[QUOTE="Lehmden, post: 1248510, member: 109222"] Hi. A hint for all who want to use TVServerKodi plugin together with a RAM disc for timeshifting... Kodi needs network shares for both, Recordings and Timeshift folder... Normally those shares are created by the plugin. But a RAM disc is re- created on every system start, so the share did not survive a restart.. But with a tiny .bat placed in startup (or taskplaner, it's more reliable as Win10 has issues with .bat in startup folder) this can be solved: [CODE=WinBatch]net share Timeshift=R:\Timeshift /GRANT:EVERYONE,FULL exit[/CODE] where "Timeshift" (before the = ) is the name of the share and "R:\Timeshift" (after the = ) is the path to the timeshift folder on the RAM disc. With "/GRANT" the timeshift share gets it's privileges, here "FULL" access for "EVERYONE" (maybe you need to change this according to your system's language, in German it's "JEDER" as example). Then save this as e.g. "timeshift.bat" and execute it during system startup. Now you should be able to use the RAM disc for timeshift in Kodi too... [/QUOTE]
