Hi everybody,
after recently setting up a Xen hypervisor with MediaPortal 1 TV Backend on Windows Server 2012 as a virtual machine (PCI passthrough of TV card Hauppauge HVR 2205), I am getting stuttering TV playback on all my frontends. The hardware should in principle be capable of performing the task (32 GB RAM, Intel Xeon processor). I am quite sure of this because with Windows Server 2012 as the physical system (not in a VM), MediaPortal TV server worked fine. Also, with VDR as a backend on a VM, there is no noticable stutter in a Kodi frontend.
I suspect from TSReader.log that there is an increasing lag between image and audio which after some time is corrected via a short timeshift, but I might be wrong. I know that in my setup, there are a lot of different error sources (VM setup, network, etc.), but perhaps somebody more knowledgable would be so kind and have a look into the logfiles to help me find the cause of this stutter? A test with stutter happened between timestamp 14:49 and 14:51, roughly.
BTW, the link to the system specs page https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/account/systemspecs does not work. If you need more information on my system, please let me know.
Best regards,
Paul
