Then I use Media-Buddy to transcode the videos to HEVC in MKV container. If I want to keep a recording then I trim and cut it first, remove all commercials and pre- post recordings. ![]() The only thing that is important to me are the season and episodes numbers. I don't like unfinished TV recordings with pre and post recording time and lots of commercials added to my well shaped media library. Those nasty direct access from outside is the only real reason for the need of a full blown database server in MP1 and it also is the only reason why MP1 can not access MP2 TV engine.Ĭlick to expand.Personally I don't use this feature at all. MP1 can not use the much faster (about 10 times as fast as MySQL) SQLite database engine as the MP1 TV client plugin has not very good code and does some direct database accesses instead of using the TV engine for all access (as it has to be). If you have a lot bigger database than mine you need a high- end CPU for the server. My media database is on the edge of what MP2 can handle on a low to mid- range PC. But MP2 can't handle this big databases due to performance issues. SQLite is capable of handling Terrabyte sized databases with ease. In MP2 you can easily see the size of the db as MP2 uses SQLite and here the database is a single file (ok, two files, a tiny one for the TVE and a huge one for the media library). The TVE database (including all EPG data) is only about 10-20 Mbyte where the (my) media database is around 4-6 GByte of size. However I am fairly sure that TV Server does not provide this capability.Ĭlick to expand.Yes, tiny, at least compared to the media database. It may be that MP2 provides some post-processing to identify movies using information from the EPG or downloaded from the internet, but I have never used MP2 so cannot advise. I record quite a few one-off documentaries, which (of course) are stored in the same folder as movies, since that is the only capability that TV Server provides. (2) Store repeated recordings in a different folder for each recording request (by using folder notation with substitutions in the template). (1) Store all one-off recordings in the same folder. ![]() So, I think that the only choices that you have are: The use of the word Movies here is misleading, as TV server does not know when it is recording a movie. Notice that for the first drop-down menu, it shows Movies (manual or single type recordings). You can specify the recording location on this panel in "TV Server Config": What it does distinguish is the type of recording request - either a single ("one off") recording or a repeated ("series") recording. Click to expand.I use MP1, but my understanding is that MP1 and MP2 use the same "TV Server" code, although packaged differently (so you cannot use an MP1 TV Server from an MP2 client, or vice versa).Īs far as I know, TV Server has no understanding of the nature of what it is recording.
