RFC - bring back fast channelswitch #7873
Conversation
My findings: |
Seems some users are affected too: |
this will break other formats. you only can skip streaminfo for mpegts live streams. |
Thanks for clarifying, I thought it would break something... |
what reason? |
I don't know. |
investigating is the first step towards a possible solution. as long as we don't understand it, we can't fix it |
I did already try to find out how it is supposed to work. Do you know where kodi detects the video format of a stream or where I can start looking? |
most work is done in CDVDDemuxFFmpeg::Open |
I will dig into it and see what I find. |
I think this is obsolete. |
We need to upgrade to OpenELEC 5.95 in order to fix a problem.
When testing I found that the channel switching is up to 5sec again.
I know the code is there for a reason, so maybe we can discuss possibilities to bring it back again.
