Hi Sergey, My VDR setup started having a bit of a fit last night, and has been doing this for the last 8 hours (no changes my end) Before I restart VDR, any tests I can do to diagnose? It seems to have started after a live stream (Kodi/VNSI) + a recording stopped - here's the VDR-related log from where the connection started to where the problem seemed to start It may be that the VNSI plugin is keeping the receiver active ? (the VNSI-Error: cxSocket::read error occurs 2 or 3 times a day - not unusual, nor is any other log entry) Jun 24 01:12:59 ha-server vdr: [8690] loading /etc/vdr/plugins/vnsiserver/allowed_hosts.conf Jun 24 01:12:59 ha-server vdr: [8690] VNSI: Client with ID 75 connected: 10.0.0.90:52606 Jun 24 01:12:59 ha-server vdr: [15789] VNSI: Welcome client 'XBMC Media Center' with protocol version '8' Jun 24 01:12:59 ha-server vdr: [15789] VNSI: LiveStreamer::Close - close Jun 24 01:12:59 ha-server vdr: [15789] VNSI: close video input ...
