Issues on Android #115

I'm running XVDR with XBMC Frodo 12.2 from xbmc.org download site and in general it runs successful on my Samsung Galaxy Ace 2.

I'm using latest xbmc-addon-xvdr plugin for Android as provided in issue 71. I'm connected via Wifi to VDR server. I have around 100 channels in my channellist.

I can:

Deinterlacng doesn't work very good most propabely due to missing horse powers of the Ace 2, so I watch interlaced.

I cannot watch HDTV livet-tv or recording but this is for sure issue of the mobile. I can see everything starting and sound is correct but then video drops to 1 frame per second until it runs out of memory and crashes.

Some issues I have:

  1. Crashing XBMC When starting any movie or specifically live-tv it often crashes. I'm pretty much sure this is because my mobile is running out of memory. When I start watching a low resolution recordings (like br-alpha SDTV in Germany) and when this runs, I can switch to any higher resolution recording or live-tv program (like ARD SDTV) . So I assume when running XBMC the first time, not all libraries for displaying video are initiated.

-> When starting high res live-tv XBMC will start initiating the libraries but it takes so long that in background system runs out of memory while caching data and this crashes XBMC.

  1. Confluence has issues with "menubar" and EPG display: Having to swipe the menu from left into middle makes system stall for some seconds,when using EPG it is extremly slow. I think during this time XBMC fetches data but this is not an asychronious task. So it stalls the system until it got all data. Swiping the menu is then basically impossible. EPG basically compeltely stalls XBMC. This also happens slightly on my laptop but on mobile due to lower performance it really gets weired.
  2. TV-channellist not any longer filled after radio selection in side menu When I use main menu I can switch in between radio and tv-channels without any issue. When using swipe menu and use one time radio channels after this I cannot get the full list of tv-channels any more. Maybe the max numbers of entries has been overwritten or similar list settings. Can be issue with confluence but this doesn't happen on my Windows XBMC.
  3. When starting XBMC states "retriving EPG data". I think this should be "retrieving Channel data" as shortly after this it first states "retrieving time" and then again "retreiving EPG data".

I really like watching TV with my mobile, it gives me additional freedom and is simply cool.

Thanks for your work
