Video freezes now and then

[Laurens]

Hi

Now and then the video freezes.
Sometimes I can go back to the main menu of Kodi and sometimes I can only discount the power of my Kodi machine.

Attached the log. It happend in that log time around 21:40.

My server is an Atom bord with 8 cores, 8gb memory, etc..
My client is some i5 or i7 proc with 32gb memory which runs OpenElec with Kodi 14.2 and I'm running version 1.9.13.1 of the plugin.

I'm not sure yet what solves the problem: restarting the server or restarting the client.

I have seen if I just unplug the network card from the server I also have a freeze. Isn't their some code build in for if the network is lost suddenly?

Code: Select all

What could this be?

If i understand you correctly Live TV freezes regulary and you can't watch live tv at all, do you?
- What about recordings?
- did you try to watch live tv with any other of dvblink clients? ( how it works?)

Also try to disable timeshifting feature in DVBLink PVR addon and check how it work without this one.

That's correct. I tried in Safari on Macosx and then it plays hours and hours without any freeze.
We didn't had it with recordings yet, but we don't use that very often.
Will try the timeshifting and let you know!
