timeshift and record to network share (1 Viewer)

[icefire2010]

Hi. I'm running my mediaportal on a machine with an SSD and I don't want timeshifting data to be written to it.
I also have a server with all my media on it, running raid 5.

Mediaportal is quite happy to read from that server but not to record or timeshift to it.
The network share on the server is set to everyone FULL, guest FULL.

So right now I can´t watch tv because mediaportal tells me there isn't enough diskspace.
I have 6,3 TB free where the share is.

I'm guessing that mediaportal has some kind of special user, but I have no idea how to solve this.
The WAF is sinking at an alarming rate


EDIT:

Both the server and the htpc is running Window 7 Pro x64 SP 1

You can build a RAMDisk for timeshift with IMDisk it is very easy and fast.

For Recordpath use UNC Path like \\ServerNameorIP\share

I think, the best way to use ramdisk if you have enough ram in the client ot move the tuners to the server and instal the MP server in the server.

The tvserver configuration will not allow me to type the path, I have to use "browse" so no UNC Path.
I'm timeshifting to a USB disk now, a small one hidden behind the HTPC. So thats not a problem right now.
But why can't I record?

I could before and then I built a new htpc and server. I can't remember what I did to make it work the last time.

Change the tv server service account to a user who can write to the nas.

That sound like a good idea! So.... how do I do that?
