An unknown error occurred (unable to start graph) using DVBIP (1 Viewer)

[Nervesagent]

Situation:
Multiseat MP1.11
Network tuner Anysee N7 (single tuner that outputs http streams)
Sometimes when changing channels we get the error: an unknown error occurred..
It's basically this problem descibed here:
https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/threads/unknown-error-occurred-live-tv.127853/
but with the Mediaportal dvbip filter instead of a tuner card.. is there some time-out I can set to prevent this error?
I've already set all the General - scan value to ridiculous (> 20secs), but the error comes way sooner.
Also made some minor modifications in mpiptvsource.ini but these did not help.

With MP1.10 I did not get this specific error message, but sometimes it did have a problem tuning to a channel, but then it would take the scan timeout I configured before nagging.

Hello again

It looks like you may be using the combined IPTV/URL-splitter filter, instead of the standard IPTV filter that is bundled with TV Server.
Can you confirm?

Ehm... I do have OnlineVideos 2.0.0.0 (that automatically installs the new filter right?)
How do I check? or... how do I reset the normal filter?
I do see that combined filter in my tv-server plugins, but it's disabled..

I don't know.

How do I check?

I was hoping you would know.
Now that I look at the log again:

So, I think you need @georgius

 

[Nervesagent]

i did try enabling the new combined iptv url filter but it did not change anything. then i went on trying mp2 with tvservice 3.5..that was perfect...but mp2 needs some more tweaking for me to replace mp1.it looks limited now but very promising

 

[georgius]

I can check problem probably tomorrow (May 10th, 2015), today I'm going to wedding.

 

[georgius]

Meanwhile, you can try to remove MPUrlSourceSplitter_Parser_Mpeg2TS.dll from filter's folder, maybe parser has problem (in Ubuntu I can't read logs and now I'm repairing RAID array).

Good luck with that..

Renaming the dll did not solve the problem.
It takes about 5 seconds after switching channels before the error appears. It looks like if the channel loads faster than 5 seconds all is fine. If I select the channel the second time after the error it will show up...

 

[georgius]

Can you repeat the error? In MPIPTVSource.log is nothing about error, there is logged information from 11:41:41, but error occured on 11:26:54. From error code it seems that connection to HTTP server was not opened or were not received any data. Clear logs and try again.

It's just a hunch, but I think my issue has something to do with the timeshifting not stopping before switching channels.
What happens is:
1- I start MediaPortal and turn on TV. Channel is displayed immediately (=GOOD)
2- I switch a channel and I get Unknown Error Occurred after 5 secs.
3- I switch to the same channel again and it works.

Could the order be the problem (combined with the fact I'm using a single tuner dvb->ip device called anysee N7?
