[Freevo-users] live_pause starved (Freevo 1.7.4)
Hi all, Looking at freevo's main-x.log file I keep seeing the live_pause plugin logging that it's starved: ... 2008-02-26 18:37:49,295 DEBUG__init__.py (82): Saver saw Data Acquired 2008-02-26 18:37:49,386 DEBUGlive_pause.py (786): Starved!!! count=22678628 starved_count=0 2008-02-26 18:37:49,487 DEBUGlive_pause.py (786): Starved!!! count=22758904 starved_count=0 2008-02-26 18:37:49,592 DEBUGlive_pause.py (786): Starved!!! count=22840496 starved_count=0 2008-02-26 18:37:49,693 DEBUGlive_pause.py (786): Starved!!! count=22922088 starved_count=0 2008-02-26 18:37:49,795 DEBUGlive_pause.py (786): Starved!!! count=23008944 starved_count=0 2008-02-26 18:37:49,899 DEBUGlive_pause.py (786): Starved!!! count=23089220 starved_count=0 2008-02-26 18:37:50,005 DEBUGlive_pause.py (786): Starved!!! count=23177392 starved_count=0 2008-02-26 18:37:50,105 DEBUGlive_pause.py (786): Starved!!! count=23258984 starved_count=0 2008-02-26 18:37:50,207 DEBUGlive_pause.py (786): Starved!!! count=23339260 starved_count=0 ... this keeps happening over and over every second or so. I'm not sure what that's affecting exactly but I also can't pause live tv (hitting the space bar has worked previously, but it's not working at the moment for some reason) and wondered if it's correlated? - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

This probably means that you've either seeked to the end of the buffer (ie your now watching almost live TV) or you have had some signal quality issues which has meant Xine has read more of the buffer than should normally happen. The log messages are just an indication that live_pause couldn't read any bytes from the buffer, once the starved_count gets to 5 it will pause for 2 seconds to refill the buffer. These log messages aren't really anything to worry about. As for pause not working, I have you left the channel paused for a long time say enough for the buffer to completely fill up? If so you won't be able to pause as you have no where to put the new data. Try seeking forward a bit and then try pausing.

Not sure why though as we have a stand-alone digital/HD receiver which works perfectly all the time... maybe it's the drivers/firmware for the tuner card.
