how to record to a disk in a NAS? (1 Viewer)

[kkendall]

By the way, there is another bug here:
When the above happens, even though a recording is not started, the TVserver locks up your TV card and it can't be freed anymore. Only a hard restart of tvservice helps.

Right-click Computer, manage, services, find TV service, right click on it, select properties, "Log On" tab. Change "Log on as" to the account you want to use.

Hope that helps

Yep, got it! Thanks!
I had no idea what accounts I could choose, I was thinking of 'Administrator' or 'Guest' but that was wrong, so I looked what the other services were using. The were all using either local service, network service or local system.
I changed TV service from 'local system' to 'local service' and that did the trick!
Could this change cause other unwanted behaviour in MP? (and why is it not set as a local service after a standard MP installation?)

Unfortunately it still doesn't work
I thought it did, but it doesn't.
Is there somebody out there that has recording to a NAS working???

I use NAS (samba3) for recording (windows7).

1. make an account on NAS (for example mediaportal with a password)
2. make an account on htpc with same user name and password.
3. set up tvservice to use the account.

I'v given it another try.
I made a new account and added the account to the system default group of my Synology NAS. (The group privileges of the system default group were already Read/Write for all maps, and that is the account that I used before.)
I've added a new administrator account to Windows 7 with the same username and password as the new account on my NAS.

Now, how do I set up tv service to use this account?

Start > Settings > Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Services

if you have issue after setup the service, try it:

Control Panel - Administrative Tools - Local Security Policy
Local Policies - Security Options

Network security: LAN Manager authentication level
Send LM & NTLM responses

Minimum session security for NTLM SSP
Disable Require 128-bit encryption

Start > Settings > Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Services

It took me quite some time to understand what you mean with my dutch Windows, but you probably mean:
Start > Control Panel > System and security > Administrative tools > Services
THen I located TV service > right mouseclick > properties >Tab: Log On
The tvservice was set to log on as local system account
Do I have to change it to the second option and fill the 'This account:' part with the name of the new account I just made for both the htpc as the NAS? For example 'Mediaportal' and the password I chose?

Minimum session security for NTLM SSP
Disable Require 128-bit encryption

Do you mean here that I hav to disable this for both clients and servers?

yes

only the tv server

no I ment there are 2 places there where you can disable the 128 bit encryption:
Minimum session security for NTLM SSP for servers and
Minimum session security for NTLM SSP for clients

I disabled both now and recording seems to go ok!
lets see if it stays that way,
thanks a lot!

I'm experiencing trouble recording to my NAS. I read some topics, but unfortunately, I can't get it work.

I have a user 'stream' on my NAS, which has access to all the necessary folders. After reading this topic, I made a local Win7 user 'stream' and setup this user to start the TVService services. When I do this, I get an error message that the Service cannot be started due to login issues. How can I setup the locale user, and grant permission to start Services?
