@mcelliott - yes, so long as you can mount the SMB share to the Pi before tvheadend starts (or, more accurately, tries to access the location, which is effectively the same things as it would access the recording directory to check the status of previous recordings).

Once the share is mounted, the OS sees it as local storage, as that's how Linux filesystems work. Tvheadend thus sees it as a local directory, and has no knowledge of the network connection in between.

Thanks for the answer. I'll dig around into mounting SMB shares in OpenELEC for RPi. I'm sure it's not too difficult.

Best wishes,

Mark
