[QUOTE="infinite.loop, post: 164294, member: 10723"] [LIST=1] [*]in my opinion, there is no difference in timeshift usage between multiseat and singleseat setups. everyone i know personaly who is using TVE3 in the livingroom in singleseat setup wants timeshift. ;) why?: [LIST] [*]because you can pause LiveTV when "something" imterupts [*]because you can go back a few seconds if you want to see something again [*]because you can go back if you havent understood something correctly [*]because you can tune a channel when the movie starts -> do something else -> when you start to watch the Movie 15 minutes later you can go to the start of the move and then skip all commercials (thats the favorite for my parents-in-law) [/LIST] [*]if i understood you correctly, then you want to specifiy the "size" of the timeshiftbuffer and the location where the files are stored. thats possible since the very beginning of TV-Server ;) [ATTACH]8377.vB[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]8378.vB[/ATTACH] [/LIST] @all i understand that the "noise" of the HDD can be annoying when watching a "silent" movie. but there are no plans to add a option to turn off the timeshift feature in TV-Server. if i would be in the same situation ( iam not because my HTPC-Clients are stored in the basement :D ), then i would consider the following "solutions" to store the timeshiftbuffer files: [LIST] [*]using a solid-state disk (quite expensive atm.) [*]creating a RAM drive (i would suggest at least 2GB of RAM then, where ~1GB could be adressed for timeshiftbuffer. i wouldnt use more than 1GB :) ) [*]using a fast USB2 Stick [*]using a external USB-HDD which is located somewhere where i do not "hear" it (max USB2 cable lengt between ~6 meters) [*]looking for a "silent" HDD, the noise is usaly messured too by hardware magazines when testing HDDs [*]tweaking the "sound" mode of HDDs (there are several tools around to make a disk "silent". however thats not good for waranty afaik ;) [*]buy a silent HTPC case / modify it. HDDs are then mounted vibration-free and the case is "noise-isolated" (bit problematic for the heat....) [/LIST] Maybe one of my ideas above helps you further. :) If anyone of you manages to "get rid of HDD noise" then it would be nice if he could share his solution (a small tutorial) :) :thx: [/QUOTE]
