Hi Cody<br>
<br>
There have been a lot of suggestions, I hope you are coming right.
Regarding helping with getting the wiki updated, please email me if
you are serious about helping out. I am working on it and it is a
slow process, so any help is appreciated.<br>
<br>
I am using mythtv frontend on some suystems and kodi on others. I am
using Kodi on two Raspberry PI's on two TV sets. The advantage of
Kodi is that it runs on a Raspberry PI - so you can get a front end
for around $30 plus the cost of cables, power supply, remote, etc.
It runs really well. The kodi and mythtv frontends are used for live
tv and recordings. I have no cable boxes or DTA's (or other ways of
watching TV) in the house.<br>
<br>
Not sure what your timeout could be - some suggestions -<br>
<br>
In Setup, in Capture Cards, Recorder Options, Max Recordings make
sure they are set to 1 for each of the three tuners. Also in the
same place try increasing the Tuning Timeout. <br>
<br>
Is your cable card properly paired at the cable company? <br>
<br>
Make sure you have the latest HD Homerun Prime firmware. There was a
major enhancement with firmware 20150113beta2, so you should have
that or later.<br>
<br>
Check the logs on the hd homerun prime. They may tell you if the
channel was tuned and whether it failed for some reason.<br>
<br>
What about your network speed? When changing channels the network
will likely need enough capacity for two channels at once. Do you
have a gigabit network? <br>
<br>
I don't think your HD ringbuffer size would cause this problem, I
set mine to 40000 to help with the problem of playback occasionally
stopping for a second or two and then continuing. Modern computers
have huge amounts of main memory so you are unlikely to cause
swapping if you increase this.<br>
