Dears,

I observed strange behaviour between VDR server / LE client linked with VNSI

Here is the description

On server side (VDR2.2 + VNSI SERVER 1.5.1) with Vdr running

1/ kill -9 10089

2/ vdr -d -P live -P xmltv2vdr -P vnsiserver -v /recordings

On Client side (LE8.0 and LE8.1) with LE showing TV guide

1/ Notification VDR VNSI Client connection lost

2/ Notification VDR VNSI Client connection restored

3/ Full Kodi freeze ( no interaction at all ) but ssh is working

See log …. HZGG

I try with latest VDR & latest VNSI server -> No change

I try with latest LE9 -> instead of freeze I’ve a reboot of LE !

Any idea ?

Thanks in advance

It's a fact the issue is a mix of HW & SW issue

About HW I've the solution

if somebody would like to collaborate to solveSW , feel free to contact me

Dear,

I try to setup different Physical adress for CEC parameter.

After reboot, LE allways redefine it as "0" value

Exisiting some command to send to set it up just after Kodi/LE start ?

Thanks in advance

JP

big mistake !

I 'm obliged to use external CEC adapter(from Pulseeight) , which works perfectly

It's a pitty , because technically all are inside the SOM

Anyway , thanks for your patience

JP

and after rainconf -C 0005 /dev/ttyACM0 , is your CEC still working ?

You cannot imagine how I would be happy if you can make some test

That's the point !

I strictly followed the procedure and just after "rainconf -C 0005 /dev/ttyACM0"

my RC wasn't reponding anymore to any key (and I'm testing on SR carrier & my own carrier)

Are you sure 0005 is the accurate parameter ?

Why my own carrier? because I need a solution for with minimum connectivity (1 eth, 1hdmi, 1 PS, 2USB in a box of 60x70x30mm )

JP

HAve a look on S.R. forum ... may be you can help me

JP

If you Flir is USB device, no chance ! it 's not powered

If you are using Solid run board, unfortunately, there is no permanent 5V on the board

(Hopefully on my carrier , Ive put a secondary 5V power supply for internal use)

I'll report this HW bug to SolidRun if I found the relevant person to advice

Hi ,

I succeed to solve the suspend issue

The solution arose from the spurious wakeup after the suspend

After deep night check, the issue is only linked to HW issue on the carrier board

Please have a look on solidPC Carrier Schematic

on page 2 top right the power supply of USB (V5S_USB) is provided by current limiter ( NCP380) and by V5S

Which means 5V suspended !

this is extremely logical, when LE is entering in suspend , the internal PSU switch off this line and then no power are applied on USB devices.

the spurious wake up is just generated by the delay of NCP380.

On my own carrier , I change from V5S by V5A ( which is always applied ) and the suspend / resume by USB is working like a charm

Regards

JP

I guess you are using Bios 0.00.23

I try 0.00.23 & 0.00.24 (new one) and the result are the same (no good wakeup)

You are right !

I was focused only on suspend , not including the wakeup

It doesn't work for me too in ubuntu

I'll try something alternative, I hope it works... we stay in touch

regards

JP

Hi,

The purpose of my test was to determine if it's linked to BIOS or SW.

Again the test case is simple (I'm not targetted at this stage a usb wakeup , it's just simple test step/step)

XHC1 is enabled in /proc/acpi/wakeup

1/ Bios freshly reset -> LE freshly installed -> only USB key connected -> systemctl suspend -> (Immediately wakeup )

2/ Bios freshly reset -> Ubuntu freshly installed -> only USB key connected -> systemctl suspend -> system suspended !

regarding this test, I 'm not confident that the root cause is Bios

Honestly I'm pure HW specialist with some SW basics.

If you provide some guidande I can investigate by myself .but alone I cannot

I'm 200% convinced we can found the rootcause toghether

thanks in advance

JP

Dears,

I'm using LE8.0.2 on Braswel E8000( Bios freshly resetted & Only one USB Hub is connected for the first test

after deep test, I found one issue about suspend

When in a shell, I type systemctl suspend. My system entered in suspend mode and immediately after it wakes up

A workaround is to disable XHC in /proc/acpi/wakeup or to have no usb plugged.

My concern is I cannot use this workaround because I need usb to wake up my system

After investigation, I installed ubuntu LTS 16.02 on the same system ( and again with a Bios freshly reseted ).

What a surprise to see that suspend works perfectly !

Could you have some guidance to fix / found the correct workaround ?

Thanks in advance

JP

I confirm same behaviour than you Frans.
I'm not using TVH but VDR and basically what frustrate me too is that I try LE on intel platform & Ammlogic platform.
I would say imx6 (Cubox) is more "reactive" than the 2 previous (but with the channel freeze bug, I cannot use it)
I confirm also using 7.03 which is my actual reference too

Thanks vpeter for your contribution
JP

ps1: I've the feeling during the freeze , LE doesn't display .. .but the engine is "running"
ps2: when the freeze channel occur ( and If I reboot manually) "last image" is displayed on the screen ( instead of a black one)

I guess I ve to select only BOB as deinterlace method for all live TV channels , right ?
basically, I still have some issue during channel switching
When image is frozen , I ve to stop the channel ( STOP button) & play again and it works
Some advices?
JP

Hi ,
I'm favorable to test your build
1/Could you provide a link for the download
2/could you provide the deintercaling selection ( BOB ?)
Thanks in advance
JP

Hi,
I installed LE 7.95.2 on intel Braswell from solidrun E8000 Braswell Carrier Boards | SolidRun
Globally speaking the overall result is excellent except the suspend mode

In general menu, instead of shutdown I try to suspend seems LE enters in SLEEP and immediately wakeup
See below the log extract
Thanks in advance for any advices
JP
