I am trying to setup a front-end (FE) to use the stored VIDEO in the /myth/video directory on the BackEnd (BE) that also has a FE. All are Knoppmyth. I had to change the player's options to use X11, but now the BE with an integrated FE can see and play the VIDEO fine. The remote FE can not. 1) the 'data base' that holds the VIDEO information seems to be not shared. I have to go in and recognize the video on the BE for it to play them, then the FE states, that the video is moved, and needs to re-recognize them (setup/video), then the BE/FE will not see them, and around and around I go. 2) the FE has a BAD lip-Sync Issue that is not there on recordings from TV or live-tv. Note that one of the VIDEO is a TV recording moved to the VIDEO directory. What I did: Quick explanation: ------------------------- BE/FE - Created a NFS mount of the /myth direcotory FE - mounted the NFS mount FE - changed the VIDEO Playback SETUP to point to the new mount for video (and posters) More Detailed explanation: ------------------------------------- following directions at but I had no /etc/export SO I created one with a single line /myth/video 192.168.11.0/24(ro) #Export my videos then did the; /etc/init.d/nfs-common start /etc/init.d/nfs-kernel-server start then updated the kernal update-rc.d nfs-common defaults update-rc.d nfs-kernel-server defaults then I went to the frontend mkdir /mnt/share-videos mount 192.168.11.105:/myth/video /mnt/share-videos Then updated fstab with #mount for video sharing 192.168.11.105:/myth/video /mnt/share-videos nfs defaults,auto,noatime 0 0 and changed the MYTH application's setup to look for videos in the /mnt/share-videos directory PROBLEMS: It did not work! I can see the files, but Myth on the FE states that they are 'not there', I went to video setup, re-recognized the videos, and then they played. They played poorly. Lip Sync was out my 30 seconds.... I went back to the BE/FE and tried to play the videos. The BE/FE needed to re-recognize the files, then the played with no lip-sync issue. changed the mount to be the whole /myth directory and nothing. From: Kevin Cossaboon Home MAC Mini Computer |
