default stream profile

Hi, I'm using an excellent plugin for google live channels (via the nvidia shield) called PVR Live to interact (and view) my TVH server.

I've discovered a 'bug' whereby the plugin does 'not' specify a profile, (unlike the actual tvh live channels plugin) and then TVH priority system comes into play.

Everything is ok, apart from the Freeview HD AAC LATM channels, which when placed in the *.ts container under 'pass' profile... they are unplayable via the shield.

This problem also extends to the DVR side, whereby 'pass' gives the same output files (unplayable).

So, to rectify that issue, I created a 'custom' profile, based on HTSP and when TVH records, i end up with a 'playable' *.ts file, all good.

However, PVR live (at the moment), does not send any profile info and the 'default' choice system does not seem to work right.

If I make my 'custom' default (based on HTSP), it ignores is, as does it the real HTSP profile.

It will try and use the mkv profile, but that leads to corrupt files.

If I remove 'all' choices (but still leave my custom ready to go), it ignores is and i see the error...

profile: unable to select a working profile (asked '(null)' alt 'channel')
Jun 7 01:59:16 server tvheadend4395: http: 192.168.11.128: HTTP/1.1 GET /stream/channel -- 503

In the meantime, I've asked the dev for PVR Live to allow settings for profile, but I'm just curious why my 'catch' / 'default' custom profile is being ignored?

Thanks

Neil
