Hello,
I bought a Pi 4, 4GB memory. I use it to run LibreELEC 9.2.1 for Pi 4 with the Tvheadend HTSP Client (Version 4.4.21.1). This connects to TVHeadend server running on a Pi3B+ that is running on OSMC but with the mediacenter on that Pi stopped... so it runs just (I think) Jessie.
I am getting lots of picture artifacts and occasional popping and squeaking of sound and sound falling out of sync with picture. In TVheadend server there are lots of continuity errors. The problem is worse on HD channels but no channel gives a solid clear picture, HD or SD.
What I have tried:
- The signal strength is good because when I hook the satellite cables and terrestrial cable up to my triple tuner enigma2 box the picture is solid.
- I also tested by plugging the terrestrial cable directly into the back of my TV and the picture is rock solid.
- I also tried playing with the de-interlaced settings... well I don't really know what I am doing with them but I tried them all and none helped.
- I set "Adjust Framerate" to "Always"... not sure if it made any big difference.
Here are some logs.. taken when viewing a particular terrestrial channel that gives rock solid picture when cable is connected directly to TV but gives constant picture break up when the co-ax cable is connected into an enigma2 satellite triple tuner box with minisatip running that feeds the channel to TVHeadend and then on to the LibreELEC Client.

By the way... I had set this up another way and still was getting some picture break up but much LESS breakup... I had the TVHeadend server on the PiB3+ running OSMC and using just this Pi on its own with the TVHeadend HTSP client also on that OSMC Kodi install. That gave some picture breakup still which is why I got the Pi4 because I thought I needed a more powerful and dedicated Kodi client to play the ip tv streams. But unfortunately I actually have even worse picture now with the Pi4.
Any help much appreciated!
