Tvheadend

Add more info hardware for example
type of input, transcoding, clients etc.

- i7 2600k
- 16 gb ram
- 1tb sata
- intel quad port in bonding
- 2x TBS 6909, 16 transponder (quad, 36E, NTV)

- no transcoding, just mpegts passthu
- no clients, only 1 session per channel from flussonic

- patched LNB profile at linuxdvb_lnb.c (changed .lnb_switch to 13000)
- patched linuxdvb_frontend.c (increased pids: linuxdvb_pid_t pids²⁵⁶

- try to increase buffer at mpegts_input.c to 100M - the same error after 40-60 min

With TBS git is used
(most crappy driver ever fix one broke other )

latest tbs driver from git already installed

The one with most bugs

use Luis Alves git
https://github.com/ljalves/linux_media/wiki/Installating

okay, thanks,

i try now and inform.

https://github.com/ljalves/linux_media/wiki/Installating

it's very old drivers

and tvheadend see my tbs6909 how MXL500 (or same)

It's same
do you see any change in

 mpegts: too much queued input data (over 50MB), discarding new

and system see only one tbs 6909 (8 trans)

can't find where i can change the limits

sources installed: apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`
нелегко

drivers/media/pci/tbsecp3/tbsecp3.h
line 54

с первого взгляда

put 16,
make
make install
reboot.

still 8 adapters

Because its TBS you need to destroy current kernel
before make install

$ sudo rm -rf /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/media/*

of course!

always remove all media folder from current kernel!!!

still 8 transponders :((

There is other problem

apt install linux-headers-`uname -r` build-essential subversion mercurial libncurses-dev openssl gettext libssl-dev screen libv4l-dev

tvheadend running,
wait for error :))

the same problem with another driver.

after 1h = cpu load 100%

again install latest official TBS drivers from git (https://github.com/tbsdtv/linux_media/wiki)
and return to old HTS Tvheadend 4.1-c0d8614

maybe it's help.

I have box with installed Ubuntu 14.04 x64 (4Gb Ram)and 2x6909
driver from https://github.com/ljalves/linux_media/

Except slow driver loading nothing else is problematic current uptime 3 weeks

maybe ubuntu rulez?
i have an a deb8

/etc/init.d/tvheadend status
Active: active (running) since Fri 2017-06-09 10:03:26 EEST; 4h 18min ago

4h - good fly.
cpu load 25%
debian 8 + open source latest TBS driver + 4.1 tvheadend.

4.3 with some glue :((

Are you transcoding?
25% just for streaming is too much.
