PVR manager is starting up at 0% forever #278

IcePlanet · 2020-03-23T22:01:41Z

After installing enigma2 plugin and trying to run TV in the upper right corner there is

PVR manager is starting up 0%

and rotating circle forever.
In the log I see message that channels have been loaded.

What I tried:

Uninstall and install Kodi again, but the plugin is back also remembering all configuration.
When I try to uninstall the plugin itself from Kodi UI it freezes and after killed by android the plugin is back with all configuration
I deleted the cache from within Kodi settings (no change)

Phone used is Samsung S10 running on Android 10
Network is reachable, confirmed by opening webif
Attached are logs from uninstall attempt and from the pvr manager is starting with 0% foreve

Log from PVR manager is starting up 0%:
kodi_loading.log

Log from uninstall attempt:
kodi_uninstall_enigma2.log

I'm not using it very often, but I'm sure some time ago (unfortunately I'm not sure how long the time is) it was working flawlessly.

phunkyfish · 2020-03-23T22:27:42Z

It looks like it's still reading the EPG data. Can you use a paste site and provide a full debug log? So a debug log from a restart until it's started up. You can use a GitHub gist of the file is large.

IcePlanet · 2020-03-23T22:36:17Z

@phunkyfish I'm not sure what are you missing in the logs. They are (as uploaded in my first message) complete. I have now downloaded them and checked sha. This is how I got them from kodi.
In kodi I setup the debug log as following:

Enable debug logging YES
Enable component-specific logging NO
Enable event logging YES
Enable notification event logging YES

Out of curiosity I started now my notebook with Kodi, it was for sure working there, but I was long time not using it, and it has the same symptoms.

I also checked the last cca 3-5 links from the log and all are accessible and giving result.

phunkyfish · 2020-03-23T22:42:35Z

Sorry, my mistake!

phunkyfish · 2020-03-23T22:45:34Z

Can you try starting Kodi, leave it for 10 minutes and then post the debug log?

IcePlanet · 2020-03-23T22:55:09Z

This is problematic (I have already tried multiple times) because when I leave the TV screen on it freezes hard and windows kills it, I can leave it max cca 30s to 1min then I must move to another screen in kodi.
On android the behavior is the same, if I have the TV screen open for long it seems on, but it's dead and I'm not even able to open the 3 buttons down, the only option that works is reboot of device via power button.

For each freeze I got this screen twice (if it helps).

phunkyfish · 2020-03-23T23:01:02Z

That is very strange. Are you able to try a kodi 19 nightly?

IcePlanet · 2020-03-23T23:19:57Z

Yes, no problem tried: KodiSetup-20200322-6b1585df-master-x64.exe the result is still the same + new issue, kodi can not be switched off with the enigma2 plugin (seems like it is really trying to do something in background), it hangs and windows shoots it down.

BUT I have downloaded kodi-17.0-Krypton.exe (yes I know it is old but I remembered that it was working previously so wanna try), which is bringing the vu+/enigma plugin within install file and it works on first attempt flawlessly (configured IP and port that was all). TV was on in cca 10 seconds with all channels.

Is it possible to trace the changes in meantime or it is too many changes? Or is there any other way to trace the change causing this strange behavior?

phunkyfish · 2020-03-23T23:31:20Z

It’s because it never finishes starting up. Have you tried clearing the PVR database?

phunkyfish · 2020-03-23T23:32:05Z

Or deleting all setting and starting up from scratch?

IcePlanet · 2020-03-23T23:38:58Z

On Windows tried to delete everything found (The nightly and 17.0 have been both installed the same way: uninstall previous one, in total commander delete everything what 'looks like kodi' and then install), everything works until the enigma 2 is activated (situation is the same in 18 and 19).

On android as I have written previously there I'm not aware how to do clean install as the enigma2 client has survived everything tried until now.

