Please let me know guys if it is working or not.

The sooner I get some feedback the quicker we can include the fix in the next release.

Thanks.

Hi DJBlu,

here is the nighly result. It's much better than evre before. MP was runnig stabil for 8 hours. ,-))

Direct after starting no problems with one client. Now I tested the same with 2 clients and MP on the server. There I got problems starting and watching dvb-s. Now I get the error "program/channel not found" ?

So there is something more wrong ...

After restart everything is well?

Here are the new logs.

This confirms one of my worries. It appears the problem is in the PMT grabber.

Thanks for the files.

Did you enable "EPG Grab when idle"?

Did you enable "EPG Grab when idle"?

Yes it's enabled.

May I help You with anything more?

 

[DJBlu]

Not at the moment thanks.
When I upload another file later I would like you to try it.

 

[DJBlu]

Added another file V4. Please check and let me know how you get on.

Thanks.

Hi DJBue,

here are the test results for You. Unfortunately there are some problems in there.

TVerserver is still hanging or crashing. Last test MP clients worked, I switched from dvb-t to dvb-S and HD was working over 20 min, no error occurs and MP client was not working any more. After killing of MP client also TVserver crashed.

Here are the logs for You.

AND OF COURSE A HAPPY XMAS TO YOU!

Thanks

I took a look at ramu's logs. I remember now those discontinuity problems I also had. Just fixed them in CDiskRecorder::WriteTs with simply commenting out the "return" within that function (near line 997):

if (!m_tsHeader.AdaptionFieldOnly())
{
  //return;
}

This way the continuity counter doesn't get messed up. Surely ramu seem to have reception problems too but this dirty fix should help alot.

 

[DJBlu]

The issue with that is all scrambled packets will get through.

I have modified it so the continuity counter is updated if the stream becomes encrypted for any reason.

Updated file on first page if you could test.

Thanks.

Hi,
working with one client seam sok, so far. I'hve to test it for longer. BUT now it's nearly impossible to watch TV from two clients. Using the some channel is ok but wating dvb-s AND svb-t causes MP to crash!

Here are the logs fpr You

@steffi77: Do You have a stablie version of tswriter for You own? May I test this one, too?
