Description

I enabled the Timeshift feature in CONFIGURATION > RECORDING > TIMESHIFT

Storage Path was set to a folder that everyone had full access to

When I click pause in Kodi on a live stream, the stream pauses and when I press play. The stream starts playing again. But then stops after exactly the same amount of time I paused for.

I checked the timeshift folder to see if anything had been created, and I found a buffers folder but no files any where.

I've tried this on my Raspberry Pi 1 & 2.

Updated by Stephan Fuchs over 9 years ago

I've checked out the last version through git (tvheadend_3.9.2525~g96898a6) and I can confirm that the bug is present there too.
Reverted to version tvheadend_3.9.2414~gbca6214 and timeshift is working again.

Just tried the in memory timeshift mode (Rpi2 Max Ram used set to 512mb) and its working.

Seems to effect the save to disk mode only

Actually the memory mode seems intermittent

Could you show me the exact configuration (screenshot of the web page - timeshift settings) ?

Also, provide the tvheadend log with '--debug all'.

Sorry for the late reply.

I've attached the screen shot

the timeshift folder has the correct permissions

How do I debug tvheadend thats running as a service? e.g.

service tvheadend start

I enabled debug in the webui debugging tab (see attached image).

Heres the steps I followed

1. Loaded Kodi
2. Play a channel
3. Paused the channel for 10 seconds
4. Continued the pause channel until it stopped (10seconds later)
5. closed Kodi

See attached log

I've also updated to build 3.9.2689 and it still has the same problem

so you either need to specify this on the cmd line or (but i'm not sure about this as I never tried it) +all in the debug subsystem line. Your current log is without any debug info at all as there was no debug subsystem enabled.

Any updates on this issue?

Before "ts 0 could not read buffer" error is line:

[  DEBUG]:htsp: 193.151.124.2 [ steve | XBMC Media Center ] - subscription stop

So XBMC closed the subscription before.

10:50:10.453 [  DEBUG]:timeshift: ts 0 change speed 0
10:50:24.212 [  DEBUG]:timeshift: ts 0 change speed 100
10:51:05.491 [  DEBUG]:timeshift: ts 0 change speed 200
10:51:06.781 [  DEBUG]:timeshift: ts 0 change speed 400
10:51:13.348 [  DEBUG]:htsp: 193.151.124.2 [ steve | XBMC Media Center ] - subscription stop
10:51:13.348 [  ERROR]:timeshift: ts 0 could not read buffer

Could you compile tvh with trace enabled and add 'timeshift' to the trace log (like --trace timeshift). See wiki for more details (debugging).
