Thank you, waylo. I got the same suggestion from the staff there. I'll give it a shot.
... and yeah, I still need to solve the tuning problem, that's probably highest on the list at this point. The folks over at Silicondust are determined to make this happen, and let's face it, this could give SageTV some legs for some time yet. |

Are you sure your firewalls are open appropriately? OpenDCT does ask automatically I believe, but good to double check, if it's a brand new install.
Can you post your sagetv logs also? While you're troubleshooting, I would switch the port back to 9000 as I believe that's a prerequisite for how OpenDCT works. Do you have any other HDHR devices you can use to troubleshoot your new install?

Stuttering
I recently put together a new Linux server and am using OpenDCT to tune from my HDHR Prime. Comcast is my cable provider.
Shows broadcast in 480 record fine. Shows broadcast in 1080 stutter and are unwatchable. I thought I solved this issue by changing the format of the recording drives from NTFS (the drivers were previously used on a Windows Sage server) to ext4 but alas, it didn't work. I've searched through this thread and from what I can gather I *think* I should be using the FFMPEG consumer. Is this correct? What specific properties do I need to edit to use this consumer? (There are several that have similar names.) What is the best way to rule out drive performance as a contributing factor? Sorry for the silly questions. In the past OpenDCT "just worked" and I never had to mess with it. Tom

How strange. My first run at this was via OpenDCT with no antenna connected, worked on it for about 6 hours on Saturday but would always get a "no signal" in SageTV. When selecting tuners in SageTV I do see the short tuner name (SD) and longer tuner name (OpenDCT), and I have eventually tried both with the same results (no signal). I'll PM you an email address and if you're willing to share your OpenDCT properties file and SageTV properties file, I'd sure appreciate it.

FYI, here's with the Quatro installed. Right now I'm recording 4 streams (2 Premium TV and 2 OTA) on the Quatro for the next few hours with channel changes as well as back-to-back to see what happens, but am able to preview in setup, tune live TV and watch parts of the recordings in progress OK. Note that I did assign a tuner to be OTA (native SageTV tuner device) or streaming (OpenDCT device), but not both.
Are you using OpenDCT for anything else like a Prime? Even if so maybe let it rebuild the properties file for you from scratch. The only thing I've fiddled with manually in the opendct.properties is the consumer type on my Prime devices. Did you do a channel scan on the HDHR web GUI? I think for the Prime I had to do that for some reason. Not sure about the Duo / Quatro, but did out of habit.

Thanks, Karyl. I've done all the suggestions at this point except review the SageTV log closely. Once I stop banging my head against the wall, I'll get back into this. It can't be this complicated.
After reviewing the SageTV logs, I believe I'll install one of the openDCT HDHR quatro tuners on my older SageTV server instead of this test machine. I'm wondering if I'm missing something with the clean Sage V9 install on a clean Win7 install. |

Determining I/O issues could be as easy as looking at the logs right after recording something that didn't record well. I don't think I saw you post any of them.

Any of you that have the Premium TV service/device working in SageTV, do you also have a cable card tuner, and it an HDHR or Ceton? |

I did not do anything Special ... I just removed the Quatro from SageTV .. made sure I did a scan in the web-page... I then just added the quatro as a digital tuner using OPENDCT ... Selected the PremiumTV lineup in Schedules direct and that was it. No Scan or nothing needed. I do not recommend using the tuner for both OTA and Premium TV .. can lead to missed recordings.

This system is running on a Win 7 64bit laptop, fresh Win 7 and Sage install. The Ceton tuners will appear as they are running on my primary SageTV server on the same network. |

I don't think you have a disk I/O problem from that log. It looks like maybe you're one of the few people with issues using HTTP streaming from the HDHomeRun. Try this:
1. Stop OpenDCT service 2. Change hdhr.allow_http_tuning=true to hdhr.allow_http_tuning=false in opendct.properties 3. Start OpenDCT service

1. Stop OpenDCT 2. Open atsc_hdhomerun_10757234.properties 3. You'll notice the channels are make up of comma delimited values. Change the value of columns 7 and 8 from 0 to 1 for non-ATSC entries. e.g. channel.1010=1010,1010,true,QVC,http\://192.168.254.213\:5004/auto/v1010,,0,0,,0,UNKNOWN,false to channel.1010=1010,1010,true,QVC,http\://192.168.254.213\:5004/auto/v1010,,1,1,,0,UNKNOWN,false 4. Start OpenDCT This might be enough to get around the problem. I'm seeing this log entry: 16:44:49.091 [SageTVRequestHandler-96:HDHomeRun HDHR5-4US Tuner 10757234-0] ERROR HDHRNativeCaptureDevice - The channel '1402' does not have a frequency on the lineup 'atsc_hdhomerun_10757234'. and I can't figure out where in the code this is being logged from which is really bugging me. The error should only happen in ClearQAM mode. ATSC doesn't check for this kind of thing because we can derive it from the channel requested, yet we see a log entry contradicting that.
