Problem with pvr.wmc on Vero 4K

Hi,

This seems to be the problem:

2020-02-22 14:37:22.557 T:3612291808 ERROR: CVideoPlayerVideo::OpenStream - Invalid framerate 10000000, using forced 25fps and just trust timestamps

I think you should be able to set a fallback framerate under PVR Settings. This should solve you problem.

For some reason the recording has an invalid framerate.

Hi Sam,

I tried enabling the fallback framerate and am still getting the same issues. Kodi log is here and the show I tried watching after enabling the setting was “Good Girls” at timestamp 23:24:15. You will also see me trying to open a live tv channel at 2020-02-23 23:22:59.279 that opens and just buffers until I close it.

It’s still throwing the “ffmpeg[EC02B2E0]: [wtv] Could not find codec parameters for stream 2 (Video: mpeg2video, none(tv), 704x480): unspecified pixel format” error too. Any other ideas?

Change hardware acceleration to HD and up for MPEG2

Hi Sam, tried that and no change in behavior. Here is the log, tried watching “project runway”. It opened after 20 seconds and just sits buffering, getting through about 2 seconds of show per minute. Here is the log.

Hi

Hopefully the issue is now addressed.

I’d appreciate it if you could test this and provide feedback before we potentially release this as an update to other users. To test this update:

  1. Login via the command line
  2. Edit the file /etc/apt/sources.list
  3. Add the following line: deb http://apt.osmc.tv stretch-devel main
  4. Run the following commands to update: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade && reboot
  5. Your system should have have received the update.

Please see if the issue is resolved.

I also recommend you edit /etc/apt/sources.list again and remove the line that you added after updating. This will return you to the normal update channel.
