[QUOTE="HTPCSourcer, post: 1143309, member: 74879"] Hi mm, I am not sure if I understand. Reading the above I conlcude that it is dynamic. Hence the max settings can be chosen such that the total usage equals the dedicated RamDisk space (minus overhead). Assuming that the maximum filespace is used, another stream coming up would then start to "eat" files away from the initial total. Let's take an example: min = 3, max = 12, file size = 512K (or ca. 6 GB of RamDisk, ignoring overhead here) [LIST] [*]User1 starts watching a show: timeshifting files are written until all 12 files are used, then cycling begins [*]User2 starts watching another show from a different client: timeshifting files get written and the number of allocated files for user 1 is reduced [*]User3 and User4 start watching different channels: at some point we will have 4x 3 timeshift files for the four streams. [/LIST] What happens when a fifth user joins the party? [/QUOTE]
