QDivision 39 Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 (edited) Hi, When trying to playback Live TV I just get the circle spinning icon and nothing more, when looking at the logs I can see the following filling up the log: 2017-08-15 18:12:17.5820 Info App: Validating segment path D:\Emby\transcoding-temp\3414cd037e8c0b8cb9ce8ef86aed755a0.ts 2017-08-15 18:12:17.6442 Info App: Validating segment path D:\Emby\transcoding-temp\3414cd037e8c0b8cb9ce8ef86aed755a0.ts 2017-08-15 18:12:17.7086 Info App: Validating segment path D:\Emby\transcoding-temp\3414cd037e8c0b8cb9ce8ef86aed755a0.ts 2017-08-15 18:12:17.7695 Info App: Validating segment path D:\Emby\transcoding-temp\3414cd037e8c0b8cb9ce8ef86aed755a0.ts 2017-08-15 18:12:17.8329 Info App: Validating segment path D:\Emby\transcoding-temp\3414cd037e8c0b8cb9ce8ef86aed755a0.ts 2017-08-15 18:12:17.8938 Info App: Validating segment path D:\Emby\transcoding-temp\3414cd037e8c0b8cb9ce8ef86aed755a0.ts 2017-08-15 18:12:17.9568 Info App: Validating segment path D:\Emby\transcoding-temp\3414cd037e8c0b8cb9ce8ef86aed755a0.ts 2017-08-15 18:12:18.0186 Info App: Validating segment path D:\Emby\transcoding-temp\3414cd037e8c0b8cb9ce8ef86aed755a0.ts 2017-08-15 18:12:18.0813 Info App: Validating segment path D:\Emby\transcoding-temp\3414cd037e8c0b8cb9ce8ef86aed755a0.ts 2017-08-15 18:12:18.1429 Info App: Validating segment path D:\Emby\transcoding-temp\3414cd037e8c0b8cb9ce8ef86aed755a0.ts 2017-08-15 18:12:18.2072 Info App: Validating segment path D:\Emby\transcoding-temp\3414cd037e8c0b8cb9ce8ef86aed755a0.ts 2017-08-15 18:12:18.2702 Info App: Validating segment path D:\Emby\transcoding-temp\3414cd037e8c0b8cb9ce8ef86aed755a0.ts 2017-08-15 18:12:18.3320 Info App: Validating segment path D:\Emby\transcoding-temp\3414cd037e8c0b8cb9ce8ef86aed755a0.ts 2017-08-15 18:12:18.3947 Info App: Validating segment path D:\Emby\transcoding-temp\3414cd037e8c0b8cb9ce8ef86aed755a0.ts I'm running Windows 10 with emby server 3.2.27.0 and DVBLink backend. I never had any problems when I was on Ubuntu and emby server 3.2.26.0 Attached are the logs Also recorded TV playback seems to take forever to start (approx 30 seconds) not sure if this is linked to this problem.

Spaceboy 2493 Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 Well I never got dvblink working in Emby reliably, despite being a long time dvblink user. So I guess it's similar [emoji3] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pünktchen 1251 Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 @@pünktchen are you seeing this as well? thanks. No problems with MediaPortal in browsers, Theater and Android mobile. Only in Android TV, but there are no errors server side and it's not new! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QDivision 39 Posted August 15, 2017 Author Share Posted August 15, 2017 I didn't have any problems with DVBLink and Emby on Ubuntu and I have tried every other TV backend but DVBLink is by the far the best for my needs. Would be really nice to get it working properly with Emby on Windows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QDivision 39 Posted August 15, 2017 Author Share Posted August 15, 2017 Is it an issue with the .ts file format because recordings take around 30 seconds to start playing (was a few seconds on Linux). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QDivision 39 Posted August 16, 2017 Author Share Posted August 16, 2017 Setting the plugin to use direct stream instead of api works although takes a little while to load up. However I monitored the open streams in dvblink while using the api method and I can see the stream opening then closing about 5-10 seconds later.

Luke 37007 Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 You can setting the plugin to direct stream the live tv to emby vs having dvblink pre-transcode before it gets to emby? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QDivision 39 Posted August 16, 2017 Author Share Posted August 16, 2017 I've experimented with DVBLink pre-transcoding but it doesn't seem to make any difference which is odd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution QDivision 39 Posted August 16, 2017 Author Solution Share Posted August 16, 2017 SOLVED!Weirdly even though the DVBLink server is on the same machine with the IP set to localhost it has the issues mentioned, now that I've set it to the actual IP of the machine everything works flawlessly. Recordings play near instantly and live tv play withing about 5 seconds. Not sure is this is down to how routing is done through emby or on my network. I'm running on a Netgear Nighthawk R7000 with Tomato Firmware so there shouldn't be a problem there but who knows. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
