Kodi dev who provided the fix was able to reproduce the issue. Not to mention that the fix worked for the OP. I don't see a reason to call it "hacked".
Only repeating what the dev stated on the GitHub originally before the post was edited.

Fixed by https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/23844. As soon as a more recent commit of the Kodi source is included in LibreELEC, the issue should be fixed. Thank you very much to ksooo and all the others contributing.
A hacked fix so I wouldn’t class this as resolved. This issue was reported on a number of forums particular to Live TV PVR and a number of factors could be at play here causing the problem. Yes it appears to be resolved now but that could change quickly.

Oh man,
I just received my RPI4 on Friday, to find out that there's now an RPi5 on the way.
Another element of the fiasco that is Raspberry Pi these days. So many other SBCs on the market these days at more competitive prices but the RPI cheerleaders who buy into the whole deal will keep pushing the agenda for others to buy the latest model on offer.
You’ve got an RPI4 now that in fairness has been heavily tested by its user base so just enjoy it. We’ve had one reported testing of the RPI5 here and they do say one swallow does not make a summer.

Perhaps it's fixed in the community version? That's on my list of possible things to try. I also read a post here where someone had audio sync issues when streaming from NAS for some reason, which is what I'm doing too. So that's something else to explore. If/when I find the time...
Yes all good in community nightlies.

Not experiencing that behaviour on the Rock64 here.

There’s absolutely no hurry getting LE to run on an RPI5. If the introduction of the RPI4 and the firmware fiasco is anything to go by you’ll need your iron plugged in 24/7.
Such a shame users don’t enjoy the LE user’s experience a little more instead of worrying about the latest hardware it may or may not run on. Leave the developers to their own devices and no doubt when the time is right every user here will know when it’s all ready to go. I think many of these users have more money than sense.

I had an idea your problem was drive related. I’d try and save as much data as possible while you can still access the drive. You could then start the recovery process and possibly reformat the drive in a Linux friendly.
Before attempting this process you could try and remove the TVH client and backend and attempt to perform a backup again to rule out any problems with TVH.
Again before trying any of this could you confirm what hardware LE is installed on and what tuner you are using for TVH

Do you have enough storage space available to do a backup

I think it is related to pvr.hts. Rolled back to 21.0.1-Omega and it seems better, but it will take a few days of regular usage to be sure. Which is odd, because I see no functional change. I also rolled back InputStream Adaptive to 21.1.3.1.
I’ve had endless problems with that add on recently, certainly when I changed to Nexus. I reckon the add on needs a bit of work if the issues I’m reading about are anything to go by.

Hi,
When I restored CE backup on LE, I did it complete with all addons and settings. With option to make restore inside of LE settings.
I use TVhedednd 4.3 with icam patch.
When I installed fresh LE, i just installed this TVH (used in CE) and nothing else. This is TVh I installed: https://temp-file.org/s65xwrZiz1AMOOp/file
Just curious. In the About tab of the TVH UI what version does it report.
-
I have not. I almost haven't tried the official version yet.
If the official version does everything I want it to I'm not sure why I would try the community version. We'll see.Nightly updates. Staying on top of latest developments, bug fixes etc etc. I was purely suggesting a route you could take. You’re happy with what you’re using until you’re not. It’s up to you.

Ok so I tried a different HDMI cable, a Deltaco "HDMI Premium certified cable"/"HDMI High Speed with Ethernet"/"4K UHD 60 Hz" one, and now things seem to work on both LE11 and LE10. Including CEC.
First glance: 1080p@25 Hz H.264 and H.265 looks flawless (and skipping is much faster than with the RPi2 I used before!). Even 1440p@50 Hz scaled to my TV's 1080p resolution looks great! (Again at first glance.)
Have you tried the community version.

Yes, in TVHeadend with the web player playing Live TV works, as well as with VLC. This issue does not exist with video files or any of the video addons (Amazon VOD, Netflix, Disney+, Youtube).
Thanks for the tip to ask in the Arch Linux and Kodi forums, not done so far.
You’ve probably narrowed it down to a possible LAN issue. Assuming Arch would support an installation of Kodi locally try installing Kodi on your local server and evaluate the performance of Live TV there.
You don’t mention if you are using WiFi anywhere between the Server and client. If so replace it with a wired connection. I’ve seen the spinning wheel behaviour and the lack of channels quite often with a WiFi connection.
-
Have you played Live TV directly in TVH and checked for signal quality and possible frame dropping. I’m assuming video files in LE are playing ok. Have you YouTube installed in LE. If so is that playing ok.
Without having your system in front of me it’s sound like some form of buffering issues. I’m not too familiar with Arch Linux so I’m just guessing what the problem could be here. Have you tried in the Kodi and Arch Linux forums for possible solutions.
-
Are you using a DVB tuner attached to your RPI4. If so which one.
-
Could you provide a little more detail on your Live TV setup. You say you are running the server on a separate RPI. A little more detail on the hardware and OS you are using on that side. What type of router are you using.
You don’t mention what skin you use. Try a few different skins as a test to see if it solves the problem.

Not related directly to your board but many of the Rock64 boards exhibited similar symptoms. I do not advise this fix but it appeared that the solder points of the Ethernet socket had loosened somehow and when the board heated through use the intermittent on/off behaviour started. I used a resolder flow to correct the problem and it never returned.
Again I stress do not attempt this repair unless you are very familiar with soldering techniques. I’m not saying your Ethernet port is loose but try reading up on this problem and see for yourself though.

HP did the same a while back with its 6500 chip on the Elite Desk and Pro Desk range The 6500T was definitely a scaled back version so you may well be right https://www.notebookcheck.net/…T_7839_8005.247596.0.html
