Good Work!! Thanks For All The Effort

Waiting eagerly for this! Been having some problems with "stutters" and odd behaviours and it seems a lot of testers have seen quite some improvements with this! Unfortunately I have not had the time to help beta test, sorry! All you devs are doing a great job making the TV Server and client more stable!

Thanks gmex, really appreciate the work you do.

Note to self:

Remember to remove the rawtsdump txt file from c:\ before wondering why everything is acting strange!!! Hmmm...where did the 320GB go?!!

Just uploaded the next version which includes another complete rewrite for the section decoder, which should now also work for NA users.
I tested it with different ts dumps (NA, finland, germany, italy) and all finally showed the exact same results as TsReader (the app).
So i think i finally got it
If this works the next step will be to optimize certain routines which use the section decoder.
I think i can achieve a significant decrease in cpu load there.

Were the NA changes related to sat, atsc, or both? I'm really hoping that I can get audio in atsc recordings, I'll test in a few minutes. I thank you for all of your efforts!

No luck with my hopes for recorded ATSC working. I get no audio when I record as mpg, and it won't play at all if I record as ts.

Sounds great gemx, will test tonight. Did you get a chance have a look at my NewZealand_TVWorks_12456_S_TV3_FTA
tsdump, is it worth it or will my testing show up weather or not there are any issues?

Hi mcraenz, just had a look at the "frozen" ts dump.
I think "RNZ National" and "RNZ Concert" are possibly the channels which freeze.
No wonder because the pmt lists pid 0x209 as pcr pid for both and both programs don't have a stream with that pid, so there seems to be a network error or something else.
No player will probably play these channels.
The corrupted issue maybe gone so it's worth a try.

!!! Important !!!

Please try playback also with the mptvclient + VLC because the TsReader filter doesn't contain the section decoder changes, so chances are that TsWriter is correct but TsReader can't play the file although VLC can.
I just want to make sure here that we don't hunt bugs in TsWriter which are in TsReader
