| [01:16:38] | mack: | Kodi with the mythtv plugin works well. I hate trying to schedule recordings with it, though. And keep mythfrontend around for some other things. |
| [01:42:35] | Sabotender: | i'm not trying to sound as if I'm making trouble, it's just that, every time I think I've got it perfect, another problem pops up. I would like to find some stability. That's all I ask. |
| [01:46:08] | Sabotender: | My new hdd arrived and its the last of the set. I am going to clone the 1 to 20, and use the 1TB for live TV and scratch disk, which should alleviate some stress about missing files, hopefully. |

| [21:11:25] | Sabotender: | mack: please, would you happen to know which directory mythtv uses as the scratch, because, if I understand this correctly, whenever an episode that has been scheduled, is recording, mythtv writes the data stream from the tuner, to a semi temporary file, which is then copied to the directory that had been set in the Storage Groups. is the LiveTV directory used for scratch? |
| [21:15:19] | mack: | yes, live tv storage group |
| [21:15:42] | mack: | err, I think. Let me make sure :) |
| [21:17:02] | mack: | yes. The table here: https://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Setup_Storage_Directories |
| [21:18:17] | mack: | (it also describes the use of the Default Group) |
| [21:27:42] | Sabotender: | Brilliant, thanks! I am reconfiguring these recording and storage groups. I am bind mounting directories in /home/mythtv to bypass any file permision errors such as executable perms |
| [21:28:49] | Sabotender: | from there, they will point to my external drives in fstab |

| [22:34:31] | Sabotender: | I was just basing the mounted directories in home/mythtv from a comment by a developer |
| [22:35:37] | Sabotender: | ... lol I had forgotten something |
| [23:42:22] | Sabotender: | For my new drive, I want to take advantage of transcoding videos to save on disk space, in a lossless fashion; does handbrake need a scratch disk? |
