[mythtv-users] Multiple HDHomeruns

Well I was thinking about splitting the storage between the two backends.  I may have to record 4 or 5 HD feeds at once.  That's way I was going for a master / slave setup and putting all the tuners and slave on the subnet.

Sirs:



I have 3 HDHomerun tuners that will sit on a subnet with a Master Frontend / Backend and a Slave Backend.  The master will have two nics so the frontend can interact with the main network.  My question is, do the tuners in the HDHomeruns (six tuners total) have to be hard assigned to either the master or slave? Or can the boxes be set to just pick an unused one?  And if I have to assign them is it better to split them up, say something like all tuner 0's to the master and all tuner 1's to the slave, or both tuners in a single HDHomerun to master or slave?  Thanks for any help.

I would just put all tuners on the master.  I assume that is where the storage is.  Do you have storage and/or tuners in your slave backup?  what is its purpose.

You for sure do NOT want to assign the same tuner to mult. backends.
