Red line in TV Server config (1 Viewer)

[doskabouter]

Damn, got it again. Exactly the same issue (incl. the epg)

Edit: anyone know a workaround for this until the bug is fixed?
Perhaps I could somewhere configure the epg to only run in the middle of the night?

Hello doskabouter

First, thanks for the logs.
I see the very frustrating TsWriter deadlock in both of your log files.
http://mantis.team-mediaportal.com/view.php?id=3947

The fix that you're testing from -->here<-- (actually, here) is the only current patch - we need to know whether it works or not.
Please confirm if you're still getting problems with the patch.

The only known workarounds are:
1. Disable CRC checking for the EPG grabber.
2. Disable the EPG grabber altogether and use web EPG or some other alternative EPG source.

If you don't use the EPG grabber then you won't have the problem, but we also won't be able to fix it.

Can I ask a question.

Do you guys have your hard disks set to spin down(switch off) after x amount of minutes?

Guys can you try this https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/threads/tswriter-deadlock-potential-fix.114898/

Here they are powered down after 20 mins. Should that have anything to do with it?

And as for the patch you linked: I'm still on 1.2.3, so can't try

 

[DJBlu]

The powerdown has caused issues for me in the past. If you turn it off as the spin up can cause discontinuities in the signal.

 

[doskabouter]

Well, I did install the patch from mm (can't find exactly where I got it) for the 1.2.3 version, and I almost never have that problem again

Guy's we think this is fixed now.

Can you try the TSWriter version 6 from this thread https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/threads/tswriter-deadlock-potential-fix.114898/

If you have problems then I would like to know.

Thanks.

Had same "red line" in TV Server Configuration.
Clicked ok and started it again. Now it is gone.
(Also disabled the timeout (60 min) in windows for HDDs)
