Re: AW: Fix for stuttering/corrupted streaming of live tv

Your paths to the timeshifting files look kind of weird:

open file \\SERVER\Timeshifting\live4-0.ts.tsbuffer6.ts

(or is it just weird logging?)

I dont think it does.

Its an UNC path to the share i use for timeshift files on my server (the server name is server).

\\server\timeshifting\

Mylle

I use UNC as well, but what I meant was this part:

live4-0.ts.tsbuffer6.ts

How does your file look?

It ends with .tsbuffer like this:

\\Nas\ramdisk\live4-1.ts.tsbuffer

files are looking the same for me

@all
my patch seems to work fine for me an mylle. We'll test this night again if everything is fine i'll post the patch here.

Does anybody else also recognized a lot of discontinutiy errors in tsreader with this patch? (not sure if it is perhaps my cable connection)

Is there a possibility to test this on the latest official release? I have only one system with mediaportal and I could use it to test this (after a backup) but only when the kids are in bed though. :sorry:

Hi,

I'm currently working on a third version after a suggestion from arion_p. It will basically throttle the buffer when tuning a new channel (starts small and grows in steps until it reaches the maximum). This should maintain channel zapping speeds whilst keeping the benefits of the patch.

I now have copies of multiple SVN versions so I will post binaries for 1.1.2, 1.2.0 Alpha and the latest SVN when it's finished. Shouldn't be more than a few days unless there are problems.

Hi Miroslav22,

How is V3 of the patch coming along?

This is no bug in the patch. It's a general one in MP powerscheduler.

Is there any chance for 1.1.0 final users to test that patch without to compile it on your own? Sounds really interesting.

What does the error posted have to do with powerscheduler?
