Channels not showing in Live TV in OSMC in RPI 3B+

Help and Support Raspberry Pi
1

I’m trying to configure the live TV option in a Raspberry Pi 3B+ but now I’m struggling with a problem. I’m using a DVB TV µHAT from Raspberry Pi to get access to the channels and I configure the server easily and can see TV in the computer but when I try and access the option Live TV in OSMC it says its unavailable. Even after changing the address to Tvheadend in the options to localhost and adding the username and password I created in the server.

I think providing debug logs and also a screenshot of your PVR client settings would help people to help you

How can i get the log files to a pen drive or via ssh?

To get a better understanding of the problem you are experiencing we need more information from you. The best way to get this information is for you to upload logs that demonstrate your problem. You can learn more about how to submit a useful support request here.

Depending on the used skin you have to set the settings-level to standard or higher, in summary:

  • enable debug logging at settings->system->logging

  • reboot the OSMC device

  • reproduce the issue

  • upload the log set either using the Log Uploader method within the My OSMC menu in the GUI or the ssh method invoking command grab-logs -A

  • publish the provided URL from the log set upload, here

Thanks for your understanding. We hope that we can help you get up and running again shortly.

but then this not so much

09:42:25.054 T:1552495360   DEBUG: AddOnLog: Tvheadend HTSP Client: pvr.hts - new connection requested
09:42:25.055 T:1552495360   ERROR: AddOnLog: Tvheadend HTSP Client: pvr.hts - unable to connect to localhost:9982

Maybe try to replace localhost with 127.0.0.1 in the pvr addon config

After the change from localhost to 127.0.0.1 the problem still exists, this is the Link to the new log file https://paste.osmc.tv/ralurosole

So what are you now getting if you go into Live TV?

It says the date and time in the top left corner and in the bottom right corner it says unavailable. :frowning:

Well maybe one of the TVHeadend Users can help as I don’t have anything to compare to.
