On the Hour Pauses / Crashes with LiveTV

Reported by: tortise <tortise@…> Owned by: Janne Grunau
Priority: minor Milestone: unknown
Component: MythTV - DVB Version: unknown
Severity: medium Keywords: LiveTV Pause Crash
Cc: Ticket locked: no

Description

On the hour a pause or occasional crash is noted during liveTV on DVB-T on JYA fixes 23893 (and for quite some versions earlier also) Mythbuntu 9.10.

To the attached FE log I've put in spaces to mark repeats on the hour.

The issue is not limited to on the hour but is predominantly noted then. Tortise wonders if this has something to do with the LiveTV file end / begin new changeovers?

http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/6728 might be related with similar initial error messages?

Can I assist with further information?

Your backend is set to a public IP, are you attempting to watch across the internet? Also, the excerpted logs do us no good, we need clean logs from backend and frontend startup.

Replying to robertm:

i) Your backend is set to a public IP, ii) are you attempting to watch across the internet?

i) Not to my understanding and ii) no current plans to do this. Will get you start logs as able. There may be two issues here. 1) That there is a viewing gap, which seems related to the tuner stopping and retuning on the hour and 2) crashes sometimes resulting. Will look to log from startup for the first and second.

Go ahead and give dmesg output for around that time too.

Attachments being made now incl dmesg. At 17:00 there was a pause, no crash his time. 720p H264 content channel this occasion. Not sure if different content is related to crashing, have 576, 720p and 1080i to choose from, will observe all to see if makes any difference. Rebooted just prior with upgrades to NVIDIA 195.36.15 and now fixes 24035. (PS If I wanted to make LiveTV available over the internet there are other ways I'd do it in preference to using mythtv)

The 2010-4-15 file series include several crashes during liveTV. At 2010-04-15 19:00 there was a playback crash confirmed at that time with the message "irrecoverable recorder error" displayed on screen. Content was 720p.

Also I note there is a segfault in dmesg: "[139120.928817] gnome-system-mo[2433]: segfault at 0 ip 04c0c7bc sp bf8646e8 error 6 in libc-2.10.1.so[4b9d000+13e000]"

I think I am experiencing this problem as well. My pauses appear on the top and bottom of the hour if no guide data exists, or on each program change if guide data exists.

Lt me know if I can provide any more details
