RE: Timeshift Support - basco - 2012-12-21 i'm using HTS Tvheadend 3.3.216~g6755147-dirty works ok. Re: Timeshift Support - adamsutton - 2012-12-21 Just a few general comments. 1. Timeshift buffer is currently a permanent ring buffer upto the specified limits. Much like a standard pvr. I'm going to eventually add an option for pause only. 2. Performance of timeshift seeking will be slightly quicker with local and/or SSD drive. But for most use cases it'll be negligible. 3. HD content is about 1-2MBytes per second. So 4-5GBytes an hour typically. So base space requirements on that. 4. Stuttering playback can occur depending on video playback settings. I'm still trying to figure optimal for my own machines. 5. There are definitely issues with playback after fd/rwd. Not sure where the fault lies at this stage. 6. I wouldn't call the code stable, but since its starting to be used and doesn't seem to be doing too badly I think I may merge to master in the next few weeks. Finally there is definitely a long way to go for a truely seamless timeshift, both in tvh and xbmc. But I think by at least having something we can begin that progress. Adam RE: Timeshift Support - basco - 2012-12-21 Thank you for the explanation Adam! Does that mean that even if i watch tv and no pauze is pressed yet, it will still writes the stream to disk? Re: Timeshift Support - adamsutton - 2012-12-22 Yes at the moment that's exactly what it means. I'll be adding some extra flexibility as we go. Adam RE: Timeshift Support - diggadave - 2012-12-23 I have been tasked with setting up timeshift for a friend on his box. Almost identical setup to what I have. I have cloned the git repo. Checked out the timeshift branch. And configured to enable timeshift. When I then try to make and make install, I get an error 1. Code: CC build.linux/src/timeshift.o Any ideas what I am doing wrong? Thanks Re: Timeshift Support - adamsutton - 2012-12-23 Probably a bug in my last commits, code it's a still in flux. Just checkout the same commit you're using. Adam RE: Timeshift Support - diggadave - 2012-12-23 Thanks for the advice Adam I must still be doing something wrong, cos I have tried using the commit I used, and now I get no timeshift option. Correct me if I am wrong but the steps below are what I am doing: 1. git clone https://github.com/tvheadend/tvheadend.git 2. git checkout a420c83a0e 3. ./configure --enable-timeshift 4. make 5. make install Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am not quite au fait with git, but will have a crack. Thanks RE: Timeshift Support - basco - 2012-12-23 using latest 3.3.218~g85bef87-dirty with timeshift. and we have a brand new timeshift tab in tvheadend configuration. enabled 'on demand' works perfectly! great work Adam. RE: Timeshift Support - xxxnelly - 2012-12-23 I am using the new tab too, great work Adam. I have noticed that the fast forward and rewind option from the OSD have gone, pause still works. Is this a xbmc, tvheadend-addon or tvheadend issue? Thanks Re: Timeshift Support - adamsutton - 2012-12-23 The on demand option doesn't do anything at the moment. I was just asking the new tab and thinking through some options I want to add. In fact I've probably broken a few things with the new config at the moment. Adam RE: Timeshift Support - diggadave - 2012-12-23 Trying to get the timeshift to work from an old commit. Cant understand where I am going wrong, if anyone can help would be extremely happy Thanks RE: Timeshift Support - basco - 2012-12-23 @dd why use an old commit? makes no sense. it's in development and i think Adam would me most helped with feedback on current status. good luck with getting timeshift to work. regards RE: Timeshift Support - diggadave - 2012-12-23 When I try to use the latest I get an error as listed earlier in this thread. Adam told me to use the same commit I have on my other box (which works), which I have tried and get no timeshift option. Have I missed anything from below: Code: ~# apt-get install build-essential git pkg-config libssl-dev bzip2 wget I'm not even sure if this is the correct way or if it is the way I did it on my own box. Many thanks for your help. Here is the error I get after trying the above steps: Code: root@XBMC:~# git clone https://github.com/tvheadend/tvheadend.git RE: Timeshift Support - xxxnelly - 2012-12-23 What os is this on? Could it be related to that? I using Ubnutu 12.04 Timeshift Support - diggadave - 2012-12-23 Xbmcbuntu frodo rc2 My box is rc1. But they are both based on Ubuntu 12.10, aren't they? |
