Video is unexpectedly unavailable #164

Closed justinbyoung closed 7 years ago

justinbyoung commented 7 years ago

I have haystack.tv set up as a second Live Channels source. If I play a haystack channel I am then unable to play a TV Headend channel, I get a "The video is unexpectedly unavailable" message. It will sometimes play the first few seconds of the first tvheadend channel, but then it stops. Changing channel just gives a black image from then on. I have the same issue on both my Shield TV and a Xiaomi Mibox. A reboot seems to be the only way to get Live Channels working again.

Okay, I can see part of what's happening from this log and am guessing a little at the rest, the subscription is taking longer than a second to start, we're timing out, and not handling the error condition.

I'm curious about your setup, and why it's taking so long to subscribe to a channel?

justinbyoung commented 7 years ago

What do you need to know? Server or client setup? I am assuming server.

Server details Ubuntu 16.04 HTS Tvheadend 4.2.1-1~g658ddd6 (just upgraded but was having the same issue with 4.1)

What other details would you like?

I have two clients, a Shield TV and Xiaomi Mibox. Both have the same issue.

I just found that by Force Stopping tvheadend on the client I can get Live Channels working without rebooting.

I have reverted to 0.3.6 for the moment and that version is working fine.

kiall commented 7 years ago

Given 0.3.6 works, I suspect this and #165 are the same issue.

kiall commented 7 years ago

Going to close this one in flavor of #165 as more conversation has happened over there
