Mythtv works for a while, several hours usually, and then it stops recording and my logs fill up with this. I've been rebooting my computer to fix it. Any suggestions?
$ mythbackend --version
Please attach all output as a file in bug reports.
MythTV Version : v29-rc1-4-g696806310a
MythTV Branch : fixes/29
Network Protocol : 91
Library API : 29.20170212-1
QT Version : 5.7.1
Is something wonky there?
I can't find anything else in the logs. Quite a few of these.
Another thing I can suggest is periodically reboot the HDHomerun Prime. I have a ceton eth 6. It has a memory leak that causes a failure after about 6 weeks. I reboot it once a week with a script to avoid that. There may be some command in the hdhomrun utility program to reboot it.
Otherwise I suggest open a ticket so that somebody may look at it.
To be clear @alforddm, are there any other users of the HDHR on your
network? Tablets/Kodi/WMC/tvtime...
There "shouldn't" be. I did a trial run of recording via plex but then went back to using mythtv and removed the tuner from the plex ui. I wondered if somehow plex wasn't still grabbing the turners so I completely removed it and after I restarted the computer, the error hasn't reoccurred. It's only been 24 hrs so I don't know if that actually fixed the problem, or if just hasn't reoccurred. I was pleasantly surprised this morning to find it still working.
I've just got a new HDHOMERUN (a second one) as I think (or thought) my Nova-TD500 was faulty. The new homerun is not working from MythTv front end with the same error as above, the very old homerun (with the same firmware) is working fine. From the backend the new one scans channels ok in setup but if you got into the front end turner states window it shows the device has an error