Cleaning PVR database via 2 approaches found:

Delete TV.db and epg.db (not sure about this 2nd file name)
In Kodi go to setup, pvr & live, General, Clear data

None of the 2 deletions above worked in nightly or in actual stable 18.

IcePlanet · 2020-03-24T00:34:39Z

Maybe how the problem can be identified is to compare plugin from 17 (named vu+/enigma2) with new one from 18.
When the 17 needs 10seconds and 18 freezes after minute (the same computer, network, box) then I believe it is worth to look at time in detail what takes how much time. I'm happy to do it, however do not know where/how to start, can someone help and guide me?

In the meantime the solution with downgrading on android did not work as the plugin can not be loaded (unknown error message), can someone please tell me where to delete and what to get rid of the new plugin?

phunkyfish · 2020-03-24T09:37:13Z

Have you been able to you delete the addon settings?

I’m sorry. I only started working with the addon from v18 so nothing nothing about it prior to that.

phunkyfish · 2020-03-24T09:41:29Z

Is kodi actually crashing or is it just freezing?

phunkyfish · 2020-03-24T09:43:09Z

If you have remote access configured I could try and debug it remotely. PM me on the forum it this is possible.

IcePlanet · 2020-03-24T11:28:36Z

@phunkyfish thanks for the interest and willingness. We can try to setup some debug session, but now I'm at work :-) so maybe later in the evening.

To your questions:

Android add-on: No I was not able to delete, it stays there (including configuration) and resists any attempt to delete (after uninstall the kodi folder data/org.xbmc.kodi/ is gone so I do not understand where it can survive)
Kodi on android is freezing whole android and only power button reacts (restart or power off device)
Kodi on PC is "stopped working" so the circle is rotating, mouse moving, but nothing else and after cca 1 min the windows will kill it

What I have made is test with kodi 17 and VU+ /enigma2 plugin on windows:

When I press Kodi in start menu I started stop watch
At 04.38 I pressed TV in kodi interface
At 7.23 I selected channel
At 13.86 the channel was playing (audio + video)

When kodi 17 is able to get playing channel in 14 seconds I would like to hope that 18 will be able to achieve comparable result (if not faster). Maybe there can be something identified in log to understand where is the difference. Attached is complete log from this attempt on KODI 17. (all tests on windows have been done from the same machine, on the same network and to the same sat receiver):
kodi.log

phunkyfish · 2020-03-24T11:55:51Z

No rush. I think you are hitting a deadlock scenario somehow. Kodi 17 would not help us I'm afraid. Let's focus on fixing this in Kodi 19 and we can work back from there.

Please post the settings.xml for the addon from Kodi 19 later on, thanks!

IcePlanet · 2020-03-24T12:02:43Z

There is one thing I found out from the log files:

Search for:

It is in kodi_loading.log on 2 places lines 2358 to 2364 AND lines 5795 to 5798. Now search in kodi log (the good one I posted today), it is on 1 place lines 1311 to 1317.

At line ~5800 I would expect same text as at line 2364. This one:

2020-03-23 22:42:19.038 T:25447 INFO: AddOnLog: Enigma2 Client: pvr.vuplus - GetHttp Got result. Length: 4335

This leads me to 2 questions:

Why it is not there? It is the same URL and it has already once returned the data.
Why it is fetched twice, isn't there "wrong" loop?

Now have closer look at kodi.log lines 1311 to 1317 (v17):

12:17:50.098 T:2212    INFO: AddOnLog: VU+ / Enigma2 Client: Vu::GetHttpXML Open webAPI with URL: 'http://192.168.43.81:80/web/getservices?sRef=1%3A7%3A1%3A0%3A0%3A0%3A0%3A0%3A0%3A0%3AFROM%20BOUQUET%20%22userbouquet%2Edbe03%2Etv%22%20ORDER%20BY%20bouquet'

And here is the file I got if I put it in chrome (file is XML, only renamed to txt as gui did not like xml):
sat_response_getservices.xml.txt

It got the data and they are of the same size (4335). In the evening I would try to look in the source code, but my suspicion now is reading loop that is not terminating as should, fetching the data multiple times without cleaning 'some' variable prior to next loop. I know it is very vague suspicion, but it is only idea...

