jagged Live TV vs HDHomerun


Recommended Posts

Posted

Using Amazon Fire TV, both the Emby App and HDHomerun app. Direct play, using embedded player. Tested direct antenna connection to TV. Also, after connecting HDHR, shows strength at 85%+.

 

HDHR app shows near flawless Live TV thru the HDHR app in Fire TV.

 

Using Emby App, with Live TV and Schedules Direct, several channels are jagged/stuttering, some with those horiz black lines with motion...  About to pull my hair out.

 

Any thoughts on this?

Thank you

Sounds like maybe interlacing that the HDHR app is able to detect but we cannot for some reason.

But it's a direct play through isn't it?

Exactly - so VLC must not be doing the de-interlacing properly.

 

If you turn off VLC or turn off "Direct stream Live TV" is it good?

It's worse.

Can you better describe "worse"?

 

Also, can you confirm exactly how it is playing?  The OSD will tell you something like "Direct/V" or "Trans/I".

Yes, Direct/V. I've tested other settings to no avail. It's hard to explain, but, movement is jerky. Also, at times, you'll see horizontal black lines with movement. Bypassing everything and running antenna direct to tv is fine and smooth. I would be glad to attach loss if you can tell me which ones :). Thanks much

So when you turned off VLC, you still saw "Direct/V"?

No....but it was worse.....I've plugged an ethernet line to the Firetv and getting more of the jagged lines.....im running a Uverse router. I've jacked with all the servings in AFTV trying to find a clue. Again, HDHOMERUN app runs great https://vimeo.com/156929723

I'm running a thread on the Firetv section. There is no problem viewing on iOS iPhone 6

So what do you see in that spot when you disable VLC?

 

Trans/I or Direct/I?

 

Those are interlacing artifacts.

Trans/I. Video is better but still has the horizontal lines with movement. Interestingly, from the Schedules Direct, EPG, the channel will only play for a couple of seconds then fall back to the grid, but not every time....

Actually, from the normal link, the feed will drop.....
