DVR / Live TV not working with Hauppauge Digital TV Tuner for Xbox One

General Discussions Plex Features

greetings folks,

i’m having serious issues getting this device to work as advertised… hoping i can have some direction on what i can try.

I will try and list some relevant details :

  1. I have purchased a http://www.hauppauge.com/site/products/data_xboxtv.html
  2. it is recognized and seems to scan available channels properly under plex. (i get some 12 networks, which is great) - although it does come up as WinTV-HVR-955Q in plex
  3. i have latest and greatest plex media server (currently 1.7.2.3878) - under Ubuntu LTS 16.04.02
  4. i have added Hauppauge repo, and followed instructions from : http://www.hauppauge.com/site/support/linux.html

Whenever i try to record, or view ‘live’ on my phone it is all full of errors.

Are there any log files or outputs of commands i could add on here to make this easier to debug?

2

hmmm - I just noticed DVR Beta / Live TV forum subsection - should i repost this there?

Did you ever have any luck with this issue? I am having the same problems.

That is not up to date. You need version 1.7.2.x for DVR/Live TV support.

This fixed it for me…
Despite the in browser settings saying my server version was up to date, it clearly was not. I was still in version 1.5.5.x. As soon as I manually updated, my Hauppauge stick was found immediately. Hopefully everything else is smooth sailing from here on out.

The recordings look all weird, plex bails on play attempts. Logs full of errors :confused:

here is a sample of Plex Tuner Log file :

:neutral:

this is what it looked like on my phone :

6

Updated Plex just in case there were some fixes for DVR stuff related to this.
But alas, sad to report Version 1.7.3.3937 still works same way.

7

I’m having the same problem on my windows 10 pc. The “setup dvr” option only finds my network (hd homerun) but not the Hauppauge usb stick.

8

i know this is old but im using WinTV-HVR-955Q with the drivers installed and my plex cant see it. did anyone find a solution??? it does work with nextpvr though

9

I’m getting http_streamer_t: http write errors a lot as well. Half of recording fail. Using the latest plex via plex pass and hauppauge wintv dualhd…

10

Getting similar " http write " here on Win Ten too. Anyone make any progress on this? It seems to be a permissions type issue

11

sorry guys, i am unable to help here as i’ve changed how i installed my 955Q. for what it’s worth, it does work for me now, but… it’s running on a raspberry 3 with tvheadend, and connected on plex via tvhproxy.

12

Also tried this with NVIDIA SHILED TV and WinTV dualHD and it seems the error cause is the same http write error (did not check logs, but the UI pop-up error is the same). 1.9.4…

13

I used “Transcoder temporary directory” in Settings - Transcoder to save trancoding outside of my SSD. After removing this setting Plex DVR seems to be able to play DVR again.

Of course, I cannot use plex to cache stuff on my SSD.

I deleted Transcode folder and then re-created empty Transcode folder with plex:plex rights. Then edited:

/etc/fstab

I added:

Mount plex transcode to backup hdd

/var/lib/plexmediaserver/Library/Application\040Support/Plex\040Media\040Server/Cache/Transcode /media/hdd/plex/temp none _netdev,bind 0 0

sudo mount -a

Now Live DVR is working and it saves trancodes to HDD instead of SDD.

Used this as reference: https://support.plex.tv/hc/en-us/articles/200250347-Transcoder

Update: Live DVR works but Scheduled Recording fails to http write error… (using HDD or SSD it still fails)

Update: Live DVR stopped working as well on certain channels. Also, playing .ts recordings from Library fails too.
