Hi,What I meant is that splitting recordings over several disks is a much higher risk than keeping the recordings together.I know that Klaus does not like the splitting of the video directory over several directories very much and I agree with him totally. The handling of different directories ( as its implemented now ) can cause the lost of nearly all records if the first directory crashes.Hm... why should a directory "crash"? It's better to loose 20 full recordings than 40 half recordings :-) There are several ways to do so. You can use category names and link these to different disks, and when you add a timer name the recording like:Also the handling of different directories is not too trivial and in my eyes its absolutely unnecessary.If there is a easier way to "add" extra space -temporary- it's OK. I found they current way not very convient too, that's why i ask. category~recording Another possibility ( which I am using ) is to cut recordings to another disk. But therefore you need a little patch :-) Just mount this Disc to /video and if you want to see your old recordings also, then create a link to your old video directory under /videoI wanted to record it to a separate USB disc... How can i do that with a Softwareraid? -- Helmut Auer, helmut@helmutauer.de |
