I am trying to use hdhomerun (HDHR3-US), tvheadend and xbmc (frodo) to watch clearQAM channels on a wired, gigabit network. tvheadend is running on linux, xbmc on windows 7. When I watch TV using "HDHomeRun Quick TV" on Windows it more or less works fine without any interruption. However, when I use tvheadend+xbmc, there are constant interruptions. I get frequent "Continuity counter errors". This surprises me because hdhomerun_config seems to be telling me I have a good signal, I'm plugged directly into cable, and QuickTV doesn't seem to suffer as a result of these counter errors. When it's really bad I also get "Transport error indicator" warnings. I don't know what these warnings are telling me.
I would appreciate any guidance on how to troubleshoot this. I am at a loss. Log files below. In the example below the video constantly looks "jerky", in a very rithmatic fashion. Other channels don't behave as bad as this, however they will have regular interruptions.
Thanks!
