Hi
Is there any way to change the recordings folder to a network drive. Everytime I do it MP says "Not enough disk space", even if I map the network folder as local drive.
I would really apretiate some help because I'm using gigabit ethernet and have a server with 2tbs of space on it and on My HTPC I have only a 40GB harddrive and I need to copy all my recordings every day manually to free disk space

in theory all you need to do is map the location to your server eg, in windows explorer map say e:\ to a folder on the server for the recordings , then just go into the configuration and go to TV and select the tuner and go configure i think it is from memory can't recall exactly , in there you can select where you want the recordings / timeshifting to go , you should just need to change it to the new mapping eg, e:\ and it should work sweet

thx for the reply,
The problem is that for me this still works only in theory, I already try to map it az y:\ but when I try to start the tv it says not enough disk sapace again

Sorry but It still doesn't work. Now that I followed your instructions, when I try to start the tv, Media portal displays the warning: "Unable to start Timeshifting, Unable to add StreamBufferSink filter".

Trying to record on a network folder crashes Mp or gives me at least a black screen.
Recording on the same folder is working with the DVBViewer flawlessly.

Set my computer up the same as it was before and it works fine for me

Im using mediaportal-svn-04-28-2006--01-03

Ive got windows xp pro sp2 on both computers

I cant understand why its not working for you

is the share folder setup to allow other users to change files?

 

[flokel]

As I said there are no problems with DVBViewer recording on the same network folder but when it comes to Mp: crash or black screen

I'll give the svn version you mentioned a try.

Made a fresh install of mp -> no go
tried the latest svn -> still no go

Tv is working fine until a select Timeshift or Record :roll:

No ideas ?
