Hi,

The problem I have found is related to the TvServer and seems to come very frequently since the upgrade to RC1. The problem is that the PMT information periodical gets read incorrectly so not all of the EMM pids gets registered on the ChannelInfo object.

I have seen the problem in the following class:

Class : TvLibrary.Implementations.DVB.MDPlug
Method : setChannel

In this method there is a test being conducted where if zero EMM pids found then stop processing, which is wrong. This happends from time to time. If I then change channel and switch back again then it able to find the EMM pids and continue processing.... quick fix - comment out the return on zero EMM if ECM is not Zero... or better yet make the PMT read more consistent.

Hi

I have now posted a patch for the problem:
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=647927&aid=1963332&group_id=107397

Hopefully, we can have this patch in the next SVN build

But at issue should be created regarding the inconsistent output of the 'CA Table' parsing, since it something finds EMM and ECM and something don't on channel change.

Thanks, it's in SVN
I still have to rework the pmt parsing in TvServer according to the last changes i made for TsWriter but in the meanwhile your quick fix should do fine
