Help for tvh n00b losing streaming.
#1
Live TV n00b here so please be gentle.

I have an August T210 on a raspberry pi 2 with tvheadend running in openelec.

A lot of the time it works fine. But if left on for a while I can't stream any channels using either kodi or an htsp client on Android.

At first I thought this was a signal problem as there was some breakup. However I've put a booster in line for the coax and it's fine on my Samsung TV. All channels are fine there including HD.

I'm aware the tuner in the stick may be more susceptible to interference but I find it odd that with time I simply can't stream anything and a reboot of the pi brings back streaming. The epg works the whole time.

I can only assume the dvb stuck is sleeping somehow. So I've disabled power save but no joy with that on or off.

I'm using tvh version 6.0.1 from the unofficial repo but this also offers 4.13.something. if I switch to this the client doesn't connect.

Any tips greatly appreciated as it is driving me mad!

Try connecting the tuner to a powered USB hub instead of directly to the Pi. USB tuners are notoriously flaky though so you may just have a bad tuner.
