TVHeadend Stream Problems with HD Channels

[fallenwitch3r 41]

My System runs on Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS with HTS Tvheadend 4.3-1857~g221c29b40 and Emby Server 4.6.4.0.

My Problem is that i can not Play or Stream HD Channels. All SD Channels working fine.

I noticed that i only can watch during connect to the local Network. Streamin over the Internet does not work.

The Windows Store Emby App playes only SD Channels with Direct streaming

I can play only SD Channles on Webbrowsers like Edge or Opera.

The Android TV App Plays all Channels with direct Play 

Mobile Webbrowsers play only SD Channels

And i noticed that Tvheadend wont drop the connections after stop playing the TV Channels.

 

The strange this that it worked before

Hi, can you upload your server log file for us to look at?

[fallenwitch3r 41]

After switching from tvh plugin to m3u list the cover are showing up. But now trying to watch a HD channel through a m3u file. Most channels are working but some not.

 

Maybe you can get more information with the log

That looks fine in the remux log.

What happens at the client level?

[fallenwitch3r 41]

How do I get the log from the app or the emby website? 

[Carlo 4330]

Log menu.  The latest server log will be the one at the top.

here..

When you look at the channel list menu item is it showing your channels mapped?

[fallenwitch3r 41]

Yes, all channels are mapped. All channels working on Kodi or on VLC but in Emby some channles wont play. The first three channels on my list wont start playing. The loading circle shows up an the screen goes black and then nothing..

Which client are you have issues with?

All. Emby in Android TV, Windows app, Android smartphone app or Webbrowser. The first few channels won't play. All other channels play more or less good. Some have stuttering or buffering problems butnafter a while they play without problems. Only the first few won't play 

 

Edit..

I noticed that more channels won't start playing. Most of them are HD channels. HD Channels that are provided by tvheadend won't play. HD internet steaming Channels play correctly. These channels are integrated into tvheadend. All other channels are dvb-c channles provided by hardware dvb-c tuners.

I don't use tvheadend so can't really comment on it but that would appear to be where to look???

[fallenwitch3r 41]

Maybe but if I know it I wouldn't ask for help

[fallenwitch3r 41]

streaming movies and series in HD works fine

[Carlo 4330]

So the problem is limited to HD streams played back from tvheadend?

Can you try and play back one of these streams and upload the ffmpeg file generated?

[fallenwitch3r 41]

Here I trying to stream a HD channel on my smartphone outside my local network.

OK, that log is reporting bad timing in the stream while trying to remux the file.

It also abruptly stops after about 1:48 into trying to process the stream.

This looks like an mal-formed/incompatible stream.

[fallenwitch3r 41]

I don't know what you mean but how can I fix it? Another TV channel with a 1080p resolution streams great. Only the 720p streams fail.

[Carlo 4330]

What is the source of these streams?  What kind of tuner?

[fallenwitch3r 41]

The source are 2 usb Dvb-c twin tuner. I don't know what happened because everything works fine a few days ago.

[Carlo 4330]

You were originally using a plugin for Live TV to communicate with tvheadend correct?

What happens if you go back to using the plugin vs the m3u file?

[fallenwitch3r 41]

Same thing. 720p channels don't work. I think it's a fine adjust thing but I don't know

[Carlo 4330]

Have you by any chance unplugged the USB tuners to reset them?

[fallenwitch3r 41]

Yes. It does not work

[Carlo 4330]

Can you try playing a different channel and then upload the new ffmpeg log file?
