Hi So i know Vero4k is not longer supported, but this doesnt work
When you click add or select a existing one and click edit, nothing pops up to add, obviously it used to as i have existing one, Dont know if somethings changed browser wise but tried edge and chrome
I believe it shows its been fixed on latest tvheadend, and shwos a manual fix, but when i try to edit the file I cant see ref to @match yourserver etc
I would suggest asking the TVH guys if there is a workaround for older versions for now.

Is there any reason installing the new version of tvh through ssh wouldn’t work?
I’ll ask them too if there is a fix
That will only get you the version on osmc’s repo. You will need to build the later version by hacking build.sh in the package.
FWIW I’ve been running tvh built from adef81b8d for a while now. The Add button does work (in Firefox). I just altered build.sh thus

VERSION="adef81b8d2a6edb3a665679f394bac05b7dc91c8"
pull_source "https://github.com/tvheadend/tvheadend/archive/${VERSION}.tar.gz" "$(pwd)/src"
That was last August. You could try something newer.
Cheers, What i meant was remove the TVH thats pre built in osmc store, then install from the following
I have managed to get to to work by going to
/usr/share/tvheadend/src/webui/static
then using the below commands
sudo -s
cp tvh.js.gz tvh.js.gz.orig; gunzip -c tvh.js.gz.orig | sed 's/RegExp.escape(r.get(this.valueField))/RegExp.escape(String(r.get(this.valueField)))/' | gzip > tvh.js.gz
Maybe it is time for us to look at updating TVH in repo. I was waiting for them to cut a new release but I’m not sure when that is going to happen.
Tbh I dont know what the new release would bring, current one does do everything I need and its stable and works.
When you say new release do you mean 4.3? or v5 whenever that maybe
TVH have previously reserved even subnumbers for releases while odd ones signify WIP. So the world has been waiting for years for 4.4. Dunno about 5.0. There’s been a change of staff fairly recently so perhaps it will get some love.
As a long time user of tvheadend, I also think 4.2 is solid and has always done everything I need.
A minor irritation with 4.2 is having programme plot duplicated in title and description, which 4.3 fixes.
Been running 4.3 server on a rpi5 for a while now and it’s also very stable. Zero playback issues, but does struggle to tune all channels on initial setup. Several channels always seem to be locked under ‘parent disabled’ but slowly appear as a mappable service over the next few days.
Not sure if it’s related to the other problem on setup, where several muxes won’t tune any channels until set to idle and then set back to active again.
Vero V solved all my tvh client playback problems by the way. Very happy with performance - it’s been solid as a rock.
I met Flole (TVHeadend lead) at Kodi devcon in Tirana in April.
chewitt (of LibreELEC fame, who is also a team member of TVH) was also there.
I was kindly invited to the TVHeadend Slack
At Kodi devcon there was a suggestion from chewitt to take TVH as it is and cut a release. I believe they might be getting closer to that.
Glad to hear this.
Tariq: If you don’t need that Xbox tuner working on Vero V right now then do you mind if I don’t bother backporting the driver to 4.9? I know what needs to be done but you seem to be the only person requesting it.
We can get support for free / zero effort on the next kernel
I have a patch from when I added support when Raspberry Pi was on 4.9, but the media stack we use is quite different and heavily backported…
Cheers
Sam
Not at all Sam - appreciate you even asking the question. Levels of support here are off the charts!
I was planning to use the Xbox tuner solely for the Vero V testing period you offered, running client and server on same device. Given performance has been so good, I bought a Hauppauge wintv dualhd stick for the rpi tvh server and happy with this setup for now.
