I tested my modification, doesn't work at all. Guessing adding that "time.sleep(2)" line broke the Python script somehow.

However, my further research tells me that mainly the issue lies at my TV server side. I ran a Ethereal network monitor to capture the network conversations between the Xbox and TV server, I then found that the communication was going well until the point when xbmc.player() is run. My TV server has two IP addresses, despite that I have configured the main IP in the "plug-in settings", the mplayer insisted to stream rtsp data from my TV server's secondary IP address, which caused the connection failed. As soon as I disabled my TV server's secondary IP address, the live tv rtsp steam plays fine, and I don't get to see those two items (~~stop timeshifting and stream 1.0) anymore.

There are still two main issues:
1. ~~stop timeshifting doesn't work at all at my setup. No matter how many times I tried clicking the "~~stop timeshifting", and regardless where I run it from, the timeshifting is still going on TV server.

2. Once I start watching one of the TV channel, switching to any other channel will not change what is been streamed to Xbox, means the first channel's video will still being played at the moment you click any other channel. I think it is to do with the timeshifting cannot be stopped from Xbox.

PS, I just found that now I have more contents shown in the channel list. I used to only see the channel names, now I can also see the programs info following each channel names. That can be a incomplete EPG for me.

[QUOTE="Johnmen, post: 361660, member: 87184"] I tested my modification, doesn't work at all. Guessing adding that "time.sleep(2)" line broke the Python script somehow. However, my further research tells me that mainly the issue lies at my TV server side. I ran a Ethereal network monitor to capture the network conversations between the Xbox and TV server, I then found that the communication was going well until the point when xbmc.player() is run. My TV server has two IP addresses, despite that I have configured the main IP in the "plug-in settings", the mplayer insisted to stream rtsp data from my TV server's secondary IP address, which caused the connection failed.
