Streams not working

[jabba200]

Hey,

Im trying to stream tvuplayer to xbmc. The stream starts plays for a few minutes then shuts off. Im using xtv latest build, july svn of xbmc through a wired network. I watched football all through last season using this method, but now its kinda hard to watch a match if you have to restart the stream every 5 minutes.

here is my log file, I noticed lots of errors and would like some help trying to figure some of them out

Till someone who knows comes along I would try using a diffrent skin :)

[pancho]

i'm having exactly the same problem.
i'm using an august 07 build of t3ch xbmc and stream tvuplayer from my pc with a .stream file i created as explained on this site:
h*tp://www.xboxmediacenter.com/wiki/index.php?title=HOW-TO:_Play_Free_Streaming_TV

it buffers, then streams fine for a couple of minutes, then crashes.
if i restart the stream i get exactly the same result.

does anybody know how to fix this?

I have tried tvuplayer om my computer (in Windows operating-system) and it does exacly the same thing there so my bet it that the problem is the stream and not XBMC. How about if you try a more reliable stream, try one from the XBMC-TV stream pack http://www.op9.net/latest/148/xbmc-tv-round-v
