Watch TV from within GUI not working

Added by ruud - almost 11 years ago

Hi,

running latest master (january 4th) from git.
when trying to watch tv from the webbrowser tab [electronic program guide] > [Watch TV]) the window shows, when selection a channel it displays 'Loading' and finally results in an error: 'An unknown error occurred'
please note that the channel is fully functional and displays just fine from within XBMC.

Below is the log entry:

PS. 'Gebroken pijp' translates into 'broken pipe'

You need to allow in the configuration the transcoding option. But beware, it consumes a lot of cpu using it that way..
For direct streaming use either the play beside the program list or install the vlc-plugin, allowing you to swiching channels from the playlist

I do not understand what has changed in this version.
in version 3.4 Firefox would always load 'Totem' (player) in the window and stream without transcoding?
Only thing changed is tvheadend version.
