seen some comments on the NRK thread that this fixes HD live streaming (HLS/HTTPS). Is this so?
I included this patch as I thought it would fix live sport streaming from SVTPlay, but I have not tried this yet.

Thanks for that last update miappa.

One question about the config.txt. Sometimes my config.txt gets overwritten back to the default one. I can instantly see it as colors are not right with the default config.txt
My question is does anyone knows of a way to actually protect the config.txt from being EVER written?

Thanks
