I don't see how that patch will help anything either. You've moved
the Reset call that stops the SIParser to after tuning is complete
which shouldn't help - if anything it will makes things worse.
In a sense I'm hoping it would force the NewPMT signal to emit...Adding
the 2nd Reset() will eventually make channel.PMTSet == true for both cases.
Without that call, and if "TuneXXXX" functions in TuneTransport set
"havetuned" to true, the TuneTransport function will eventually return
from the lower part of the code block.. Then "Tune" will always return
false with that "Timeout Getting PMT" message because the value PMTSet
is never set to true.
Hopefully I havn't misread the code.. At least this patch doesn't seem
to break anything for me, still not sure if it actually solves any zero
byte recordings, as I'm still testing....
The problem (assuming you have the same problem as me) is picking up
the PMT from the old multiplex - do you have a siparser log of it
going wrong? Because that should prove whether it is getting the PMT
from the old multiplex.
I'm now running my backend with "-v siparser"....
Given that you need to make sure that tuning is complete before
restarting the SIParser, but the code already seems to do that
assuming that the lock detection is correct. My theory was that
the lock detection was broken which is what my patch attempted
to fix.
I've been running with my patch for two weeks now and haven't lost
anything yet...
Your patch improve things dramatically, but I stil got 1 or 2 zero byte
recordings in around 15+ hrs of recording... I have been using your
patch for a while now and it doesn't seem to break anything, perhaps you
should get Taylor to review your code and commit it to CVS??
Anyway, I'm still actively recording (using ur patch and mine) and will
post my logs if I got more 0 byte files.
They need to be channels on different multiplexes as well so the
card has to retune to a new frequency.
Yup I am doing that... I live in Australia, every channel is in their
own multiplex (i.e. every multiplex is showing the same thing in lousy
SD and crappy HD).. So when I tune to a different channel, I'm tuning to
a different multiplex...
It seems that nobody else is seeing this problem. Are you using a
TwinHan card? Could this be a card problem?