IcePlanet · 2020-03-24T12:04:48Z

No rush. I think you are hitting a deadlock scenario somehow. Kodi 17 would help us I'm afraid. Let's focus on fixing this in Kodi 19 and we can work back from there.

I'm sorry to disagree, but based on above I strongly believe this is not related to Kodi, but to the enigma2 plugin.

phunkyfish · 2020-03-24T12:33:00Z

I agree. But I can debug on the kodi 19 version and would always fix in latest first and work backwards 😉

phunkyfish · 2020-03-24T12:35:04Z

I think what is happening that that it is dead locking on two different requests for the same EPG data.

If you could limit the addon to only loading a single bouquet (in addon settings) we could see does it load then as there is less chance for deadlock.

phunkyfish · 2020-03-24T12:42:01Z

But your settings.xml would also help as there are some options there that might help with this.

phunkyfish · 2020-03-24T13:02:04Z

Can you check if this option is enabled?

IcePlanet · 2020-03-24T19:40:17Z

I have tried following sequence:

Kodi 19 (20200322-6b1585df) clean install
Start kodi -> activate debug log -> exit kodi (all OK no log)
Start kodi -> Download enigma2 -> open settings -> Connection -> Change IP to 192.168.43.81 -> OK -> Dialog box of enigma2 client that it needs to restart -> Clicking OK -> Complete kodi freeze, no mouse movement all dead -> Killed via via task manager Log: kodi19_20200322-6b1585df_install.log
Start kodi -> TV -> PVR manager is starting up 0%, wheel is rotating, mouse moving but that's all Log: kodi19_20200322-6b1585df_PVR_0.log
Start kodi -> exit kodi -> complete freeze no react to anything, killed Log:
kodi19_20200322-6b1585df_StartStop.log
Start kodi -> add-ons -> settings -> EPG, but there is NOT screen like yours -> exit kodi -> Complete freeze Log: kodi19_20200322-6b1585df_EPG_Load.log
Screenshot of my settings screen:
Start kodi -> settings -> clean cache on on settings -> clean cache in another settings -> settings -> EPG, but there is NOT screen like yours (same as on previous screenshot) -> exit kodi -> Complete freeze Log: kodi19_20200322-6b1585df_CleanCache_EPG_Load.log

settings XML from pvr.vuplus: settings.xml.pvr.vuplus.txt
settings XML from resources:settings.xml.resources.txt
hope I selected the right ones as there are 6 more settings.xml...

But I have one important news! Yesterday the main TV was off so I have not spotted it, but today the TV was on and for the time kodi was frozen also the receiver was frozen. The audio and video was running, but it did not react to remote. This somehow limits my testing as other family members are complaining :-)

I have absolutely no idea what is the plugin sending to sat box, but installed once more kodi 17 to check and the sat receiver was perfectly reacting the whole time during kodi pvr startup (13s from application start until channels loaded and audio+video running on selected one) and also during watching TV.
From my point of view this is huge difference when one version is able to give audio+video including app start in less than 15s and second is freezing application and also sat receiver.
This somehow supports my idea that the loading is running to unwanted (maybe infinite) loop.

IcePlanet · 2020-03-24T19:43:50Z

Sorry I forgot to enable expert settings, all tests executed with settings "skip initial EPG load" to OFF, now I changed to ON and there is no change, the behavior is the same as described above.

phunkyfish · 2020-03-24T20:20:09Z

Ok, can you try to going to the addon settings and under channels change the TV bouquet fetch mode to Favourites bouquet?

If you don't have a favourites bouquet maybe try Some bouquets and just set one bouquet name that you know.

