Hi all
and thank you in advance.
Did I miss it or was the option to assign cards to "only timeshifting" or "only recording" removed ?
OR:
Can I use the "maximum number of cards to be used for recording/timeshifting" feature together with card priorities somehow to make sure some cards are only timeshifting and others are only recording ?
OR:
Are there driver options/tweaks which make cards pure timeshifting or recording cards ?
Background:
I guess I remember that at some point there was an option like "allow this card to be used for timeshifting" or "allow this card to be used for recording" respectively.
Honestly it's not so impotant to have this "feature" - but during my career (I really started with 0.0.0.1) in mediaportal I collected many TV cards. Now I'm about to build a new TVServer and I want to place in total 7 tuners in it (Yes - I know that's a bit crazy but I don't wanna sell any of the cards for 5€ on e-bay...)
My plan is:
4x FloppyDTV for timeshifting (I have 4 clients and the FloppyDTVs give me the fastest channel changes by far)
1x Dual CineS2 for recording (still a cool card, but I bit slower an changing channels - especially if one tuner runs and channels are changed on the other tuner)
1x Nova HD S2 for - I have no idea what for - maybe the only one to grab EPG or so (I'll never buy anything from Hauppauge again)
THANKS
Tobias
PS - @devs: Even if the feature is simply gone and there's no other way to achieve my perfect dream solution - please don't feel enganged to change code for my unimportant luxury problem but concentrate on more impotant things. MediaPortal and the TVServer are absolutely great anyway !
