Issue playing channels with TVH backend

Added by Chad McDonald over 6 years ago

I am using TVHeadEnd 4.3 and Kodi 17.6 witht he TVH PVR client. The channels aren't playing Kodi. I can play them with VLC as well as the TvhClient app. When I try to play from Kodi I continually get the line:

parser: H264 stream has not timing information, using 30fps

Not sure what settings to tweak here. I have restarted machines, adjusted stream profiles went back to default streams. All the EPG data and channel data comes across just not video or audio. Help?

I am not entirely sure my issue is identical to this issue but I didnt want to open another thread about channels not playing in Kodi 17.6.
I recently updated TVHE to version 4.3-1213~g3ea69fe on Debian 8, since I updated the TVHE live channels will no longer play I can record the channel and watch the playback but no channel either SD or HS will play in Live tv. The channels will play in the TVHE interface though.

The error in the Kodi log is

I have just updated to Tvheadend 4.3-1220~g39a8ef2 and the problem is now resolved :)

I have exactly the same issue. Exactly. But I cannot upgrade to 1220!? Git master builds only 1206 which is already running here.

PS: I forgot that I'm using a docker container. It's been rebuild every week, so now I've got 1221 also. Running fine now.