Then try and start the addon.

phunkyfish · 2020-03-24T22:32:23Z

The correct settings.xml is the one in userdata/addon_data.pvr.vuplus. In case you ever want to reset the settings you can just delete this file and restart kodi and it will be recreated.

IcePlanet · 2020-03-25T15:46:58Z

When I change to some bouquets and enter one of existing it needs to restart -> freeze and after new run when I click TV the situation is still the same...
For desktop I have solution with 17.5 that is lightning fast
For mobile I currently do not have any solution as the older apk files are throwing unknown error when loading vu+ / enigma2 plugin. The only thing I have found is Vu+ player and that you really do not want to use :-(
I tried to look to the code, but even when I managed to learn assembler, C, bash... I never understood object oriented programming, so that is completely strange to me and can not find anything there.

phunkyfish · 2020-03-25T16:08:14Z

How many channels in the bouquet you tried?

Try one with only a few channels then please post the debug log.

I’ve never heard of VU+ Player!

IcePlanet · 2020-03-29T18:15:32Z

The bouquet (Doma) has cca 100 channels in (you can see them (and all other)being loaded in previous logs.
I tried thd requested scenario.
Log from settings change:
kodi_bouquetConfig.log
Log from startup:
kodi.log

Favorities are not present on the receiver so not tried.

I was also not aware of VU+ player, but when Kodi is not running I was searching for 'something' but it is really 'something'... ;-)

PROVRS · 2020-09-06T19:57:20Z

@Developer,
Can you please give an option to set these 2 parameters somehow - getservices?provider=1&picon=1 (located in src/enigma2/Channels.cpp file)
If provider is set to 0, loading times are much faster from the WebIf. If I could compile this myself I would do it with provider=0.

phunkyfish · 2020-11-20T20:53:39Z

@padlee maybe you new security measures similar to the dreambox: #308

padlee · 2020-11-20T21:08:17Z

thank you but i don't see this option in the image...maybe i should revert back to last image

phunkyfish · 2020-11-20T21:17:12Z

Can you post a full debug log @padlee ?

IcePlanet · 2020-11-21T20:29:39Z

Sorry for late answer. Downloaded latest Kodi 19.0-Beta1 (18.9.801). Installed and tested. Here is log: kodi_19.0-Beta1_18.9.801.log

The kodi still shows PVR manager starting at 0%, however do not freezes immediately (but VU+ box freezes immediately). I'm able to exit the TV section of kodi to main menu. When I press power button and select exit the kodi freezes. Must be killed by task manager. After kodi is killed also the VU+box un-freezes and can be used again.
Attached is the debug log. To me seems very similar to the previous ones as it seems to get all the channel, but writes complaint Source read didn't return any data! Hit eof(?) and loads them again.

I have used my post from Mar 24 and searched log for duplicate urls, found some, but have no idea if it correct or not as they have different headers this time.
What is strange is that there is line (multiple times)
CFileCache::Process - Source read didn't return any data! Hit eof(?)
and immediately
after this line there is
AddOnLog: pvr.vuplus: pvr.vuplus - GetHttp Got result. Length

Edit: Forgot to mention that result is the same with skip initial EPG load enabled or disabled (both settings tested)

phunkyfish · 2020-11-21T20:42:06Z

Maybe it’s possible to connect to your Enigma2 device remotely and I can try to debug it from here. Have you used http://gitter.im? We can chat there and see how we progress this.

