RE: Timeshift Support - basco - 2012-12-10

what are the filenames like?
maybe i can find -name my harddisk Wink



RE: Timeshift Support - Memphiz - 2012-12-11

see post #5 of this thread ^^


RE: Timeshift Support - basco - 2012-12-11

read basco read! Wink
is there a threshold at which tvheadend starts buffering to disk? or does it start writing immediately at 'pause' press?



RE: Timeshift Support - _BJ1 - 2012-12-11

Same problem like basco. Version of tvheadend is the same described in post #12. XBMC is the latest build from today (RC). What I'm doing wrong?

Code:
git clone https://github.com/tvheadend/tvheadend.git
cd tvheadend
git checkout feature/timeshift
./configure --enable-timeshift
make
make install

Gone to Configuration -> General and setting the Path for Timeshift /srv/Timeshift (which exists), pause works but nothing appears. No files are written.

Check the filesystem permissions. The user under which tvheadend runs has to be the owner of that folder and needs write access to it.


RE: Timeshift Support - basco - 2012-12-12

that does not explain why it still works?

ps aux | grep tvh
hts 11050 7.8 0.3 1112104 32288 ? Ssl 05:06 39:50 tvheadend -f -u hts -g video

i did a:
chown hts:hts /mnt/storage/timeshift

i will check this evening if it makes any difference


RE: Timeshift Support - Frank-NL - 2012-12-12

Should be chown hts:video /mnt/storage/timeshift I guess?


RE: Timeshift Support - basco - 2012-12-12

i don't know. i changed it to hts:video. i'll test it this evening.


RE: Timeshift Support - basco - 2012-12-13

tested it....
no go.
i'm currently time shifting over 5 minutes and no file has been written.

did a

find -name tvh-*

on my hdd, no files found

no timeshift.... when ./configure --enable-timeshift


RE: Timeshift Support - Memphiz - 2012-12-18

git checkout feature/timeshift

before you start building.


RE: Timeshift Support - basco - 2012-12-18

git checkout feature/timeshift
M debian/changelog
Already on 'feature/timeshift'



RE: Timeshift Support - basco - 2012-12-18

ok, tested it with previous tvheadend.
i can now confirm that in tis version timeshift works:
tvheadend_3.3.199~g759b5b1-dirty~precise_amd64.deb

in this version of tvheadend (latest) timeshift does not work:
tvheadend_3.3.207~g8276b58-dirty~precise_amd64.deb

built like this:

git checkout feature/timeshift
./configure --enable-timeshift
make
./Autobuild.sh -t precise-amd64
dpkg -i ../tvheadend_3.3.207~g8276b58-dirty~precise_amd64.deb



RE: Timeshift Support - basco - 2012-12-19

anyone else tried this?


RE: Timeshift Support - opdenkamp - 2012-12-19

i haven't used the packaging stuff in there, but it works fine when you compile manually
