Thanks for the gentle prod about setting password and loggin in - it wasn't exactly clear that was what I needed to do from previous posts, however. With respect to configuring the grabber, as I tried to explain in my earlier posts, tvgrabfile is NOT A FULL/TRUE GRABBER, rather only an uploader and therefore does not have configuration.
Attempting to "configure" tv_grab_file results in:

/usr/bin/tv_grab_file: illegal option -- -
unknown option: -
Usage: tv_grab_file: [--description] [--version] [--capabilities].

Suggestion?

edit ~/.hts/tvheadend/xmltv/config, and in last line change to "current-grabber": "/usr/bin/tv_grab_file" and configure tv_grab_file by editing it with valid xml file which can be downloaded in net or by epgdownloader which is used by me And work... Only encoding polish letters suck, but you can change the iso to utf. by small script.

Hi

From time to time XBMC form Lars PAA crushes. The only thing seems to bo common on those are problems with SQL updates like this:

hello !

i am using your two current packages (xbmc and hts-tvheadend), i suppose they're the newest available on your ppa repo since i downloaded/installed them today

i noticed that my XBMC has been crashing (and rebooting, since it's a standalone running on XBMC live) very often while watching Live TV, with no common situation (other than the stream running) to the event ...

the only thing i noticed is that the last line in the crashlog always tends to be similar to this (only the number in front of .pvr varies) :

Code:

22:55:01 T:2834025328 M:835940352   DEBUG: CGUIInfoManager::SetCurrentMovie(pvr://channels/tv/all/66.pvr)

any idea if that means that updating the EPG of the currently streaming channel can lead to crashes?

if you need any other logs and/or info, lemme know.

[opdenkamp]

@m404:
someone was just telling me the same on irc (could be you ). please provide a full crash log

@janumix:
what OS are you running XBMC on?

edit:
nvm, you said you're running the ppa builds.
what branch+revision is your build from?

[janumix]

I'm sorry - forgot to add: 2:10.4-dharma+pvr~odk45+karmic
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/lars-opdenkamp/xbmc-pvr/ubuntu karmic main

Regards
Janusz

[opdenkamp]

Hmm that would be one of the latest builds. Could you see if it happens in the builds from "master" too?

And please provide a full crashlog.

this happens whenever i try to tune into a channel, whether i do this over the webinterface or via xbmc makes no difference (ofc, it's tvheadend crashing)

since i'm using your patched version of it, i ain't really feeling comfortable with bugging the tvheadend devs with it
how would i go if i wanted to remove your version and replace it with the normal version of lonelycoder ? so that i can see if it's related to the patches you made or if it's a general tvheadend issue?

I'm having a similar problem. It justed start tonight for some reason with svn 5617. I'm using cwc not capmt.

since log has over 10MB, I uploaded it to:

On previous versions it happens, too.

There is one more possible crush problem - log is full of lines like below:

[moontan77]

problem i had above has gone away luckily.

Another problem though with latest svn. Video glitches in all recordings. No errors in log or tvheadend interface but video glitch/breakup every so often. Went back to 2.11 and recordings are fine but i need svn version as it allows me to record some channels 2.11 cant record.

Anyone else get video glitches in recording using svn 5617?

[opdenkamp]

@moontan77
no glitches here. you better ask in #hts on irc instead of this topic.

[martdj]

I saw in trac that Dushmaniacs 2nd patch to TV Headend has now made it (in slightly modified form) into the trunk, so no need anymore to separately patch TV Headend when compiling a new build. I wish Dharma would reach final status soon, so the PVR-Testing branch can be included in the XBMC trunk.

[opdenkamp]

I saw in trac that Dushmaniacs 2nd patch to TV Headend has now made it (in slightly modified form) into the trunk, so no need anymore to separately patch TV Headend when compiling a new build.

hadn't noticed it. I'll remove the patches from the xbmc source tree then.

I wish Dharma would reach final status soon, so the PVR-Testing branch can be included in the XBMC trunk.

don't expect it to be merged instantly after Dharma is final. it'll be merged piece by piece and there will be some refactoring before.
why do you want to have it in trunk anyway? doesn't make much difference to you to fetch another repos than trunk I think.

[Ruud]

I saw in trac that Dushmaniacs 2nd patch to TV Headend has now made it (in slightly modified form) into the trunk, so no need anymore to separately patch TV Headend when compiling a new build.

Yip, yesterday compiled a new build: working like a charm!

I wish Dharma would reach final status soon, so the PVR-Testing branch can be included in the XBMC trunk.

I am totally happy with Lars's repo. Looking at the TTC (time to community ) of backports to latest beta's and RC's I do not currently see any added value.

O Yes.... just noticed that Dushmaniac got 'promoted' to 'Team-XBMC member', congrats on that!

Regards,
Ruud.
