Thanks for that I've been reading this thread as the posts appear and then just re-read the first page for the instructions and must have forgotten that bit.

@Chris, thanks. I get what needs to be done to turn it on but wasn't sure if it was activated on the server would that matter to all the clients.
Now I know that it is multi-seat compatible it doesn't really matter any more

Marcus.

Okay, now I have tried the SVN 15280 and TSreader. I am having big problems with the timeshift buffer playing from the beginning when changing channels. I have discovered that it only happens when changing transponder. In my case I can reproduce it every time like this:

1. Tune 1 st channel.
2. Tune 2nd channel on the same transponder - all is well - no problem with timeshift buffer.
3. Tune to a channel on another transponder - the timeshift buffer is replayed from the beginning (I see 1 st channel above). I can fast forward to catch up to this channel though.
4. If I then tune to a third channel on the same transponder as in point 3 above the timeshift buffer is okay. But as soon as I go back to another transponder it is replayed from the beginning again.

The timeshift buffer works as long as I only tune channels on the same transponder...

Am I the only one? Since it is rather easy to reproduce for me anyway..?
But all in all a very good work frodo!

Running DVB-T, FireDTV, XP SP2, MPV, MPA.
I've tried it with various decoders - with the same result. I also discovered that I get this problem with tsfilesource.ax as well.

Regards.

I have noticed that EXACT same thing but noticed it on the regular ts and this new one. So not sure if it is MP that is the issue or the filter.

Cheers to frodo for all his hard work though it is running smoother then it was a week ago. Almost there i would say

@Frodo:

I've tested the 15280 and unfortunately the results are the same as before...
  • The jump to the begin of the timeshiftbuffer happens still pretty often (~40% of all channels changes). This behaviour becomes much better (down to ~5%) when I disable the "Recreate graph when audio specs change" option.
  • fast-forward and backward is really slow... nearly unusable.
  • When tuning the a scrambled sd channel (premiere) I often get only the sound and no video. With the old filter it works all the time. (have to test this a little bit more detailed)

Let me know if you need some logs.

for your create work! I hope we can sort the remaining issues out together.

Bye
Lars

@ininityloop

For the "no video" issue that lkuench mentioned, I have added logs to post #l143. Unfortunately, nobody has looked at it yet.

Best regards,

Andy

Can confirm the lately mantioned issues here, same transponder with same audio type works most often, same transponder with different audio type works sometimes, changing to another transponder even less often.

Recreating graph if video/audio changes is both checked.

Logs attached, using TT DVB-S 1500 and MPV/MPA codec.

Logs show quite some channel changes in the order I described above.

Kind regards,
Muldini
