I'm experiencing the same issue another user described, TV Channel list is blank upon first opening. Close it and re-open the channels show up.

Build: #0105
Device: Pi 2
Tvheadend: #1231-milhouse-v4.1-1276-ga27ed2e

Moved (.kodi/) and started fresh, issue persists.

Also Tvheadend won't save my recording preferences.

Log states:

Code:
16-01-05 19:23:48.050 settings: Unable to create dir "/storage/.kodi/userdata/addon_data/service.multimedia.tvheadend/dvr/config": Not a directory

This is actually a file that exists, not a directory.

*edit*

Resolved settings issue by moving /storage/.kodi/userdata/addon_data/service.multimedia.tvheadend/dvr/config

Then creating a directory named "config" in its place, finally reconfiguring the record settings.

Regarding tvheadend errors, you'll need to report them to the tvheadend maintainers - that's the downside of using bleeding edge tvheadend builds. Do update to the latest #0105 tvheadend first though, you may find your problem is already fixed.

Empty channel list: I thought that had been fixed already. Which PVR addon? Can you grab a screenshot?

Note that build #0105 has been pulled and I'm uploading a new release #0105b so you may want to update again once it becomes available (in about 40 minutes) - I saw a crash on startup due to PR8080 so I'm reverting that for now. Unfortunately though #0105 will have created a v102 database so you'll need to drop MyVideos102 once you upgrade to the new #0105b.

I don't have anything on the device so no issues with the database.

I was just passing along the Tvheadend problem and how I fixed it for posterity.

I'm using the included Tvheadend HTSP PVR plugin.

I get this crash when attempting to play a youtube video, is it the same as your crash @Milhouse?

Thanks, updating now.

Yes, update to #0105b then once you've updated, drop your MyVideos102 database.

Thanks however if it's a tvheadend problem they'll probably need to know about it so that it's not a problem in future.

Can you confirm this is still an issue in #0105b? The fix was supposed to be PR8710, which has been in the last few builds however before confirming it's still an issue I'll need results of the version of PR8710 that merged to master (which is in #0105b). Thanks.

Oh, and has this only just become an issue with build #0105, or has it been this way for the last few builds that included PR8710 - ie. was it a problem in #0104?

f1vefour · (This post was last modified: 2016-01-06, 08:20 by f1vefour.)

I will report the other issue to Tvheadend devs.

Blank channels started with #0102, #0105b still suffers from the same issue. I skipped #0104 and #0103 did have the issue.

*edit*
It's #0101 that didn't have the blank channel issue.

Just installed build #0105b with corresponding latest version of TVHeadend server and also confirm this issue present in #0105b

I first noticed it after moving up from build #0101 to #0104 and updating to corresponding version of TVHeadend server for #1104.
(did not install builds #0102 #0103)

Note: TVHeadend server is now being correctly reported as 4.1-1322~ga12ec36 in line with installed addon zip filename.

The problem with the empty channels is entirely my fault. I made a change on 28 Dec to the build script (for some other unrelated package) the consequence of which being that when the Confluence skin updated on 2 Jan it was packaged correctly but then named incorrectly, which meant the build failed to find the updated (new) Confluence package and instead used the older Confluence skin package downloaded from OpenELEC master (ie. the skin package without the various fixes for empty channels, and probably many other things that were present in previous builds).

So apologies - this will be fixed in the next build tonight.

Nothing looks likely from that build. Can you double check that #0101 is definitely good and #0102 is definitely bad.

Yes, unfortunately there is a issue sine #0102. I check each new release and then downgrade again ;-)

Now, I made a debug log and activate some component logging with #0105b release

This steps I made:
- start channel 1, no audio, change audio track from AC3 to mpeg2, audio working, change track back, audio working
- change channel 2, audio working but stuttering
- change channel 3, audio working but stuttering
- change channel 4, audio not working
- stop debug

I forget to describe that the audio issue with Live-TV only occurs with MMAL but not with OMXPlayer
