Just purchased a 2nd HDHomeRun network tuner

Added by Brent Bolin almost 7 years ago

Already had HDHomeRun Connect dual tuner

Just purchased HDHomeRun Quatro tuner

When I try running both at the same time for a total of 6 HD tuners I see a lot of Continuity counter error. If I stop/disable either one the errors seem to stop

See the same thing happen on 2 instances of tvh running with only one of these tuner boxes enabled on each

Has anybody seen anything like this?

USA
Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS
HTS Tvheadend 4.3-654~ga8fcc4c (unstable)

Continuity errors are often the result of poor network conditions with HDHR tuners. Make sure the path from your tuner to TVH (and to your NAS if not using local storage) is all wired ethernet, gigabit preferably.

Everything is wired GB ethernet. Pretty sure HDHR are only 100MB ports.

Seeing the same issue with TVH stable-4.2

Moved it to another switch and things are looking better. Monitoring.

Thanks for the heads up

SD has had some odd behavior of their tuners depending upon your network hardware. Oddly, it seems that using higher quality/enterprise level switches has caused the most problems. A common "fix" found on SD's forums is to put a cheap unmanaged switch between your tuners and the rest of your network.
