Hello.
I am using NextPVR backend on system with SSD drive. SSDs (especially those with triple level cells) dont like writing too much. For this reason I have decided to place Buffer directory on Ramdrive with small capacity (32 up to 256mb).
When i watch TV on this system with NextPVR software everything is fine, the problem starts when I try to use XBMC as frontend.
When TV is being watched the liveTV.ts file appears and grows. Once disk gets full NextPVR has no trouble to continue in displaying video. If the same happens using XBMC the player is showing short loop...
So I made the Ramdrive bigger and noticed that when file reaches about 180-200mb its liveTV-2.ts is created and streaming continues using newer file. Older file however remains present...
a) Bug or feature
b) Is it possible to forbid timeshift on backend?
c) Is it possible to define that liveTV.ts file will have specific size when it splits?
d) Is it possible to "cleanup" all *.ts files once newer is created?
Thanks.
