Hi,
I am running the internal firewire changer on a SA4200HD, this works great
but sometimes the box "missfires" and does not send anything on the
firewire bus. If you reissue a request to that box it sends some data.
Would it be possible to add a behaviour (disabled by default) but that
could be enabled by the user in mythtv-setup / Input connections like this
pseudo code:
bool onChannelChange(ChannelChangeData& d)
{
int i = NUM_RETRIES;
bool success = false;
while(i >= 0)
{
sendChannelChangeRequest(d);
if(isDataPresentOnFWBusFromBox(d.GUID))
{
success = true;
break;
}
}
return success;
}
This would be a nice value added as right now anytime there is a misfire
and the recorder create a 0 byte length file, the backend crashes on
commercial flagging or mythweb access (while trying to delete the 0byte
file)
