Hi,

Has anyone had success with Kodi v19.0 working with Mediaportal using either the ffmpeg or TSReader (specifically over RTSP) set in the Mediaportal PVR Add-on settings?  Neither Live TV or Recorded TV seem to work.

With ffmpeg I get immediately "One or more items failed to play" message in Kodi.  In the logs I see

"CVideoPlayer::OpenDemuxStream - Error creating demuxer"

I had this method working (that is with "ffmpeg" set in Kodi PVR addon settings) with Kodi 17.6, but I remember it also failed on v18.4/18.5

Changing to TSReader over RTSP, Kodi just "hangs" (busy circle spinning) when playback is attempted.  Looks like the media is being sent over UDP by Mediaportal server but Kodi is not decoding/displaying it.  Logs show:

INFO <general>: AddOnLog: pvr.mediaportal.tvserver: Creating a new TsReader...
INFO <general>: AddOnLog: pvr.mediaportal.tvserver: TsReader open 'rtsp://x.x.x.x/stream3.0'
INFO <general>: AddOnLog: pvr.mediaportal.tvserver: OpenLiveStream: success for channel id 1234 (Channel Name) on card 3
INFO <general>: Creating Demuxer

This method did not work on Kodi 17.6, but 18.4/18.5 it worked (and only seeking would fail).  Now it completely fails!

Any ideas?
