Hello, i have been XBMC-pvr on several machines in my house, they are all connected to my Tvheadend server, Unfortionatly the server is almost running out of simultanious users for tv streams, i only have 3 DVB-s cards installd at the moment, but i have a secound Tvheadend server running on the net for two other users.
My BIG question is: Is it posible to make the Tvheadend addon search for a secund server to supply the tv stream i want?
Like :
server 1 = IP adress Username Password - - - - - - - - -
server 2 = IP adress Username Password ----------- - - -
Server 3. ....
If the reply from the first server is: In use by other user then the addon will try the next on the list for available streams.
I don't know any programming, but i assume it would be possible, but i don't know how to do it.
This could also be usefull if you only hav two machines, 1 with 1 DVB card and maybe another with two.
If one of the cards is occupied with recording, the addon will try asking the second machine for the channel......
I do not know how this would look like, if it should ask for a program ID or frequence or just the channel name, but i think it would be possible or ?
I also have another ide' i do not know how to do....
Since the TVheadend does not support pause, wold it not be possible to let XBMC handle the stream, like buffering until you push play again, when leaving the program trhe cash is cleaned.
Just an Ide' please give me a comment if i'm TOO FAR OUT
