is it only me who has more than 1 tv? how do others do this?
I have two, but they do not have "equal rights". The master VDR is always on, has 1 FF and 2 budget cards, does all recordings, has hard disks and runs the DHCP and tftp servers for the slave. The slave is only on when I am watching, has 1 FF card, does no recording and had no hard disk.
Both share the same pool of directories. /video is on the master and contains symbolic links to the (Genre) top-level directories which are distributed over 9 disks. The master contains some of theses disks and nfs-mounts the rest from another server. The slave nfs-mounts from the master and the other server.
I have made a tiny extension to the runvdr script on the slave which moves timer entries to the master every time vdr restarts on the slave, so I can "remotely" program the master's timers from the slave.
