TVheadend HTSP client - Connection lost problem
#1
Hi, I hope someone can help or point me in the right direction.

I've installed tvheadend v3.4.27 and was able to connected successfully to my tvcard. I am running Ubuntu 13.10.

Under xbmc I looked for settings - addons - to enable my pvr client as most installation guidelines seem to state that pvr addons are installed by default. Going round in circles a few times, today I added the pvr addon manually from a zip file (pvr.hts-linux-x86_64.zip) and I was able to configure it with local host and user name and password.

But immediately a message appears stating TVheadend HTSP client: connection lost.

What is this, as I am able to log into the tvheadend admin web page successfully with the same credentials.

So close and yet so far.

Thanks, Frank

oh, the xbmc log file shows this

I found another post in this forum http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=121353&page=2 suggesting to:

In tvheadend, go into Access control and in the User and Password boxes just put a * and enable streaming. Save that, then go into xbmc and just delete the username/password entries. It should then connect straight up .

Makes no change. Still the same failed authentication.
