Network recovery issue

Opened this issue · 3 comments

This issue happens on windows but I’m sure it happens on other operating systems. When I reboot my router or we have a network outage, the program / script loses connection and when internet returns I have to actually restart the script in order to return service.

It’s a bit pick issue, however it would be nice if it recovered its self and continued on. Let me know if this is possible, or maybe something I need to live with.

Thanks for your work.

You have an interesting issue and I am curious if it is your network or locast2plex. I have a refactored version of locast2plex and would like you to try and see if it happens with that version. It is located at https://github.com/rocky4546/tvheadend-locast/releases/. The Wiki has most of the instructions you should need. In general, I would agree that the script should not need to be restarted in order to play something; however, whatever it is currently playing should terminate.

Does your version still have the every other second buffer issue ?

By removing the dependency on ffmpeg, it may have removed the buffering issue as well as reduced the CPU usage.
