#11235 closed Bug Report - General (Works for me)
LiveTV stops playing when another computer logs in
Reported by: | Owned by: | JYA | |
---|---|---|---|
Priority: | minor | Milestone: | unknown |
Component: | MythTV - Airplay | Version: | 0.26-fixes |
Severity: | medium | Keywords: | |
Cc: | Ticket locked: | no |
Description
LiveTV or recordings will stop playing and will exit to the main menu when another computer on the LAN logs in (or comes out of standby), if the remote computer has PulseAudio? and the user has selected "Make discoverable Apple AirTunes? sound devices available locally" in the preferences.
So for example, when I login to my LinuxMint? laptop, or it comes out of standby, some multicast discovery packets are sent, which MythTV attempts to handle, and MythTV will stop playing the current program and exit to the main menu.
Attached is the mythfrontend console log, which you can see RAOP trying to treat the discovery as a new connection.
Also attached is a packet capture made from the MythTV frontend machine. For purposes of reading the packet capture, here are the machine details:-
Barney 192.168.10.5 - MythTV frontend/backend Wiggum 192.168.10.138 - LinuxMint? 13 laptop with PulseAudio?
It's not a serious issue for me now that I have located the issue and disabled the PulseAudio? setting which was triggering the problem. But it was very confusing at first so hopefully this bug report may save someone from this strange occurrence!

Can't reproduce the issue...
current Playback is interrupted, only if the remote computer is attempting to actually play something; not when it's simply connecting to the AirPlay? server (like iTunes does)
Please try again with 0.27.

This still happens with MythTV 0.27 from LinuxMint? 15. However the same problem occurs with XBMC 13, so maybe this is actually a problem with PulseAudio? initiating some kind of dummy connection when it shouldn't.
