AH spoke too soon, while no continuity errors, tvh crashed after awhile: [ 5138.173447] tvh:mtimer[16313]: segfault at 10 ip 0000559fa6e59e44 sp 00007f57d446b9d0 error 4 in tvheadend[559fa6bc4000+cce000] All this just to get plex hw transcode hehe

Deffo not signal as running tvheadend on another machine works fine (hdhomerun as source is very useful for this type of trouble shooting!).. Think I've just narrowed it down to something in my synology SYSTEM SOFTWARE setup Originally I was running 1.03b 3617. I created a new boot usb stick with 1.04b 918+ booted up and migrated disks using the same pat no (but 918+). reinstalled tvheadend (as 918 requires apollow not broadwell) and found continuity problems. Swapping back to original boot usb (1.03b / 3617), migrating again, and reinstalling tvheadend all was well no continuity errors... Swapped back again to 1.04b 918+ this morning and migrated again to try docker tvheadend - same problems with continuity errors... So just tried 1.04b 918+ (same stick) but with a totally fresh install (well, I mean clean) hard disk and native tvh now works fine. So looks like something being left over on the system partion causing problems. Haven't a clue where to start there though lol!

Ah poop, just got chance to try running tvh in the docker but still same continuity errors I'm wondering if it's because I'm running the 918+ image on Haswell cpu (i3 4150) ?

Ah yes just double checked and haswell does have FMA3 Thanks!

Sorry for the hijack, so it would be unwise to use the 918/1.04b loader with a haswell i3 4150 setup as the synology software may at some point execute an FM3A instruction which the i3 4150 doesn't have?

Thanks, that sounds a good idea

That's great info, thanks again JMMR, you helped me sort the tbs dvb open source linux modules a couple of years back One final question, what xpenology loader/model are you running? I presume 1.04b/918+ to get the hw transcode?

I'm using a hdhomerun quad (rather than tbs pcie card) now so should be easier as no mapping all network Quick question, is the docker image platform dependant - ie different images for broadwell, bromolow, appollolake etc? Also, I presume I'll be able to map a drive into the container so I can copy my existing tvheadend config files (dvr files etc) and map to //volume1/video/TV_Recording etc? Cheers for the info JMRR

Hi! Just switched from 3617xs to the 918+ loader to take advantage of the hardware encoding for plex. That works great BUT now getting lots of continuity errors in tvheadend. Not the hardware as nothing else changed - just the boot stick and reinstall appollolake version of tvh. Googled but couldn't turn up anything... Anyone have any ideas? Anyone using tvheadend ok with the 918+ loader ? Cheers!

Hi! How can I configure for 18 disk ports? My 3617sx 1.03 works fine with synoinf.conf: esataportcfg="0x0" usbportcfg="0xc0000" internalportcfg="0x3ffff" maxdisks="18" but with the 1.04b 918+ loader it doesn't show more than 16 slots? Thanks!

Bump!

Hi! I'm trying to compile dsm 6.2 for broadwell with the drm intel graphics (goal is to get intel quick going for hardware transcoding on plex). The build is failing though, any ideas anyone? The output where it fails: CC [M] drivers/gpu/drm/drm_drv.o drivers/gpu/drm/drm_drv.c: In function ‘drm_stub_open’: drivers/gpu/drm/drm_drv.c:861:2: error: implicit declaration of function ‘replace_fops’ [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration] replace_fops(filp, new_fops); ^ cc1: some warnings being treated as errors scripts/Makefile.build:308: recipe for target 'drivers/gpu/drm/drm_drv.o' failed make[3]: *** [drivers/gpu/drm/drm_drv.o] Error 1 scripts/Makefile.build:455: recipe for target 'drivers/gpu/drm' failed make[2]: *** [drivers/gpu/drm] Error 2 scripts/Makefile.build:455: recipe for target 'drivers/gpu' failed make[1]: *** [drivers/gpu] Error 2 Makefile:800: recipe for target 'drivers' failed make: *** [drivers] Error 2 Cheers!

Just checking as thinking of switching from 3617 to 918 😀

Hiya bearcat, Yes indeed I do have a Plex pass...

Booted with the D918 loader with a couple of spare disks and checked that h/w transcode in plex does work on my hardware: msi eco h97 mboard haswell i3/4150 All seems ok, hw transcode does work (confirmed by dev/dri present, (hw) symbol present and cpu usage minimal) D918 loader 1.04 with dsm 6.2 supports my onboard nic, sybase 4port sata and sas 8 port controller. Are there any restrictions with D918? Software that won't work or other hardware restrictions? Can it support more than 16 drives (I currently have 18 ports) ? Is Vbox ok on it (forgot to try!) ? Thanks!
