[QUOTE="Phaedra, post: 717790, member: 110603"] I tried the Maxtor drive yesterday. When I changed the timeshift buffer location and did my first tests, freezing was worse than before. I rebooted the server, to no avail. I then noticed I had activated the WebEPG and XmlTV plugins for testing the evening before, so I disabled them to get back to a "clean" configuration. Apparently, that dit the trick. In the limited time I had, I had live TV without freezing in two sessions of an hour each. The first was interrupted due to a PSU failure in the client (picoPSU 150W unable to sustain 50W of load for more than an hour). The second session ended because I wanted to go to sleep :-) So, at first sight, the freezing problem seems solved by using another HDD for timeshifting. Next problem is getting an EPG in some form without freezing up Mediaportal : using DVB as the EPG source is discouraged, WebEPG seems to be causing trouble too (or is it the XmlTV part ?). I saw an entry about a "PowerEvent" in the tv.log file at the time of freezing, but could not find an explanation about this. I want to be using the FTR plugin to manage recordings; this plugin is already active and apparently causing no trouble. [/QUOTE]
