BTV 4.6 Can Record directly to Samba Server!!
I had always heard that BTV 4.6 couldn't record directly to a NAS, but I thought I would give it a try. I set up a folder on the samba server, and mapped a folder to it in WebAdmin. I set up a show to record to this alternate folder, and it worked!!!
This now allows me use terabytes of raid5 storage Jon |

This was added/fixed a few releases ago...

Re: BTV 4.6 Can Record directly to Samba Server!!
The other issue was that BTV didn't expire LiveTV buffers recorded to NAS/Samba devices. No idea if that's been fixed, as I haven't retried since switching back to local-disk only LiveTV buffers.

Re: BTV 4.6 Can Record directly to Samba Server!!
I now use show squeeze to copy nightly to the Samba server. A reboot is scheduled just before morning. This way all my shows are always availbable in viewscape.
Hopefully this will all become unecessary when 4.7 is released with it's drive pooling. |
