Tvheadend

I can confirm this issue. It's not always and also in the current master from past one hour. I use TVHeadend with multiple xmbc 12 clients. When it happends, a channel is somehow exclusive blocked by a client and no other can tune it. But the other clients can tune any other channel, even on the same transponder and therefore on the same tuner. If you try long enough to view the channel anyway, meaning xmbc doesn't show an error so you can just wait some time, the stream crashes on the client how was viewing the channel in first place.

I updated last time somewhere before christmas. Don't know which git version that was, but anything since then produced that issue. Are there any logs I can generate to help you?

Not interessted? It's quite anoying and I wonder how others don't have this issue. I really don't want to roll back...

Patrick,

Any logs you have both XBMC and TVH would be useful. But before doing that can you ensure that you're running the latest versions of all packages. I recently provided a patch for pvr.hts which fixed a race condition that could cause it to appear to fail to receive a channel (though in fact it had actually tuned it correctly and was receiving the stream).

I'm not 100% sure that fix explains this scenario, but it would safe me a lot of checking if you could try latest code first. Especially as I cannot repeat this myself.

Okay, that problem seems to be fixed, thanks a lot. But now I have a problem tuning two channels from the same transponder. If I tune the second channel, the first one gets nearly always kicked, meaning video stops and bitrate shown in tvheadend drops to a few kb/sec.

I didn't mention that I use oscam via capmt connection. But on this side nothing has changed and I can't find anything suspicious in oscam logs. How do I get detailed tvheadend logs? I think the frontend (xbmc) is no issue here.
