Live TV constantly freezing
#1
I'm using an Asus Chromebox as a TVHeadend server.  It has libreElec 9.2.1 installed with TVHeadend 4.2.8-36.  I'm using HDhomerun Connect and HDhomerun Prime as the tuner.

When viewing TV stations the channel will freeze multiple times a day.

When I have the PMT, PAT, SDT, EIT disabled on the pass stream on the TVHeadend server, I get the following error when it freezes:
2020-03-16 15:31:31.268 subscription: 0057: service instance is bad, reason: No input detected
2020-03-16 15:31:33.268 subscription: 0057: restarting channel 504 WRCDT

When I have PMT, PAT, SDT enabled but EIT disabled on the pass stream I get the following error when it freezes:
2020-03-17 17:24:56.682 TS: HDHomerun Dual/NBC/{PMT:1160}: MPEG2VIDEO @ #1161 Continuity counter error (total 1)
2020-03-17 17:24:56.682 TS: HDHomerun Dual/NBC/{PMT:1160}: AC3 @ #1162 Continuity counter error (total 1)
2020-03-17 17:24:59.134 tsfix: transport stream AC3, DTS discontinuity. DTS = 20332800, last = 20113920

I have the TVHeadend server and tuners all hardwired via moca adapters.  Does anybody know why I constantly loose connection everyday? 
I believe this also causes my recordings to stop early even though the log says it recorded fine.
When the TV station freezes I can stop the video and then select the channel again and it will immediately come back.

Is this a setup issue or software issue?

Any suggestions appreciated.

Thanks for your help

Looks like the issue is with hdhomerun firmware from 022520.  For whatever reason it keeps ending the stream.  HDHomerun says they will release a fix.
