HDHomeRun Prime Tuner Locked (3 Viewers)

Interesting. Looks like the filter is ignoring requests when the URL doesn't change.

It shouldn't be. Where do you see this behavior in logs?

Hmmm, you're right. Looks like I forgot how my own code works.

If I correctly understand how logging works (for TV logger), it seems that for every line written to log, opens log file, seek to end of log file, writes line and closes log file. For often logging it is not very good approach. In IPTV filter log I don't see such performance problem.

For TsWriter (C++) that is true until MP 1.7 (Owlsroost added async logging)... but not for the C# side. Log4net is used, so unless you're saying log4net does that...?

Maybe only FileLogger class have to be rewritten to be asynchronous, but I'm not familiar how logging with log4net works.

Based on the names of the log files I don't think that code is used anymore:

So... not following the specifics of the ongoing conversation... Curious as to what bug your folks are on the hunt for in these latest post. In terms of the HDHomerun Prime and the issues surrounding MP's use of it, which issues are you guys targeting? I recall 3 issues identified. 1) Firewall issues, 2) Issues with MP properly releasing tuners, and 3) inordinately long channel changes.

In addition to identifying the bug hunt, my next question would be is there a solution to any of the above issues coming out of this soon?

To directly answer your question: we're looking at issue 2 as per the title of the thread. This post summarises the state of affairs reasonably well:
https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/threads/hdhomerun-prime-tuner-locked.124328/page-4#post-1065953

The posts you're seeing now are us trying option 2 as per the above post.

Note: I'm not aware of the specifics of issue 1 in your list. As far as I'm concerned the firewall stuff we've previously talked about is related (but ultimately a side-track) to the problem of MP not releasing tuners. If you feel differently please could you remind me.

For issue 3, this thread:
https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/...leasing-deactivating-tuners-when-done.124174/

I'm still without internet at home so am very limited in what I can do to investigate further at present. You might be advised to try the filter that A Happy Cloud is trying as it may help with this problem as well as the locking/unlocking.

Ok I'm game... I'll try the filter you mentioned... Where to download from and how to install?

As per the previous summary link:
https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/...ortal-url-source-splitter-iptv-filter.121165/

Attached to the first post in that thread. Install instructions also provided in that first post ("installation" section).

Tried the new filter. Channel changes were quicker and consistent. However, a lot of other problems popped up. TV Server getting stopped etc. I ended up reverting back. Don't know if you want logs etc or already have what you need... Can try again and log per request.

Yes please to the log files.
If you can be more specific than "a lot of other problems" it would be appreciated. Otherwise I'll just take what I can get.

Ok... I will try to get to this tomorrow night or this weekend.
