It's all recordings.

Which log would I look at? Would teh kodi.log debug log be right? Is ffmpeg involved if I do hardware decoding on RPi 4?

That's the log you posted

Quote from Hauke

Oh, I'm sure it has: The very same video caused problems on one of the earlier versions of LibreELEC bacause of a severe continuity error somewhere in the middle. But if I truncate the video as described earlier, that exact continuity error is in the truncated part, but playback controls are there. I suppose the suggestion that fill bits or something like that cause the issue is more likely. What I'll try is to truncate the file from the back, i.e. cutting away bytes until it works, and then see what actually is in these bytes. Will keep you posted.

Is this issue with 1 recording or with all?

Is the troubling recording the one you uploaded?

You have many ffmpeg errors on your logs..

You say that Rpi2 can do H.265 in software decoding? *wow*...

I a few minutes ago edited my earlier post containing the links, file is back there. Or here

yes it does...been doing 720p for a long time...lately also doing 1080p nicely..

And your recording is also working fine...rewind/ff/pause/etc...probably something to do with Rpi4..

see here

Controls are there, but they don't work... only stop-control has any effect. So I guess the aeon nox silvio is just not as adaptive as estuary...

Play,pause,rewind,ff they all work on mine...try to post the unwatchable sample and i ll try again..

But would it be a hardware decoder thing of the RaspPi, or is it something in Kodi? On my Amlogic device running CoreELEC the exact same files work flawlessly...

On my Rpi 2 it's working fine with skin aeon nox silvo but I only see 2 controls with estuary skin..that s the one you r using..from your screenshot..Libreelec on Rpi...h265 videos where unplayable 2 years ago but now they done a huge inroad and plays flawlessly..

Quote from Hauke

It's a clean install, nothing changed from default.

Try to change skin to aeon nox silvo from kodi repo and try again..

Mario77 in which Hardware? X86, rpi?

I have all controls on confluence on x86

Rpi...estuary no controls...aeon nox silvo i get all controls

Quote from Hauke

Now I'm at a loss... I have recordings that are 1.4 GB and show no playback controls, but if I create a part as described above of a larger video even a 1.8 GB file shows playback controls. Anyone with an idea what in the original files can confuse the player?

Did you try to change Kodi Skin?Could be a skin issue not loading controls..

Quote from Hauke

OK, put the first few minutes (300 kB) online (edited link above).

Will try examples.

EDIT:

Interesting... When I run the linked in video, i.e. the 300K excerpt which I just created using

Code

head -c 300000 original.ts > part.ts

I get playback controls! Also, when I use the demo video no prob, but with larger files I consistently have missing controls. What I will do now is create growing sizes of chunks of the original video and see where it breaks down...

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

It's not really a helpful post for your issue but I m interested to know what this is and how you made it work on libreelec...

Hi,

I am trying to set up my Pi TV Hat (LibreELEC and TVheadend) to receive live TV in the UK. I followed the instructions on the pihut website but despite several attempts, I can't seem to get any channels.

I have tried changing to the alternative transmitter and using a different antenna (I have a roof antenna which works fine with my freeview tuner), but still getting the same result. When scanning, it returns 8 muxes and 0 services.

I don't know if I am missing something and would appreciate any help.

Many thanks.

Probably you are missing something simple..check settings in configuration-dvb inputs-tv adaptors-sony cxd2880 #0...make sure its enabled and network set to dvbt network..initial scan enabled and restart...it should start scanning on startup...and show services...then map what you want..

Try to disable whatever VNC viewer you was using on your network...

restart LE

Which VNC viewer are you using?

Did you install the VNC addon?

Do you have ssh keys on both sides?What is the command line you r using for rsync in your script?

Thanks work now. Wonderful!!!

Is there a method to check if playlist is playing to avoid to run again and again my playlist ? (in cronjob of course)

Sorry for my stupid questions

Thanks again for your support.

maybe try autoexec.py

import xbmc

xbmc.executebuiltin( "PlayMedia(/storage/.kodi/userdata/playlists/music/yourplaylist.m3u)" )

xbmc.executebuiltin( "PlayerControl(repeat)" )

Roberto

Libreelec has cron builtin..you don't really need cronxbmc..

Just tested this and it works fine for what you need..

Play playlist every minute:

* * * * * kodi-send --action='PlayMedia("/storage/.kodi/userdata/playlists/music/yourplaylist.m3u")'

Also after checking the tvheadend settings i noticed that although the default stream is pass kodi still switches to htsp. In fact with htsp disabled the stream wont even play.

HTSP uses Pass for streaming..it just adds tvheadend info to the connection for PVR to show additional info...signal etc

Just leave tvheadend htsp as default and focus to troubleshoot on the frontend..to be sure try to stream from another PC or phone..but it's probably something with RPi4..out of curiosity..do you get the same issues with recordings?

My experience is exactly the same, my RPI3 B+ Works perfectly with 2 dual tuner USB Dvb-c (Hauppauge). Some update mixed up my setup completely, so that I decided to gain Rpi4 due USB 3 ports and more processing power to cut commercials.

Long story short, Rpi4 didn't work too well with live TV, stream was pixelized and buffering hit in constantly. I tried many ways of settings, without any luck.

Finally got fed up with struggling and re-installed libreelec to RPI3 which works perfectly.

I use Tvheadend as frontend as well as backend to transcode.

At this point in time I would use the Rpi4 as TvHeadend Server and use the Rpi2/3 for streaming..
