I am seeing an issue with the beta build on the RPI. After a period of inactivity (several hours usually) when you wake the PI and immediately try to play a Live TV channel from the TV guide, it gets as far as the Dialog Busy turning logo and then freezes.
I have attached the full logfile. The point at which the first button was pressed on the remote was:
05:16:42.023 T:1962606592 DEBUG: LIRC: Update - NEW at 31822511:6c 0 KEY_DOWN devinput (KEY_DOWN)Moving further down, the log follows the user making they way through to the Channels list and eventually selecting BBC1
05:16:49.610 T:1962606592 DEBUG: CPlayerCoreFactory::GetPlayers(pvr://channels/tv/All channels/pvr.dvblink_14.pvr)Further down the log it opens the live stream, displays dialogbusy.xml, freezes for 15 seconds, then terminates the process.

21:33:32.314 T:1961975808 NOTICE: special://profile/ is mapped to: special://masterprofile/At this point, before the power was pulled, the dialog busy was still displaying on screen. I can see background processes were still running (weathermap).
Any help in identifying why this is happening will be appreciated. This is happening regularly. Full logs are attached.

I have looked into this a little further and I'm beginning to see that the cause of the issue started with with the DVB server not supplying a stream. In essance a server side error - not kodi.
The server side error was because I changed a setting that enabled multiple channels to play at once on a given freeview transponder and I forgot to restart the servers service. The server during this time was thinking there were tuners available when there wasn't.
With that now sorted, is it possible to introduce a "patch" or something into Libreelec that allows it to fail gracefully on stream errors? Maybe introduce a timeout or visible error message?
