Continuing troubleshooting:

Then selecting watch TV. . . Crash  And here are the last few lines, re-typed since my other computer is frozen!
 
Handle Gopstart, gopset not set, syncing positionMap
filling postion map from 3 to 5
SyncPositionMap, liveTV from Encoder: 6 entries
SyncPositionMap, new Totframes: 75, newlength: 2, posMap size: 6
Stream initial keyframedist: 15.