It appears to hang on reading the EPG data but very hard to tell just from the log exactly why this causes a problem.

klumaker · 2021-06-10T15:33:47Z

I'm also experiencing this problem using kodi 19.1. sometime app will freeze.

phunkyfish · 2021-06-10T16:02:15Z

Does it unfreeze after a few minutes?

klumaker · 2021-06-10T16:18:10Z

no.. it freezes all the time.

areecki · 2021-07-14T21:23:18Z

I found the reason!
I know where is the problem,
I done a test .
So

I opened the dreamboxedit to add new butique "test"
Then u have to go to kodi > edit enigma2 plugin > channels > and please do like bellow image.

save and restart.
problem gone, u can use the only recordings on the enigma, still u can not view channels but i solve it using another app on my android tv > calling DreamView . here i watching my all chanells from my enigma, on kodi im watching recordins

When I open the kodi on the right corner u can see error

On the bellow image u can see the recordings so connections with enigma is established

Better if someone fixit . But problem is during fetching channells from butiques.

phunkyfish · 2021-07-14T21:46:35Z

Can some provide a test connection for me and I can take a look?

Using gitter.im?

Please use a paste site like detailed here: https://kodi.wiki/view/Log_file/Easy

logs in the thread directly make it very hard to read.

Hi @phunkyfish
I don't know but my kodi.log file is too big to past in pastebin, I have tried Pastebin, ubuntu pastebin, and one more.. but no luck..
I don't know where is the exactly the core issue. PVR manager after OSCM update to 19.1 stop to loading( we knows that ).
Yesterday i wait long time and suddenly PVR Manager started to load channels and back to works. For yesterday, I do have a big log file but i can't past it on Pastebin.

Pls make me other suggestion.

Thanks.

Shahin

Try using a GitHub gist. I don’t think they have a size limit.

You could also supply a log without debug switched on. Maybe that will give a hint that would be harder to find in the full debug log.

@IcePlanet @AndKe if you can test the latest version of the addon using a Kodi Nexus nightly then hopefully kodi should start correctly. You would need version 20.3.0 of the add-on to test it.

IcePlanet · 2022-07-31T20:17:27Z

Hello Phunkyfish Very sorry for responding this late, I was away and internet connection was bad. I tested today and see some improvements: 1. Kodi does not freeze - Great 2. Receiver freezes for cca 1 min (the same time I see announcement kodi is starting up) - Not so great but I can live with this 3. When attempting to play channel I see loading wheel in middle, then my cursor is multiplied across whole screen and audio starts, but no video, the top and bottom bars are flashing - Might this be problem of nightly? Best regards and thank you for your great work! Peter

Maybe, but at least we are getting closer. Can you provide a debug log of just playing a channel?

IcePlanet · 2022-08-01T21:38:12Z

Hello Not sure how to limit debug to playing channel only. Attached you can see log of starting kodi, getting to TV, waiting for channels to load (takes cca 1 min) and then playing one channel. Because screenshot does not work sending photo and one video, it is uploaded on host: https://www.transfernow.net/dl/20220801odrTkhg2/T7uaUzvd Should be available 7 days for download, it is simple zip. Thank you Peter

I don't know why but this method works on my windows PC with kodi Omiga.
I am using the "IPTV Simple Client" and it always 0% for PVR service.
There is a method works for watching IPTV. Here are the steps:

Download another client named "Demo PVR Client", and after it installed, you can open "TV" and the 0% issue is gone.
Install the "IPTV Simple Client", after installed, set the IPTV source in the Add-On before launching this add-on.
Then channels of 2 clients are displayed in "TV" page, and both work.
Disable the "Demo PVR Client", the channels of "IPTV Simple Client" left and can still be played from "TV" page.
I tried to remove the "Demo PVR Client", the 0% issue came back.
You can try it on other platforms and other add-ons.

hello, tell me if the problem was solved, I have the same problem but on pvr simple client, and what is very strange is that it stopped working on both raspberries

shahinco · 2024-09-22T06:43:14Z

@111deny111 Yes mu3 file loading issue fixed. Simply client version 20.13.0.1 works

phunkyfish · 2024-10-08T06:35:49Z

@IcePlanet do you still have this problem? Have you tried a kodi 22 nightly build to see if there is any difference?

you might need to clear all PVR data before trying the latest versions of omega, and piers.

some fixes when in for addon-ids that could affect this problem.
