Re: [mythtv-users] diskless backend?

[Alex Brekken]

To be honest, I don't know if this would work, but even if it did - I'm curious to know what the benefit would be?  When watching liveTV you'll be doing a full roundtrip with the video-stream across your network.  Why not just do the capturing where the disks are and have a diskless frontend?

I am considering building a diskless mini-ITX frontend/backend using NFS

two streams at a time and watching at most one.

Has anyone done this?  Any problems with the setup?

Also, when watching live TV, does the backend read from the file and
stream to the backend?  Or does it take what it is capturing and both
write it to the file and stream it to the frontend?  If it reads it from
the file, then is there any likelihood of the data being cached?
