Description
Hello,
I don't know the technical term for this, but a guess is pixelation.
I don't know what's causing this behaviour. DVB, HTSP, descrambling or muxes. (using DVB)
I don't know if this is already on the bugtracker, if it is then Im sorry.
You can read the full story on tvheadend forum https://www.lonelycoder.com/redmine/boards/14/topics/6967
I've uploaded 2 clips in mkv. 1 HD and 1 SD.
Thank you :)

Can you check whether this is happening with FTA channels, most likely this is related to descrambling (given its DVB-C I wouldn't expect transmission errors).

I have the same issue, but it only occurs on TV4 HD, the same channel as Jim Larz mentions in the forum. This is the only 1080i channel available on Comhem which doesn't require CI+, so it can't be compared with FTA channels. I'll provide more details of my setup when I'm back home.
Best regards
Johan

Sorry for the late answer.
Im not running TVHeadend any longer. But I only had access to 2 FTA SD channels and those did not suffer from this.
However, not all encoded channels did either.
I was using cws when viewing encrypted channels.

There are no FTA HD channels on the Comhem network, but there are 4 HD channels that does not require CI+
- SVT1 HD (720p) - works fine
- SVT2 HD (720p) - works fine
- TV4 HD (1080i) - doesn't work, see capture in attachement
- C More Series HD (1080i) - works fine, but used to have same problem as TV4 HD

recording sample: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/9789478/Studio_-Hockey-VM.mkv
trying to play/recorde TV4 HD in Sweden
tvh log: http://sprunge.us/OZdY
but It seems to work if I set media container to Pass through for recordings...
sample: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/9789478/Ishockey_Ishockey.ts
it could be related to #228 becouse when I play TV4 HD I get MPEG2 Audio only in xbmc and if I play the recorded file I get AC3 Audio only...

I think the problem, from the various descriptions, is in the TVH H264 parser. Unfortunately this is an area of the code I've no experience with, so need to find someone to take a look.

Use latest development code (actually v3.9-2376-g65fd963) . There are many new fixes in the parser routines.

This bug is till present in master I'm afraid.

If it's FTA - just grab the service stream (link is available in the service grid - configuration) using wget or curl. ... 60 seconds.
If it's scrambled - compile tvheadend with --enable-tsdebug , then pass the tsdebug output directory to tvheadend - "--tsdebug <directory>" option and upload the *mux.ts file here.. The file will be created when you tune the service/channel (also for 60 seconds).
I'll try check what's wrong.

Apologies, I've was provided bad intel. It actually works with the latest code :) This bug can be closed as far as I'm concerned. Thanks for your effort.
