Description

Hi,

I'm new to tvheadend so it many not a bug.

I see the following messages from syslog (ubuntu) whenever specific HD channels are chosen from the client (pass-thru). The other channels are all OK with video/audio out and no such logs are made.

Check the info dialog in the service grid (i icon) if there's a video PID .

Attach file created using 'wget -O a.ts <URL_from_the_service_grid>'. About 30 seconds. The default profile should be set as 'passthrough' (default settings).

a.ts is attached. It has only audio in the mpeg ts container.

There is no PID 0011 ( 17). It seems that video is broadcasted on different PID. Do you have any reference receiver where you can check which PIDs are used for this service ?

Pls check the attached. This channel has no problem in watching in Windows. Video PID is 17.

Could you try matroska as the muxer ? Or try to disable 'SDT rewrite' in the pass profile. It seems that the pass muxer filters the packets out.

Good. Disabling 'SDT rewrite' did the trick.
Btw, why pass muxer filters the packets out?

  • Subject changed from No video out and only audio to The pass muxer filters out the stream (A/V) data when PID reshared with SI tables (e.g. SDT)
  • Target version set to 4.2

Because the PID is shared with the SDT service information table. It's not simple to determine if the MPEG-TS packet is A/V data or service info. I'll modify the pass muxer behaviour to not rewrite the MPEG-TS packets for these PIDs . Your broadcaster is crazy anyway.
