Thanks Karl,

I mean about mount options like "discard":
https://wiki.debian.org/SSDOptimization#Mounting_SSD_filesystems

I never use eMMC disk, with SSD disk, there is a limited write access,
so it is important to not write every time. What about the logs? Do
you write logs in the Liva? I use to start mythfrontend this way:
"/usr/bin/mythfrontend --loglevel info --syslog local6"

I have a power meter device, in idle it consume 4.6W, 10W in playback.
It is very low.

Regards.
