qwebirc62691 | ok, Im sure this will be a bit of a stupid question -but Im at a loss... | 01:21 |
---|---|---|
qwebirc62691 | Im trying to back my video content up to a cifs share, and if I use a windows box & go to network neighborhood I can copy from the CIFS share on my ubuntu box over to a CIFS share on my freenas box, but directly from my mythbuntu box -When I try to go to thunar & do Ctrl+L like everywhere is saying to dirrectly connect to a CIFS share, its not taking smb:// | 01:21 |
qwebirc62691 | What am I doing wrong here? :) | 01:21 |
AnthonyUK | I have a Peak Hardware DVB-T Dual tuner also known as Kworld DVB-T PC160-2T, what I want to find out is do these cards have the onboard encoders or does the cpu have to do it for them, reason I want to know is I have one of these cards and would like another one, but before I change my ssytem i gota make sure my cpu is up to the task. | 01:56 |
tgm4883 | AnthonyUK, digital cards don't have hardware encoders. Or are you talking about for the analog side (I didn't look to see if they had an analog side) | 01:57 |
AnthonyUK | http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Hardware_Requirements | 01:59 |
AnthonyUK | if you scroll down to "Performance Issues" they talk about onboard compression there | 02:00 |
AnthonyUK | the cards i have are digital tho to confirm your question | 02:00 |
AnthonyUK | analogue tv was shut down in my area of the uk a few years back | 02:00 |
AnthonyUK | so am I worrying over nothing? do all digital cards compress anyway, was it only an issue with analogue transmissions | 02:01 |
tgm4883 | AnthonyUK, digital cards don't have hardware encoders because digital signals already are compressed | 02:01 |
AnthonyUK | seems obvious now you say it hehe | 02:02 |
tgm4883 | a DVB card just dumps the stream to disk | 02:02 |
tgm4883 | it's usually mpeg2-ts | 02:02 |
tgm4883 | heh, it seems obvious, but it's always a good idea to check ;) | 02:02 |
AnthonyUK | its just occurded to me i could instruct my cards to record 2 channels at same time and find the command that brings up cpu usuage in linux | 02:03 |
AnthonyUK | thanks for you help tbg4883 | 02:08 |
tgm4883 | yw | 02:08 |
AnthonyUK | just one more question, the minimum and recommended system requirements on this page | 02:08 |
AnthonyUK | http://www.mythbuntu.org/support | 02:08 |
AnthonyUK | are they for frontend, backend or both? | 02:09 |
tgm4883 | AnthonyUK, frontend probably | 02:11 |
tgm4883 | AnthonyUK, backend shouldn't take much RAM/CPU at all | 02:11 |
tgm4883 | just HD space | 02:11 |
AnthonyUK | cool | 02:11 |
AnthonyUK | now i just gota find a motherboard on ebay that is 1)cheap 2)supports the low power 1.6cpu im buying 3) has gigabit lan and 3) has lots of pci slots | 02:13 |
AnthonyUK | hopefully my homeserver will use alot less power | 02:13 |
AnthonyUK | cheers for you help once again tgm4883 | 02:13 |
