Ok, I'll go away and figure out about openelec audio (HDMI/AC3/passthrough). I have a limited (but growing) appreciation of the ALSA setup for HDMI, but I'll give it a shot.

I am running 1.95.4-PVR (ION) (I tried 1.95.5 but it had some other issues that made it not loungeroom friendly).

Is there a tool you recommend to extract 20 seconds from a 10+Gb file? I'm not sure if something like avidemux will "correct" some of the details you wish to see?

TS is made of 188 byte chunks. So a command like "dd if=yourfile of=trunkated bs=188 count=xxx" should do. Choose xxx to get about 20s...

Hi there EricV, I have chopped the first 28 seconds of the recording, and attached it here. Not sure if that will work, but here goes.
I've setup the audio as per http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=HOW-TO:Configure_HDMI_audio_on_Gen_1_ION_%28linux%29
I have AC3 passthrough happening on this recording, as if I try to up the volume it says i cant as it is in passthrough.
The AC3 HD recordings still fail to skip with the passthrough active, so possibly still something not right in the file format?

Here is the log for playing back the full file, waiting about 5 seconds, then trying to skip ahead 30 seconds.

So its a problem in the muxer/demuxer. Can you try a mkv recording of the same source, it should also lack audio. It this happens, this is not a ts recording problem but an audio stream extraction pb in the muxer/demuxer that is not specific to TS. I bet a raw dump of the stream with the about the same duration would help then.

Hi EricV, I have chopped out a start of hte MKV from the same source, it is attached. I used the same command, so hopefully the BS=188 is still valid.

I'll record a raw one next if that helps.

Cheers Nathan

Unfortunately, the structure of mkv is totally different, but you did cut past the complete header, so even if the file is not totally correct I can play it, with sound using XBMC or mplayer2. It is advertized as 4.1 in XBMC

Codec ID : A_AC3
Bit rate mode : Constant
Bit rate : 448 Kbps
Channel(s) : 5 channels
Channel positions : Front: L C R, Side: L R

So I dunno why it does not work with your setup.

Hi EricV, I'm not sure i understand where this has lead us to?
The ts recording of the HD AC3 source has structural issues
The mkv recording of the same source looks ok?

MKV
Playing ok on all channels (liveTV, recordings)
Seeking ok on all recordings (once completed)
Seeking NOT ok on recordings in progress (aka timeshift) - it takes 15 seconds to do a 30 second advance

TS
Playing ok on all channels (liveTV, recordings)
Seeking ok on all completed recordings APART from one channel (channel one)
Seeking ok on recordings in progress APART from one channel (channel one)

The TS option is working great apart from the one channel that does AC3. This is bascially a HD sport channel.

Any ideas?

Cheers Nathan

No. In fact If I can play the ts and have sound, probably the ts structure is also OK. Anyway a failure in the identification of stream in ts would lead to failure in the mkv.

MKV cannot be used on recording in progress in theory. TS is better suited for that, except that TS for seeking in bad by design as you should record the location of iframe to do the seeking like vdr does.

No.

I though you had no sound at all and that it was not only when doing seeking.

Ah, sorry for the confusion... I have sound fine on both MKV and TS. I have confimed that audio wirks with and without passthrough on TS.

The trouble is that
1) The MKV cant seek very well on a recording in progress (15 seconds to seek 30 seconds ahead), and
2) The TS playback will fail when i seek on a recording from one specific source (Channel one, AC3 HD)

The playback (video and audio) is fine on the TS, and it seeks great on all other srouces.
It just crashes out of playback when you skip ahead on Channel One with AC3 and HD.

Cheers,
Nathan

The mkv header usually contains some information that is missing until recording is finished... That's why using mkv for streaming is a bad idea...

Its probably a bug in the player. Because if you watch while recording is not finished, I bet you are not using the htsp protocol but mount a share in the NAS and play from there?

And BTW ffmpeg ts is not the best one.

I get the same skipping/seeking playback issue in XBMC whether I view through PVR recordings (over htsp) or using NFS to a NAS.

Here are the logs from a htsp playback and also a NFS direct file payback. Same crash

This is the log when I play a problematic recording using the "recording" PVR part in XBMC

Hi Eric,

Installed your version fine, I do get a .ts stream but I'm missing the teletext streams in it. I do get the DBV Subtitles, but not the S_TEXT/UTF8 ones which I do get when I choose mkv as container. Any idea how to get this going ?

The fact it is in mkv means the ts demuxer is able to recognize it before remuxing to mkv. So I'm not sure its not the player that does not recognize it or if it is the PAT/PMT re-generation that is bogus. What player do you use? What version? any sample. Tsinfo/mediainfo output on the ts file?

I did 2 recordings from BBC, mediainfo tells me teletext isn't in the .ts file, while the mkv does have it.
To be complete the mkv does have DVB_SUB and S_TEXT/UTF8, while the ts only has DVB_SUB. For me I have to extract the S_TEXT/UTF8 to make it an .srt which I later use for iPod/iPhone/iPad/AppleTV compatible m4v files by using MP4Box.

If mediainfo use the PAT/PMT description (which I would bet) and the description is wrong, that could easily explain the behavior even if the teletext packets are in the TS. I guess there has been other bugs on this subject but I do not remember the conclusion.

Well I found https://github.com/andoma/tvheadend/pull/44. You can test it and see if it solves your problem.

That link gives me a 404 error this is not the page you are looking for. What am I supposed to do with that link ?
Further if I choose to save as a RAW transport stream which I suppose would give me everything on the transponder results in only video and audio stream all subtitle formats are missing.

You could have figured by yourself that the gt at the end of the link was bogus...

Hi Eric,

It's me again. You gave the link which I did/don't understand what to do with. At https://github.com/andoma/ I do find 'the git sources' of tvheadend but I have no idea what you mean with "pull/44". Should I do a git clone ? Would you be so kind to tell me what to do to solve my problem ?

Kind regards

Henk Schoneveld

PS. I'm a user not a programmer/developer. I know how to configure and compile but that's how far I'm able to get.

Recent change in the tvheadend github location makes the link point nowhere now I'm affraid. However, I integrated the patch myself in my tree and as I'm not able to test requested someone to test it was correctly working. So just update your copy of my git tree and tell me if it works.

.ts - all OK
.mkv - subtitle is "showed" (strange, EricV branch ?) but with bad chars...

how to record or stream subtitle pids?

i can record only audio and video pid in TS.
