only one recording at a time; others fail??

Added by Jim Abernathy almost 6 years ago

I just installed tvheadend on a PC and have it working as a stand alone backend. I have some differences in my setup that may be causing the problem, but I can figure it out.

1. I have 2 HDHR tuners, Quatro and Duo, but since I want them shared between PCs, SmartTV, HDHR Viewer, etc. I need to use the HTTP method of streaming the programs. So I setup a .m3u file with the data needed to connect the HDHR to tvheadend. Below are a few of those lines.

#EXTINF:-1 tvg-name="CBS" tvg-id="I21239.json.schedulesdirect.org" tvg-logo="https://s3.amazonaws.com/schedulesdirect/assets/stationLogos/s21239_h3_aa.png" group-title="OTA",WNCNDT

#EXTINF:-1 tvg-name="Grit" tvg-id="I45742.json.schedulesdirect.org" tvg-logo="https://s3.amazonaws.com/schedulesdirect/assets/stationLogos/s89922_h3_aa.png" group-title="OTA",WNCNDT3
http://192.168.0.27:5004/auto/v17.3

2. Some of my channels are set to one HDHR box and some to the other.
3. the same m3u file works on Android TV's ProgTV app but that is only 1 program at a time.

So I used Kodi and view the EPG and setup 3 recordings, 1 to the 2-tuner box and 2 to the 4-tuner box. Only the first program to grab a tuner works. The rest get some error about Failed due to no free adapter.

I'm betting I have something configured wrong. Hopefully someone can spot it for me.

I figured this out. in DVB Inputs > Network > MyNetwork entry didn't have the Maximum # input streams set to 4 for my Quatro or 2 for my Duo. They both were the default 1.
