Same issue using pms on linux. Do you have the same error I am getting: LiveTV: Failed to initialize VAAPI connection: -1 (unknown libva error) It happened when I upgraded my PMS version. Everything works natively on the device and I can get and scan for channels. I have deleted and recreated the DVR multiple times. I am convinced it is a recent PMS bug.
I see the following unique log lines:
