Pvr over Nfs

[ocean]

Hey Guys
I know that the question was asked many times before, but I (and maybe other users too) still got a problem by config my init-files for pvr over nfs. I don't know exactly what to change in these files and I also don't know if the the xfs-Image is still needed or even where I have to store it on the nfs-share. Also I think it's good to know if we can use the same adjusts for C-,D- and E-Series.
My adjusted nfs-shares are on a fritzbox 7320 with freetz running. The exports-file on the "server" is:

Code: Select all

the ip of server is: 192.168.2.2
exports:
/var/media/ftp/Nfs-Filme/Videos *(rw,anonuid=0,anongid=0,insecure,async,fsid=0,no_subtree_check)
/var/media/ftp/Nfs-Platte *(rw,anonuid=0,anongid=0,insecure,async,fsid=0,no_subtree_check)

The shares were found in standard config of all samygo init-files. The first share only offers the videos to watch on the tvs, the second one is an own hdd only for pvr (if possible for both tvs the same pvr storage).
So I think the shares are correct.
But where do I need to change the init files.

Kind regards ocean

P.S.: If everything is running fine I offer to write a wiki entry...

Even if nobody answered on my question I got the "PVR over NFS" working now. I even didn't use the vusb-script neither the record-to-nwshare-script. I built everything inside the nfsmount-script as you can see here in the code comment, which is copied and modified by the code parts I found here in forum:

It's maybe a little bit dirty coding, but for me it is working with this version on my UE32D6510 and also on the UE46ES6710.
I just leave it here if anybody else needs something to start one thinking.

P.S.: Would be great if anybody could give me an answer about how to disable DRM on the ES I asked already there -> viewtopic.php?f=53&t=5224

[juusso]

thanks for sharing!

[ocean]

no problem juuso, your welcome

[miazza]

Really interesting job.
Do you this there is any chance to have it working also over samba ?

I don't know. I was happy when all was running on nfs.

Amazing.
its working! Thanks a lot for sharing

Edit:
I was just thinking i will write what i have tested it on.

You're welcome mmhorda.

with that script I now got 3 virtual-usb devices called "Movies", "Aufnahmen" and "Recorder".
"Movies" are all the of my movies on the first nfs-share.
"Aufnahmen" is the mounted CONTENTS folder of the D-Series TV with unencrypted records.
"Recorder" the virtual-usb for the E-Series to record on.

with

Code: Select all

rm "$DEST_DIR_2"/*.mkv
for i in "$DEST_DIR_2"/*.srf; do ln -s "$i" "${i/.srf}".mkv; done

I could link to the records of the D-Series tv to get them played on the ES. Everytime the ES is booting up all links will be deleted and only any records on the D CONTENTS exists a new link will be performed. That also will keep up the right name if you activate moviemanager-script on D-Series tv, as it also deletes the links to records that no longer exists on the share.

Has anybody a solution for deactivating the popup for the first device that is connected here in that script?
