Live Streaming not working

Hello Guys

I recently installed Argus TV on a Windows 7 Guest on my Ubuntu 14.04 KVM Host with a Terratec Cinergy H7 connected via USB Passthrough.

Everything seems working fine. It finds all the channels and also manual recording works. But when I try to connect my XBMC to the Argus TV Server then I see all channels but when I select one, I get an "Unknown Error". But when I check the permissions on the folders, everything seems to be correct.

Here the last lines from my recorder.log:

Code: Select all

Was this problem ever resolved? Was there any reaction to this post? We are now 18 months later!

I have now a similar problem. Everything seems correctly configured. I use Kodi (16RC3) as frontend. It correctly sees all my configured channels. But when I start one, after a long pause, I get an Argus: Unknown Error! The Kodi log shows no errors.

The Argus Recorder log shows some errors, but it takes a specialist to make something out of it.

Help!

TIA,

Bart

I am new on this forum and it seems to work a little bit different than others.

I tried to upload the recorder.log with my first post, but it somehow failed. I will try here again.

I get the message: The extension log is not allowed. I don't know what that means.

Can you give me some instructions how to do it?

Thanks,

Bart

P.S. I put it on Google Drive: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0Bya7T ... 3FzbWpMR1E

Can somebody PLEASE say something about this?

I have several problems with my HTPC,and I need an alternative to DVBlink to help identify the source of the problems.

Thanks,

Bart

I'd love to help. But using Google is not my thing. I need to login with my google account and don't like that to much.

Hopefully you can get them posted here

OK, I understand. I did not know that you need a Google account to be able to access such shares.

But I am not able to upload via this forum, because I get the error "The extension log is not allowed." Like I said earlier, I have no idea what that means.

So: How do I upload a log file?

Regards,

Bart

Put the logs in a zip file and upload that.

OK, thanks. Here it is ...

Maybe I did not think of that, because the Kodi team does not like zip's.

Because of several other problems which were possibly caused by Windows 10, I have now gone back to Windows 7.
I also did a full reconfiguration of Argus TV, I did not restore a previous backup.

But I still get the same error: Unknown error.

If I am doing something wrong, I am at least consistent!
