Where could I see the DVR beta release history notes?
Recently premium channels will play for like 30 seconds to maybe a minute and I will get a message âconnection lostâ on any of my iPads or the channel just freezes. Turned on MSNBC and it probably did this 10 times in less than 5 minutes. I am not sure if the problem is the channels DVR service or the premium channels.
Almost sounds like the demo channels. Did your tuners revert or anything? You might be able get to the tunerâs channel lineup from here: http://my.hdhomerun.com/
Nope, they are not in demo mode. For some reason they are just freezing and I am not sure where to troubleshoot the issue.
Does it happen in their app? Does it happen in Channels for OTA channels?
From what it appears, it seems it might be also happening on the antenna channels also. So I am not sure if an update on the Channels DVR is causing this, but I am running this on a Synology NAS and this wasnât happening until just recently. Any ideas why this would be happening? Thank you.
FWIW, I am still seeing the micro pauses on the premium channels. I haven't really had time to look at it until today. I've done some minimal testing and I see a correlation between the occurrence of micro pauses and the use of tuner sharing. Turning off tuner sharing appears to eliminate the pauses completely while turning it back on causes them to happen within 10-15 seconds of tuning a channel.
It's also worth noting that the logs do not show any evidence at all of the pauses.
My environment is completely Apple. 8 ATVs and a Mac Mini as the DVR server. Everything is wired except one ATV and most are running through the same 48 port switch.
I'll continue to test and report back any significantly different findings. In the meantime, perhaps the tuner sharing component will spark a thought as to the root cause.
