v17 LibreELEC Testbuilds for RaspberryPi (Kodi 17.0)
I'm having an issue with one of the satellite HDTV channels - it does not work in Kodi, however I can stream and record it just fine. The recorded .ts is also unplayable in Kodi.

Yep sorry, wget must have cocked up the download. Tried downloading a second time and it's playing in VLC now.

Edit: With the sample it's probably easier for popcornmix to download and see the issues for himself, but with MMAL enabled the debug log is full of:

and there is no video or sound.

The video also doesn't play when OMX is enabled (no log messages with OMX).

Just tested that ts in Win32 build of Kodi and it worked. This looks like an RPi specific issue.
Not sure if this is possible or even if this is the right place. I'm using #0804 but what I'm seeing is not limited to this build - has affected all previous builds that I can recall trying.

Setup: RPi2 --> Marantz NR-1403 --> Sony TV

When playing media from the library audio and video are in sync. When streaming from either YouTube or Amazon then audio and video are also in sync. However, when using PVR (pvr.hts) there is approximately a 200ms delay between them. I can either resolve this by setting the audio delay on the Marantz or by setting the offset in Kodi (has to be changed depending on what I am watching).

If I tell the TV to play via its speakers, rather then those connected to the Marantz, the delay is still there so this coupled with the fact that library items are OK seems to rule out the Marantz as causing a problem.

Is there any setting that I can use in Kodi that will apply the audio offset only to the PVR streams?

If you record a channel that has the audio offset, is the audio in sync in the recording?
Any different with omxplayer enabled/disabled?

So, recordings seem fine - in sync (without the 200ms delay that I needed to put in when watching live).
I disabled MMAL and enabled OMX - Live TV is fine.

Is it probably about now that you need a debug log?

It's worth a try.

I'd also try playing with:
adjust display refresh rate to match video
sync playback to display
Adjust PLL
Resample method (gpu/other)
Audio passthrough

And report if changing any of those settings avoids the problem.

Not sure exactly what we don't like about the stream, but try adding this to ~/.kodi/userdata/advancedsettings.xml:
Code:

    <omx>
        <omxdecodestartwithvalidframe>0</omxdecodestartwithvalidframe>
    </omx>

Was already set to On Start/Stop in order to address an issue I saw previously around jerky video (which was user error).

Debug log (with Audio and Video component logging): http://sprunge.us/AJUj
Not sure if this is a general Kodi Krypton issue or RPi specific but running #731 I cannot disable the gamepad/joystick. Disabling the addon does nothing (addon says it is disabled), but gamepad is still detected.

Also failing to display many jpeg pictures, kodi.log errors:

I think I've identified what is happening. I've tested this on another TV and didn't seen issue there. So it looks like it was particular to the setup I mentioned previously - Pi --> Marantz --> Sony TV.

It appears that the TV causes lag when going through "Bravia Sync" at 50Hz. Since I switched Kodi to adjust the display refresh rate to match video (stopped my jerky video I was seeing) the audio sync seemed to be more pronounced (hence me seeing it now - no idea why it seemed to be more pronounced on PVR, I actually don't think that was the case now). I've added the following into my advancedsettings.xml and now everything seems to be playing nicely - from all sources.

Code:
<advancedsettings>
  <video>
    <latency>
      <default>0</default>
      <refresh>
        <rate>50</rate>
        <delay>200</delay>
      </refresh>
    </latency>
  </video>
</advancedsettings>

Sorry to have bothered you with something that seems to have been very localised to my TV.

Yep, this fixed it. It works now.

You mean you're trying to disable the "Joystick Support" (aka peripheral.joystick) addon? "peripheral.joystick" is always enabled in these builds - even though you disable it, the add-on will be re-enabled next time Kodi is started (it's a quirk of these builds).

@plinkplonky can you describe your hardware in a little more detail, what devices do you have connected to your RPi?

I see the joystick errors in your log, it's probably one for @garbear to explain.
