HTS Client/Tvheadend: dropped, skipped frames, rebuffering

phaze75 · May 21, 2016 at 8:19 PM

Hi,

while watching TV (after about 10mins) the video and/or audio queue empties, the stream freezes, skips and drops frames and starts rebuffering. This issue is reproducable.
I use LE 7.0.1 Generic on an AsRock Beebox with the latest HTS client connecting to a separate TVHeadend server (HTS Tvheadend 4.1-2052 ~ LibreELEC Tvh-addon v7.0.444) built by CvH. Tvheadend server is running on a Wetek Play, LE 7.0.1.

Please find the Logfile here: pwa9ffrwt

Thanks in advance for any support.

Kind regards.

Additional remarks: I tried to switch back to Tvh server 4.0.9 on my Wetek Play and had the same issue. Additionally I used a Windows 10 based Kodi with HTS client to connect to Tvh server 4.1-2052 and had no issues for several hours.

So I guess it must be rather a client related issue on my Beebox...

Hello!

Can you tell something about the hardware and Software the server is running?

Or is it like that?Take a look here:
LibreELEC

Try to dissabled HPET in the BIOS
(Should be in the ACPI settings on ASROCK Boards)

Or:

Via SSH:

Code

mount -o remount,rw /flash

Code

nano /flash/extlinux.conf

Add " hpet=disable" at the end off the append line

Code

APPEND boot=LABEL=SYSTEM disk=LABEL=STORAGE quiet hpet=disable

Ctrl+x to save

Code

mount -o remount,ro /flash

Reboot

Regards

Nicolas

Problem solved. The descrambler has been the issue. Too high latency and timeouts. Thanks anyway, Nicolas.
