[mythtv-users] Verizon Fiosw/ Ceton Infinitv 6 eth issues?

[Marc Tousignant]

Peter,

 

I think you are right. The mythbackend logs reported some disk timeouts.. I
think I know what happened.

When I was copying the videos from the external back on to the internal
RAID, somehow I was using too much IO on the drives.. What with the RAID
rebuilding/initializing, the copy back, AND recordings.

I got a ton of these.

W [26412/27877] TFWWrite threadedfilewriter.cpp:568 (DiskLoop) -
TFW(/RAID/media/recorded/10731_20191014050600.ts:60): write(36472) cnt 88
total 4724064 -- took a long time, 2409 ms

I think you hit the nail on the head, though in the UI they were only listed
once, when I looked in the SQL database I found 12 entries, 2 for each. One
set was cardid 1-6 and the other was 7 to 12. 1 and 7 were both 0, etc.

Thanks. Now I just have one more issue, as I am running in to an issue
migrating to a new, larger, drive. But I'll post a new thread on that.

That is not necessarily a problem, you can have each videodevice more than
once. If you go to "Input Connections" for the device and select
"Interactions between inputs" you can set max recordings to 2 which creates
two entries for the card and allows you to preroll one show while another
show is still recording on the same device. It makes two overlapping
recordings from the same device.

To be safe, perhaps it would be best to delete all the capture cards and
card inputs and set them up again, making sure you only use each tuner
number once. Setting mac recordings to 2 is useful for prerolls and overtime
situations.
