Hi janbar,
I have another issue related to channel switching. I'm not sure if this problem is in addon or in mythbacked(s). I'll try to explain it, maybe you can figure out what's going on and/or point me somewhere.

1. start live tv playback
   
2. after a while press channel up/dn
   
3. playback stops and screen returns back to the "TV channels" list
   

This happens randomly, not on every channel switch. Also it is not important how the channel was switched (using channel button, from EPG screen or from tv channels list (with live tv playing in background)).

Similar problem I had also with "old" cmyth addon, but in that case xbmc randomly crashes in step 3.

Here is full xbmc log: http://xbmclogs.com/show.php?id=317284

Thank you for any ideas.

Maybe the switch time is too long. Try to increase the tuning delay from settings screen to 10 sec (Advanced tab). By default it is initialized with 5 sec. After this delay the playback is stopped if none of file has been connected.

Tuning delay is set to 30s (changed after plugin installation).

I quickly looked into logs, compared few successful and wrong channel switches. Difference can be found after live stream open is completed:

Code:

(CPPMyth)SpawnLiveTV: tune delay (XYZms)
OpenLiveStream: Done

In normal situation QUERY_FILETRANSFER is sent to the backend right after. But sometimes not. CDVDPlayer is closed instead and then CloseLiveStream is called. All this happens in same second. What forces cdvdplayer to close? And why? Race hazard? Wrong order of events?

Is it possible for you to check this situation?
Thank you.
