Hi,

I've tried out the rc2 of XBMC with VDR and vdr-vnsi. Most of it seems to work, I can see my channels (with EPG), my recordings and timers, but if I want to watch live tv xbmc is going to crash:

XBMC will end in such kind of a "boot loop" because it will crash all the time then:

Distribution: Fedora 17 (i686)
XBMC: 12-rc2 (self compiled)
VDR: 1.7.27
vdr-vnsi: checkout from 29-12-2012

Any help?

There is a version mismatch. Where did you get VNSI addon and vdr-plugin-vnsiserver from? Both should be from:
https://github.com/opdenkamp/xbmc-pvr-addons

If you compile the PVR addons to a zip file, make sure that you have deleted all previous versions of the zip file. Recently I had a case where a user had an old zip file somewhere on the system and XBMC always used this instead of the new one.

Indeed, I was using an older version of the xbmc addon (around rc1). I overlooked to change a script for the checkout.
I recompiled XBMC with the newest checkout of the pvr-addons and now it seems to be working fine (at least no crashes in 15 minutes). :-)

Thanks.
