Live TV Not working

[keith2045 6]

I moved my emby server to another server this past weekend and since then I've not been able to watch live TV. I'm using an HD HomeRun tuner on the network.

I've removed the tuner from emby and re-added it but that didnt seem to work. The only thing in the log that stands out to me is

Error SharedHttpPipelineSource: Give up retries copying live stream http://192.168.1.14:5004/auto/v2.1

What else should i look for in the logs (attached)?

 

*Edit* Forgot to mention that this server is in a container, and from inside the container i can access that file above

Also i see this on the tuner side

20230831-11:40:31 Tuner: tuner0 tuning 2.1 KTVI-DT (8vsb:587MHz-3)
20230831-11:40:31 Tuner: tuner0 streaming http to 192.168.1.152:34036
20230831-11:40:34 Tuner: tuner0 http stream ended (remote closed)

Hi, please take a look at this to help you get squared away:

Corrupt Database

Thanks Luke. Fixed the DB issues, i dont see the issues from earlier (i see other ones but not sure it is related).

Anyway, still have the issue with live TV. Attached are updated logs.

Are you still having an issue with this?

[keith2045 6]

Yes i am.

I'm using the docker image and I'm also playing around with jellyfin. Both are running on the same underlying host (different containers) and Jellyfin is able to get live TV.

Every so often with Emby if I try to view something it will work for a few seconds then drop (image is froze on the screen).

I'm able to curl the stream on the host, and from the container. So not really sure what else to try to be honest.

@keith2045are you able to try the 4.8 beta channel and see how that compares?

[keith2045 6]

I'll see if i can test that sometime this week.

Well, it didnt initially work, so i reviewed the logs and found this error.

I fixed this issue and live tv now works. I dont know if i just missed this in the logs for 4.7, possibly. Or maybe 4.8 beta  add/fixed something? Not sure but it is working now. Thanks!
