Tvheadend

Works fine for me in Firefox 15 on Ubuntu 12.04 64-bit. Maybe it is a plugin or setting in your install or related to Windows/OSX.

I need debug output from FF else I'll probably have to close since we have reports that it does work.

P.S. not saying you're lying, just without something more to go on not much chance of it being resolved.

I have this problem too. All addons disabled. FF15, Windows 7 64.

I have captured output from firefox webconsole, hope this helps in diagnosing the problem:

I have created a build with ExtJS 2.2 replaced by version 2.3. The behaviour of this version was identical to the version with ExtJS 2.2

I'll try and take a look. I really need to find a way to replicate it though.

Just checked with latest release (3.1.675.ga0025) since it has an update to extjs 3.4.0.
The result is still the same, also checked with firefox 3.6.17 from my linux server with the same result.
When opening the tvheadend url with firefox (15 from windows, 3.6.17 from linux) The status bar states 'transferring data from...' and it stays like that, nothing is displayed.

Perfomed another test with latest release.
Tried FireFox 16 beta 5 & beta 6 portable and the results are still the same.

Noticed that if I switch to some random working URL after staring at the 'transferring data from...' message for some time and once that site is loaded press the back button I get a correctly rendered TVHeadend screen and everything works well. Pressing refresh or newly surfing to the TVHeadend url I will get the never ending 'transferring...' message again.

Hope the extra info helps in understanding the cause of this issue.
Any info on tests I can perform or pointers to parts of the TVHeadend code I could investigate are welcome.

Sounds like a bug in Firefox to me. Certainly I'm not interested in investigating issues in other peoples beta software. However we can look at FF15, though I've been unable to reproduce the issues myself so far and I know several users are using latest FF without issue.

But I also accept we've been having several browser specific issues (often browser+setup specific) recently.

Adam

Performed some more investigation using firefox 16.0.1 final and firebug.

Behaviour is still the same on firefox 16.0.1

My gut feeling looking at the code and behaviour is that the blank screen is caused by the way
extjs is bootstrapped. The whole application is launched through the script part in the main html:
Ext.onReady(tvheadend.app.init, tvheadend.app);

If this is started somehow before all external script files are loaded there is a very good chance things go wrong.
Anyone reading this with more extjs knowledge who can elaborate on this?

Tested with TVHEadend 3.3.110~g174bc64
Situation on FireFox still the same but now the 'Active subscriptions' and 'about'
tabs are missing on IE 9.

What browsers are others using that they don't have these issues?

Personally I'm using Chrome 18 and FF 14. I've not tried updating either as I've had no need, other than to try investigating these UI issues, which I've not had time to look into.

Adam

Same issues for me. I'm using FF 7.0.1 in Win7 and TVHeadend stable 3.2 in Linux backend machine.

Hi,
no solution but a (temporary) workaround that is working on my Ubuntu system with FF 16.0.2.
Open a new tab, click on your tvheadend bookmark. Open a second new tab and also open the tvheadend bookmark.
Wait approx. 5 seconds, click on the first tab (which says 'connecting' and click the red cross next to the url (stop loading this page). When it goes okay tvheadend loads in the second tab :), you can now close the first tab.

When you wait to long or not long enough it doesn't work

Possibly this also gives some insight into what the root cause may be (caching?)?

regards,
Ruud.

Just adding more statistics:
I can't get 3.2.18~g40a8920~lucid to open in FF 17.0.1 on Win7, FF 15 on Linux (Mint), FF 17.0 on Ubuntu and Mint, and Chromium 20.0 on Mint.

It does work for me on IE9 on Win7 and also on IE10 (Metro version) on Win8.

I should probably also note that most of these are different computers with completely different configs all round.
Is there anything I can do that would help track this down? Packet capture or something maybe?
