Tvh 4.3: Stuttering HD video / async audio

I have lots of issues with tvheadend 4.3 if it comes to german HD television. To be honest - it is a totally unusable version. I’m running on Intel platform with a Dell 7060 computer that has really more than enough power.

The developers of tvheadend complained that the version i’m using is higly outdated. Is there a chance that you provide the latest version 4.3 build for download in libreelec?

If the latest 4.3 version - that should be a final for about more than a year has no fix I would reinstall with a 4.2 that was at least running for nearby 15 years on an athlon - stable… the worse my super slow athlon gone broken ☹️

Hi, two things:

You can use both of the TVheadend versions, just keep only one enabled. So you can try the 4.2 without to remove the 4.3.

And if I know correctly, the TVH have nothing with the audio-video decoding, that is handled by the media player installed in Kodi. So maybe isn't the TVH the guilty here.

I deactivated TVH 4.3 and enabled TVH 4.2. configured TVH 4.2 and voila - NO stuttering and no audio issues.

As expected, this seems to be a reproducibe defect in the TVH 4.3 version provided with libreelec.

Can one of the maintainer recompile the latest TVH 4.3 version available for testing, please???

CvH may you help here?

LE12 has a slightly outdated version. LE13 (nightlies) have 4.3-2375 which is the latest available version.
