#12092 closed Patch - Feature (fixed)

Delay concurrent tunings on shared SCR bus

Reported by: warpme@… Owned by: Karl Dietz <dekarl@…>
Priority: minor Milestone: 0.28
Component: MythTV - DVB Version: Master Head
Severity: medium Keywords: Unicable
Cc: Ticket locked: no

Description

This is PoC patch for potential issue related to fact that UniCable? bus is shared type bus. For reliable operation, shared bus requires access coordination or collision detection. Patch implements access coordination. From functional point of view patch should avoid situations where 2 or more recorders/EIT scanners are issuing tuning command in EXACTLY the same time. Even as tuner's Disecq HW will serialize commands - Unicable protocol requires defined guard silence between tuning command sets. For reference: in my system (4 unicable tuners, 350-500 recordings per week) I catch 1 such case during 5 months period.
