For me OpenELEC-RPi.arm-Rbej-Version-Gotham-Branch-c01c97d9d1 only has a 25% success rate with TVHeadend. Most of the time I get a black screen (quick flash of the picture if I stop the stream) and when it works the aspect ratio is wrong.

For Gotham users: do you have time shift option enabled in the Tvheadend server settings?
I don't need time shifting so I had not touched Tvheadend time shift settings.
It has default temp file path left empty.
As I strugled with the same black screen problem as the others here, I decided to try time shifting.
I set default time shift temp file path to my external usb hd and clicked time shifting on.
Live Tv started working better. All the sd channels were showing. Aspectratio was still wrong but overal usability is now allmost perfect.

Darn, with timeshift enabled (and latest rbej build) I'm getting 100% success rate with sd h264 & aac latm dvb-t. (edit: with no timeshift I'm getting misc results, I would say 25-40% success rate).
Aspect ratio is wrong, I haven't looked in the ts file, maybe it is correct and the pixel ratio is wrong anyway an option in tvheadend to manually force an aspect ratio would be great.
I'll have to get another look at this but I think only one audio channel is recognize (mono instead of stereo).
Great work, tvheadend is the easiest pvr backend to set and update (and manually compile) and now very useable with the Raspberry Pi.
Kudos to all the developers.

Morning,
Last night i tried latest Rbej build (Gotham) on a 256 MB raspberry connecting to tvheadend beta (latest build) installed on a linux server and with timeshift enabled.
SD channels (Mpeg2) works great, HD channels (H.264) are a little slow, audio out of sync and it seems like video can't follow audio streams, slowing down and then accelerating...
Default settings, no overclock, only codec license keys added on config.txt .
One crash occured when i was browsing the menu with a SD channel on background.
Unfortunatley i couldn't save log files.
I can retry tonight.
thank you to all developers trying to fix this issue.
The only winning move is not to play.

I have the latest stable tvheadend installation (3.4). Have timeshift enabled.
Installed the rbej Frodo 12.2 branch. This works great with the SD channels, but the HD channels the auto is out of sync.
