Audio/Video sync issues

[markcs]

I'm having problems with the sync when watching live TV. I think the issue starts when I see Continuity counter errors in my TVHeadend log ( MPEG2VIDEO @ #512 Continuity counter error).

My understanding is that this should not cause the audio and video to become out of sync, but it does. It don't see this if I stream using VLC.

I've found this too, similar issues with continuity counter errors causing the audio to desync.

Other than this issue playback is far superior to playing it in plex via Antennas so that's frustrating - so close to being perfect.

@TheDiamondPicks are you still working on this/fork?

[TheDiamondPicks]

Not at this stage sorry. I've moved from TVheadend to Plex, so I'm not really as focused on this, sorry. However I don't know much about ExoPlayer and video in general, so I doubt I could really do anything about it anyway.

[danielloader]

Fair enough, I would have moved too but my DVB sticks have no windows drivers (Xbox tuners at that), works well on linux and TVH though.

Can't move my plex install to linux as the quicksync experience on linux sucks quality wise. So bit stuck to use this as a bridging project. Hoping someone is able to maintain the project though.
