November 21, 201213 yr Could it be a permissions issue? I thought it could be as I had an odd permissions issue that caused the same problem as you when I ran tvheadend on ubuntu. But as you're root??? All I can suggest is to make sure you're using the latest tvheadend, and maybe try installing on your cache drive?
November 21, 201213 yr That's a good point I really should have put a sys log up on this thread to see if someone could spot something. The server is up and running right now without tvheadend on the flash and my other half is feeling ill and in the middle of a chick flick marathon!! Next time I get the chance to fiddle, I'll repeat the install and post up a sys log. Thanks so far.
November 23, 201213 yr Tried the latest tvheadend unstable on my Ubuntu Server and same problem services names are blank but muxes are all there. So the problem lies in the unstable branch. Did we ever get a plain old 3.2.18 tvheadend package file ? Kryspy

November 27, 201213 yr What folder does tvheadend look for the xml file for guide data in unRAID? Any config files need to be edited? By the way the 3.3 beta branch is the cause of the no services bug. Any chance of an official 3.2.18 release for unRAID? Kryspy
November 28, 201213 yr Latest from git: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/49442039/tvheadend-88067f8-i486-1_PTr.txz MD5 b613fa921887af9e0d2f83e849d1da1f Stable 3.2.18 https://dl.dropbox.com/u/49442039/tvheadend-40a8920-i486-1_PTr.txz MD5 83677dc596958910766bfb17ea6d666e
November 28, 201213 yr What folder does tvheadend look for the xml file for guide data in unRAID? Any config files need to be edited? You must copy the tv_grab_file from the plugins/tvheadend to /usr/bin for example A link is not working!
December 14, 201213 yr fyi- news over at xbmc forum: http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=147002 Tvheadend now has live pause and timeshifting available in an unstable git branch. I have not built it due to the low WAF, but I thought would pass it along in case anyone wants to play with it.
December 15, 201213 yr Thats great news. Hopefully it'll get into master soon enough the piotr can build for us. Also, once limetech release new version of the server software piotr can update the bz images as well with all the drivers and media sources you guys need
January 4, 201313 yr Alright guys, looks like I need some help. I've tried following the steps and using setups from Botez, but I'm running into the same problem as jj0076: " Warning: passthru(): Cannot execute a blank command in /usr/local/emhttp/plugins/webGui/template.php on line 431 " when I got to tower/settings/tvheadend. I've been running rc8a for quite some time now (months), never had v4.7 (started with one of the 5 Betas, then up to rc3, then rc8a). System is operational. I'm trying to connect to an HDHomeRun Dual (not the prime), so I replaced the stock bzimage and bzroot in rc8a with the ones in this post (unraid-rc8a-media-tree-2), and used the latest Stable release of TVHeadend from piotrasd. No luck. The plugin is installed, but nothing. Am I missing something? (I am a Linux n00b so please explain). I've attached the latest syslog (I think) if that helps. syslog-20130103-214834.zip
January 4, 201313 yr Higs I don't see anything in that syslog that shows the plugin is ever installed. Can you restart unraid and repost the syslog.
January 4, 201313 yr Botez, Thanks for the review. I found the same thing when I looked through the syslog, but when I watch it boot up (I've attached a monitor, keyboard, mouse), it shows that the package is installed right after my Plex package (but nothing in the syslog). And the syslog attached is the syslog after a couple reboots. But I can try again if you think that might help. *UPDATE*: I did a reboot and have attached the latest syslog, but again, nothing about TVHeadend in the syslog, but when I watched it boot up, it showed that the Plex plugin was installed after ACPI Daemon, and that TVHeadend plugin was installed after Plex. And Plex is working. My TVHeadend and Plex plugins are in /boot/extra (is that part of the problem?). syslog-20130104-090238.zip
January 4, 201313 yr Try putting the plugin in /boot/config/plugins (at least that's where all of mine are located).
January 5, 201313 yr Botez, I've made some progress, and I think I see a very distant light of the very long tunnel. Much more to do I think/fear. First of, I had only downloaded the latest pkg from piotr, from a couple days ago. I tried 3 different locations, all seemed to show that the TXZ package was installed, but like we discussed, nothing in my syslog. Finally I went back and added WW's PLG and I finally had success in seeing TVHeadend at my settings page. (I guess being the Linux n00b I didn't/don't understand the difference in the PLG and TXZ files). Secondly, I had already updated the bzroot and bzimage files (I'm running rc8a) using the files that piotr posted on 9/25/12. So when I go to settings page, it shows: System Requirements: WARNING MEDIA Tree: Detected DVB Tuner: NOT DETECTED TVHeadend login/password: Accepted So, I believe that my system does not have the HDHomerun files necessary, as I followed other posts, my lsmod listing does not show anything for HDHomerun. What step(s) am I missing? Do the HDHomerun files come as part of the bzroot and bzimage files or what? (Again, sorry for the Linux n00b issues, and thanks for helping!). Finally, possibly a persmissions issue, but the tvheadend site on my server seems to be up on port 9981, but it asks for user/pass. I tried my normal root for the server, but no luck. Am I missing something?
January 5, 201313 yr So I still have no clue how to get xmltv to work for North America ATSC service. I'd appreciate a detailed walkthrough of the steps involved including GO script settings. thanks in advance, Kryspy
January 5, 201313 yr Hello, I'm using the tvheadend plugin with Afatech AF9013 DVB-T in an unraid server plus 5.0 rc4. Everything works great, but it seems like the adapter is always on, even though the there's no streaming done most of the day... Is it possible to set power saving? I couldn't find such options in the configuration. Thank you!
January 5, 201313 yr Higs I don't think that the bzimage/bzroot that piotr posted has the hdhomerun drivers in it, which is why I had to compile those in myself and is why this isn't working for you. I described the steps to do so a few pages back and while it was a good learning experience, it's also a bit daunting if you have zero Linux experience. Anyways, I can post the bzimage and bzroot I am using later tonight when I am at my computer and hopefully using those will get things working for you.
January 5, 201313 yr latest tvheadend with Timeshift https://dl.dropbox.com/u/49442039/tvheadend-2798896-i486-git_PTr.txz MD5 8c29faed6d980c62159c1864d47dbc54 Latest master https://dl.dropbox.com/u/49442039/tvheadend-9247faa-i486-git_PTr.txz MD5 490482de614f46ce32318d7e942483cc cache for icons - enabled in both bersion Is it possible to set power saving? I couldn't find such options in the configuration. Like on screen I don't think that the bzimage/bzroot that piotr posted has the hdhomerun drivers in it, which is why I had to compile those in myself and is why this isn't working for you. Yeep my image dont have support for hdhomerun (only that why beacuse i dont have any device for test)
January 5, 201313 yr Be advised there are some problems with 3.2 and 3.3 regarding the close device handling option that manifests itself as a time expired error. I believe this is assigned to be fixed in 3.4
January 5, 201313 yr Be advised there are some problems with 3.2 and 3.3 regarding the close device handling option that manifests itself as a time expired error. I believe this is assigned to be fixed in 3.4 I think depends of mainboard and tuners hardware - some device have problem with IDLE state
January 5, 201313 yr Botez, Thanks. I'll try your version of bzroot and bzimage when you post. Otherwise I can try to follow your directions/steps from the earlier post about building my own. Thanks again for the help!

Anyways, I can post the bzimage and bzroot I am using later tonight when I am at my computer and hopefully using those will get things working for you. I'm also interested in trying a build that includes the hdhomerun driver, so it would be great if you could share this. It would be even better if there were plans to eventually include this in the official plugin as well, hdhomerun tuners are very popular devices.
