...which is mentioned in the thread I'm linking to, of which I've wrote that I've read and tried everything...

It seems the LibreElec community is a bit less knowledgeable than I expected, at least when it comes to Linux. An insanely simple thing like mounting a share between two linux machines, and why LibreElec somehow has made this difficult, should be one of the easiest questions possible. But alas, not one actual answer. Bye, LibreElec - life's too short to waste on c**p.

Nice....

Sounds to me Like you've tried to mount an Smb shar as NFS Share that's why i posted the link

Hello maybe this is helpfull.

Hello Thomas!

Exactly, you have to make your own keymap.xml.

.kodi/userdata/keymaps/gen.xml

The Hama mce remote Deos Not Work as remote it is more a Keyboard hid device...

Take a Look here:

Update from LE 9.02 to 9.23 some remote Keys are Not working anymore

Hello!

You have to select "start Music virtualization in fullscreen" or Something Like that.

Or you can Switch to fullscreen manually.

The main man chewitt is still on holidays, so keep calm.

Chewitt ansered on July 3rd already and gave him hints what He could try.

Well, thanks for not helping guys. . . . .

Well that's a Bit of unfair...

The Devs don't have every device. And If you self can't even Tell which Hardware is used it is try and Error and a Project for yourself to get it running. Or try a different OS.

Hello!

I think the issues ist related to the fact TVH is running in docker and there is an issue with the rights Management of the folder.

Had Something similiar years ago.

But what keeps me thinking ist the fact the picons are shown on Other clients.

I would suggest to erase the Thumbnail Cache on the KODi pvr client.

Sometimes the picons are also messed Up after a forced Imagecache reset/reload.

So, with Drives localy mounted there are No issues. Only If you use a share which ist Not mmounted locally.

Had such an issue on a Friends rpi3b with a Share from a NAS, playback controls were working sometimes but Out of the blue the Video was lagging and then stops. Turns Out it Was an issue with the rights of the folder.

Hello!

If the ir Header has No Power If the device is switched off.

Then you won't have much Options.

Quote from Hauke

I've tried to narrow things a bit down. With the example file provided earlier, I reduced file size in 50 MB chunks until the playback controls turned up, which was when I reached file size 2085391219 bytes. Then I verified by creating a file 50 MB larger, i.e. 2135391220 bytes. No playback controls there. So I now on this file that just don't works I did

Code

  tail -c 50000000 broken.ts > offending_part.ts

and just only played this part. And, lo and behold, I have playback controls, so I'd infer it's not in the data.

I clamied earlier that the problem was not related to file size, since I had 1.4 GB recordings showing the problems - strange enough, I can no longer reproduce it, although I swear they showed the problem! Perhaps at some point the player just gets broken and a reboot is required.

So I picked another, different file not working, and tried shorten it - this time by 10 MB chunks -, with similar but not exactly the same results: 2154473940 bytes have plackback control (larger than above's not-working-file), 2169473940 bytes no longer have playback controls.

Now it comes: After this, the file in the beginning of the post I said is not working, having 2135391220 bytes, is now working - so it is not even a strictly reproducible problem (which might explain why earlier I claimed a 1.4 GB did not work). RAM seems not to be the problem, I used a small python script to eat up loads of RAM, playback control situation stayed the same. Stupid me, ran the script on the wrong machine... will redo... Redid: RAM is not affecting it.

After a reboot, situation remaind as described: only the largest of the truncated files does not show playback controls...

Maybe it is a problem of Raspberry OS still being 32 bit? The above file sizes not working are remarkably close to 1024 * 1024 * 1024 bytes = 2.147.483.648 bytes, and as far as I understand, this is a limit for 32 bit systems. Still, somehow I don't believe that's the reason - many media files are larger... And the second, working is already beyond that limit...

Last thing possible: The Raspberry works through all files in an asynchronous process and stores metadata in its database. And when the files are fresh, the duration is missing. After a while, the process is done and the information is there and suddenly the files work... Still, I don't believe it: Many files not working are there longer than those not working in the beginneng but working now. Still, what I will do is leave the device running for a few hours and see if things have changed...

In the meanwhile: Does what I write above help anyone to get this puzzle solved?

EDIT!!!: Tried something I should have done in the first place: Copied the file from the network location to RPi SD card --> Playback controls are there for the original file! I guess that should help finding th issue...?

Edit 2: Also USB stick works locally, but not via network.

would be interesting what Happens, If you mount the Share as lokal Volume....

Could it be that the Stream has continue Errors?

You can Check this at the TVH Webinterface.

Regards

Nicolas

By now I am using TVH 4.3 for Testing.

At the Tuners there are the options:

Idle Scan

Initial Scan

I unchecked Both

At the Networks Tab you can select "Skip Startup Scan" for each Network which I have checked.

I am using those settings since TVH 4.2 LE 7 or 8 without issues.

Quote from JoeAverage

moons ago I read (at least for the DigiBit, but I guess it makes sense on other too) that only *one* "idle scan" is sufficing and it saves power too

if all DVB Tuners are on the Same Network e.g. Astra one Scan ist enough.

I don't use idlescan or Scan on Startup cuz Sometimes it Blocks a Tuner for whatever reason.

I have 4 Tuners in my Setup and i have wait for 4 Tuners and 10 sec delay at the tvh Service Add-on also wait for network 20 sec at the le settings.

Quote from Mario77

Not sure if this helps...on estuary I only get rewind,pause and play with your recording...on silvo I get all controls..

Mario77 in which Hardware? X86, rpi?

Hauke I have all controls on confluence on x86

The Only Thing I can think of is Metadata from tvheadend or fillbits in the original DVB Stream...

... KODi Sample Videos are No longer available...

You can try one of These h265 Test videos

MP4 ( H.265 ) | Test Videos

To See If it also Happens there.
