It would be helpful if you actually posted in the RPi dedicated thread as this has nothing to do with hardware at all.

moved

[bertybassett]

sorry I am a buffoon

thanks for the move

[bertybassett]

the TV is from TVheadend and not pirate TV add-ons so please stop sending PMs about pirate TV add-on as I have no idea on this.

[bertybassett]

another point to note is its all about the 4k write speed of your card. The best card for the buck is the

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Samsung-Memory-S...ng+class+6

Its 4k write speed is great, any faster and its wasted on the Pi2. I used a samsung class 10 card with faster 4k writes but I could not tell any difference.

[nrushforth]

Thanks for the info.

For your movies/video are you using NAS storage or an attached USB Hard Drive?

[bertybassett]

NAS Synology ds214play with 2 x 4tb but a USB H/D would be just as good.

now 2 x 8Tb in mirrored raid

Hi bertybassett nice set up. What Tuner are you using for the live TV? Thanks

[kataiba]

Nice and very FAST setup. I'm using Aeon Nox and it's even fast there.

Popcornmix,

What is your advice about this? I thougt Dirty regions were not needed anymore, also nofliptimeout?
what about cache buffer size?

Milhouse also wrote that the best setting for gpu_mem was 320?

The dirty regions are default, so are best removed from advancedsettings.
I'd also remove the cachemembuffersize (you will get 2MB for a 256MB Pi, and 20MB for 512M Pi or 1GB Pi2)

gpu_mem is set to 256 on a clean OE image, which I think is sensible for most users.
If you manually set the fanart resolution to 1080p and use a heavy skin, then 320 may be better.

To be honest, unless you are running lots of other applications (e.g. torrents), you'll find the ARM always has hundreds of MB free, so there is no harm in setting gpu_mem higher.
But for most users you'll see no difference with gpu_mem=256 or gpu_mem=512.
