[mythtv-users] LiveTV not playing

Tue Jan 31 12:03:12 UTC 2006

Hi

Im having trouble watching LiveTV, I can record and watch properly, I can
switch to LiveTV and the backend records as normal (I can watch the
recording later) but I get a message saying theres been an error starting
LiveTV.

Im using svn version 8798

Logs below
hardware is dual xeons, nvidia 6600 agp, 3 nova-t's (various models), 1gb
ram and 5 250gb sata drives, nvidia 8176 (ive tried with 7676 as well)
drivers.

I think the key errors are
RingBuf(/mnt/store/myth/recordings/1035_20060131000559.mpg): Invalid file
(fd 13) when opening '/mnt/store/myth/recordings/1035_20060131000559.mpg'.
4 retries remaining

and

AFD Error: Could not find codec parameters. file was
"/mnt/store/myth/recordings/1035_20060131000559.mpg"
Couldn't open decoder for: /mnt/store/myth/recordings/1035_20060131000559.mpg

Any help appreciated

Cheers

Stuart

The problem with the world is stupidity. Not saying there should be a
capital punishment for stupidity, but why don't we just take the safety
labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself?
