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.

try adding this to ~/.kodi/userdata/advancedsettings.xml:

Code:

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

Yep, this fixed it. It works now.

Not sure exactly what we don't like about the stream

I get tons of those errors in Tvh log:
