Description

Hi All,

I often get no video when streaming iptv into kodi via tvheadend. It seems to be when I get this error message.
globalheaders: gh disable stream 1 H264 (PID 256) threshold 1 qd 453000 qd_max 453000

video-audio - https://pastebin.com/WEjmfpQA
just audio - https://pastebin.com/Hhm1rkyZ

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks

From IRC: The I-frame frequency appears to be 8.3 second for this input. Recent TVH 4.3 has the maximum metadata (I-frame) scan time set to 5 seconds. The question is if to change this scan time in src/plumbing/globalheaders.c - MAX_SCAN_TIME, but the stream with such parameters looks really weird.

Can you try build tvheadend from:

Or apply this patch:

Oh... forget it.
You still get the stream to start, but only audio.
My issue (#5252) is that the stream also doesn't start sometimes (no audio neither video) and the fix above seems to fix it.

Your issue might be a different thing.
