SD streams wrong aspect ratio and stuttering - InifiteStream - 2015-11-13

Hi,

I've installed KODI 15 on my Amazon FireTV box and stick.
On both the PVR Addon has the following problem with my new vuplus solo 4K as server:

The HD channels seem to play fine while all SD channels are in 4:3 aspect ratio instead of 16:9.
What makes things worse is that the streams are stuttering that bad that it is impossible to watch them.

Any ideas?

I have the same video stuttering on my VU+ solo 2 for half of my SD channels.
It started in version 15 of Kodi in version 14 it was working fine.
This add-on only gives the stream to Kodi so I expect the error to be in the Kodi video player and not the add-on.
Could you post a debug log so a developer can have a look I doubt he can do anything without a debug log.

Hi,

thank you for your fast reply.
Since I'm new to KODI and FireTV, where do I find the log files?

You can find them on the below wiki page:

I created a debug log of the SD stuttering in the below log. I hoop a developer can find something wrong.

First, you have sooooo many connection problems in your network that the log is almost unreadable.

Second, I don't have the time to read almost 16k lines of text when most refers to loading channels info. 3493 channels? Really?

My advice: solve your network problems first. There's more than a few Rolleyes lines complaining about not being able to reach the backend and/or the Internet.

After that, configure the addon to only load one channel group. Enable debug log, restart Kodi so we get a clean debug log, let addon initialize properly, play problematic channel, stop channel, exit Kodi, upload debug log.

Then I can help you. In the meantime, I can't find anything wrong testing the addon here.

Same issue for me, i also find playback from the HD channels a little jittery, guess the Fire TV can't deal with a 50i feed very well.

@h.udo I upgraded to latest Milhouse OpenELEC test builds and all my stuttering/jittery in the PVR streams are gone.
Anny ETA on when you are delivering your redesigned version of the add-on ?
