The same happens when enabling or disabling TV in general. When I click on channel management in the Kodi TV settings, strangely nothing happens.Ĭlearing data (Channel or EPG) leads to a system freeze for 1-2 minutes, with the status bar stuck at 10%. I also tried switching from german (which was installed after the initial setup) back to english, as kind of a a last resort, but this didn't help either. I tried switching between TSReader and ffmpeg in the MediaPortal PVR addon settings, too, partly because of this, but no change either.
There are also no errors regarding a missing license or similar in the Kodi debug log. The other thing which is not clear to me if this has could also have something to do with the MPEG2 license, which is still missing in my case at this point.īut as far as I understand the "TV" option should at least show up in the Main Menu, even if this is missing, just the actual playback of the stream should be affected.
(besides other AddonLog entries, retrieving settings, etc., not concerning any errors)
That I know from my Windows clients, usually it's a clear sign that the backend connection is not working,īut I can't see any corresponding error in the kodi debug log around this timestamp, just:Ĭode 20:11:18 2791.090820 T:1766585248 INFO: AddOnLog: MediaPortal PVR Client: Mediaportal pvr addon 1.13.6 connecting to 198.168.1.123:9596 On Windows this shows up at least, even if the connecting to the Mediaportal Backend is not working without any issues,īut maybe this is just normal behavior for LibreELEC in such situations?Īfter that I get recurring Addon messages from the MediaPortal PVR client in Kodi, telling that the connection was lost, No "popup" in the upper left corner, showing that EPG is updated or at least that something is trying to do the same. The first strange thing here for me is that "TV" is not even showing up in the Confluence Main Menu after doing this. (Backend IP address, SMB User/Password, TV Channel Import Group, streaming method TSReader) I configured the MediaPortal PVR client on the LibreELEC box with exactly the same settings as all other clients and enabled TV in the Kodi settings. The new Raspi client is running on LibreELEC 7.0.3, having the same Kodi (and Mediaportal PVR client) release, freshly installed via NOOBS 2.1.0.
The backend is a MediaPortal 2 Server running on Windows 10.Īll working clients are also running on Windows 10, using Kodi 16.1 (and the matching Mediaportal PVR client 1.13.6). I searched via google and on this forum for a solution, but I couldn't find any useful info. With a LibreELEC Kodi client, running on a Raspberry Pi, but unfortunately I can't get the client running,Įven if I have quite some experience with Kodi and MediaPortal in general already. I have planned to substitue one of my Windows-based Kodi MediaPortal PVR clients, mainly used for "Live TV",
