I would "wait and see" on this one, every time I've run into it I just had to wait longer.

It did update overnight. Thanks.

Thanks for the update info! I did not get to my friends house this week to check the log with http. I assume that the 2.2.0 release will automatically replace the beta and he will see the problem again because it will go back to HTTP. Correct? It should™ auto-update but keep the settings from 2.2.0...

Thanks for the testing and info. I agree with your conclusions, but hope you will leave in the UDP option in the mainline release. Still a mystery: why using HTTP at my friends house the channel startup problem occurs. All wired connection from the Firestick to the tuner. No recorder in his system.

I have a few trepidations about adding such an option, but it would be a very valuable tool in cases like this. Do you think it's worth pursuing? I'm not sure if it is worth your effort. My guess is that some packets are being lost or re-transmitted because of network errors and eventually there is...

I did see the same behavior, however, at my friend's house using 18.2. I should have mentioned that I do NOT see the startup problem if I use the HDHomeRun app on the firestick.

I'm not surprised about "udp being udp" I would expect some errors and pixelation. At my friend's house what DOES surprise me is that even with the latest Kodi (18.3) and your beta add-on if I use HTTP and not UDP, I see the strange behavior where when switching to a 1080p (like ESPN HD) channel som...

Cool. Did I ever tell you guys my UDP joke? You may not get it and I really don't care. Bah-dum-dum

So I've upgraded to Kodi 18.3 plus the beta version of the PVR Client in three different environments (my house, and two friend's houses). All seem to be working well. In my friends houses there is NO recorder and previously they would experience the video buffering spinning circle. This no longer h...

Add support for legacy RTP/UDP streaming directly from tuner devices Thank you. I missed the notice from the forum about the update so I just loaded it now. I will test a bit and report back. RTP/UDP does appear to work, but glitches are more visible (I guess if a key frame gets a glitch it stays a...

Thanks!

Wanted to let you know I haven't forgotten about this, but I did run into some problems trying to implement it. It seems very possible, I'm just having problems getting the tuner to actually send me data back. It's probably me messing up how to ask it for the channel I want based on the information...

I also use ethernet to connect the firesticks in my house, but this is not always practical for some of my friends. I observe that the HDHomeRun tuners support UDP, RTP and HTTP natively, nothing else is needed, but I understand that you might need a library to connect with something other than HTTP...

@djp925: So a "strange" request for you. I've installed your client (on a Firestick 4K) for a number of friends who have a similar situation as mine (remote over a long distance radio link to where the tuner lives). In a couple situations I find that the client glitches repeatedly (timer on screen w...

Fix bug in database layer that could cause unhandled exceptions processing NULL column values (ddejager) This resolves a few really dumb mistakes on my part. If a PVR database query returns a single row with just a NULL value in it, there were a handful of places I was taking that NULL result and a...
