@Digard - I am unable to reproduce this using the current 'bleeding edge' version compiled from scratch from GitHub.

Can you please provide more details on the streaming profile that you are using prior to changing to pass?

First observation is that Profile is not set properly on the Codec Profiles used before you switch to pass. You need to select something different than 0. Can you print screen the codec profile settings?

I'd love to, but I seem unable to remember my admin password for tvheadend. I tried whatever I could, to no avail. Is there a way to start the service with a no-password-option?

Thanks a bunch!

The screenshot is attached. I have, however, never made any modification during the last year, and before this didn't happen. Just to mention it.

I played with this, in order to explore it.
I don't necessarily have to select 'pass'. Sometimes it crashes on its own after some seconds, after displaying "An unknown error occurred". At other times, it states a connection problem, but remains up. Then it requires me to select 'pass' explicitly (despite of it being the default value) to make it crash.
