Hi.
Sorry, but maybe I don't understand exactly what's going on. I'm no native English speaker and school was 40 years ago...
For timeshift. Your system has 8 GB of RAM so you easily can use some of it for a RAM drive. This way timeshift should work great. My MP2 server also has 8GB of RAM on a Celeron CPU, much less strong than your i5... I've setup a RAM disc with a maximum of 5 GB using IMDiskTK as Software. It's easy to setup , has no limits like any other software and it's free... Aside this it only uses the RAM dynamically, just in time. As long as you don't do timeshift literally no RAM is wasted by the RAM disc...
This is working ootb for MP but for Kodi you need to add a .bat script to the Windows Taskplaner as the RAM disc isn't shared after a restart any longer. The script should look like this:
You need to adjust the drive letter (R: in this example) and the timeshift folder to your setup and then save this as something like "timeshift.bat". This batch you need to run on every start of the server,easiest with taskplaner...
After pointing the timeshift folder inside the setuptv tool to the new created RAM drive everything should work like a charm...
Your recording issue I don't understand completely. What exactly did you do, step by step, please? And what happens vs what do you expect to happen?
