using a network drive

theremper · 2007-08-10, 01:30

Hello I was wondering if it was possible to have the recorded shows use a network drive to save to instead of the local one machine. You see I save everything on my 1Terrabyte file server. . and the time shift programs use the local one.

yeah, you just need to use UNC drive notations.
IE, instead of mapped drives, use the format \\<fileserver>\recordings or whatever names you use for your set up.
