fiveisalive Wrote:OK, pulled down git and built tsp's pvr client branch. Recordings seem to work well. The main issues for me are related to Live TV:
1. There appears to be some issues with the channel numbers. I noticed something similar with dteirney's plugin too. I have a cable connection from which I get local unencrypted (i.e. "clear") QAM channels. The myth backend, however, uses the subchannel notation when scanning and adding the channels (i.e. "2.1" for WGBH for example, see my posts on this thread, starting at page 42 or so: http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=82015&page=42 ).
The PVR plugin does not appear to like it, and it appears to wrongly assign the channels. (i.e. it rounds "2.1" to "2", but when I try to play that channel, it's the wrong channel). This might be a PVR-wide issue, not just mythtv.
fiveisalive : is this something that could be resolved/worked around, by renumbering the channel number is the myth database? I've just started doing that via a script now, to get the UK channels in the right order - so if your existing channel numbers are 'unusual' perhaps you can just normalise them? Here's a link to the UK channel wiki - which might be relevant as a kind of guide... http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/UK_Channel_Assignments
