Recommended Posts

Hi

 

I have set up IPTV and it's working perfectly in Chrome, iOS app and Android app

 

these work on the local network and remotely

 

Theater is version 3.0.6

 

Any Ideas?

 

I can't find anything in the logs and will load up some more testing when I'm but are keen for thoughts

 

seems strange it can run perfectly for hours from the other options just not Theater.

Is the device/pc running theater on connected via WIFI or RJ45 Ethernet?

It's RJ45 

 

It's on the NUC and the Windows Server that it runs fine in everything but Theater

Can you give us more info.  Is this direct playing, transcoding, direct streaming?

Can you provide logs from a time period where this is happening?

Can you please attach the emby server log as well? thanks.

I have this issue frequently with IPTV. At times, it will just quit and I have to restream it. It really doesn't play well with recordings.

 

I came here to post something like this and am not trying to thread-jack you.

 

It would be nice if emby could 'figure out' how best to restart the stream if it ends. The check-box in the configuration of the M3U tuner to restart doesn't do ANYTHING, I have tried it both ways and sometimes it's actually better when it's off.

 

I use xTeve and the developer is going to put buffering on, I may suggest the same of emby. I understand that this is only one way to mitigate the abrupt stream end, but it certainly will help a lot of people that like to watch live TV every once and a while.

 

However, it would be nice if you all could figure out that "reconnect if stream stops" for recording. It's really bad.

Nothing obvious jumps out. I would suggest trying again with the upcoming 4.1 release. Thanks.

When does that happen?

thanks for checking

 

I thought I was going mad.

 

Will wait for the release, if it doesn't work I might try a total reinstall of the emby theater client on one of the machines and see if it makes a difference

So it's working fine from the new server upgrade ran for over 3 hours straight no issues

Interesting, thanks for the feedback.
