Mike, some problems.. When you specify the device by IP, i.e. 192.168.1.130 port 1 in my test case, it doesn't even get a signal in the channel scanner. When you specify the address as 'ffffffff' port 1 or '101008c6' port 1 you get an error like this once you get a signal on a transport:
2009-07-05 16:04:24.950 HDHRSM(101008c6/1), Error: Failed to set target
So you never end up getting any data, so no tables, so no channel...
I have not tested recording yet as I couldn't get past the channel scanning stage, but I assume the target problem will persist there.

Daniel,
I suspect this is the same RTP vs UDP problem we had on multirec.
I have to defer to Mike on how to fix it, though.

Suggest upgrading the firmware -- rtp support was added at some point in 2007 and is used to detect packet loss over the network.

Mike B, we don't make a habit of requiring firmware updates casually, and we've never done so in a maintenance release. I've uploaded an updated patch which fixes this problem for me. But the IP spec bug remains.

danielk -
I've resubmitted the patch with the UDP fallback and the IP fix but I'm curious exactly what firmware version you're running on your HDHomeRun.

Mike, it appears there is a missing file "hdhomerun_device_selector.h"

- Resolution set to fixed
(In [20877]) Fixes #6672. Fixes several HDHomeRun problems in 0.21-fixes.
This is basically just a resync of the hdhomerun library. We now default to using RDP is supported by the firmware, the signal monitoring info is parsed in the library so that the black box model of the HDHomeRun works too, and we automagically reconnect if our socket connection dies for greater reliability.
Note: This is not quite the library on the silicondust website, Mike added raw IP support to avoid breaking existing 0.21 setups and I backported a couple fixes from trunk.
