TVHeadend doesn't check for free tuners when to many timers are set
Added by Oliver Desertfield about 2 years ago
I have running TVHeadend 4.2.9 for about two years now on linux mint 20.1 with a dual dbv-s2 PCIe card (DVBSky S952). And I'm sure that TVHeadend always checked for available tuners when I set more than two recording timers. But TVheadend doesn't do it anymore. I can set much more than two recording timers and TVHeadend accept them all (see attached log). Of course later on only two recordings starts. When I stop one of these two recordings by myself than the next outstanding recordings starts. For all other recordings that doesn't start I have a warning in the LOG similar to this "2022-10-11 20:13:18.150 [ NOTICE]:subscription: 0004: No input source available for subscription "DVR: Tagesschau" to channel "3sat HD".
Why doesn't TVHeadend check for free tuners anymore when I set to much recording timers? Only a wrong setting on my side?
A few weeks ago I had to change my DVBSky S952 card. The old one didn't work anymore. So I bought the same one again (second-hand). I thought that I only had to install the newer DVB-S2 card in my pc and that's all. But I spent several hours to get the newer card working again. Did I made something wrong?

Aha. The username connecting to Tvheadend from TVHadmin must have ADMIN privilege in order to use multi-tuner clash detection. I'll make the requirement more explicit in the README.

Hi Dave
thanks for your hints and help. I now installed TVH 4.3 and now it is working. I set TVHadmin in MULTI mode and I get green, yellow and red ticks depending on timer and transponder setting.
It would be great to have this information inside Kodi but I don't think that a programmer will do this.

Hi Dave
I'm not a coder. So excuse this strange question.
Can you show me or tell me where a coder could find in your software the information if a timer has a green or yellow or red tick?
Probably I can ask in a Kodi forum if a coder can somehow use your information to somehow highlight a timer clash inside Kodi.

The code is in timers2.js.
