I'll keep this idea in my mind, and whenever I'll see, that my choices are too limited, I'll reconsider your suggestions.

Re: [vdr] read-only video directory
Hi! The VDR-client is started this way: vdr -Pstreamdev-client -Pxineliboutput -v /video Thanks, now I understand: /video is writable by vdr. I don't want that: the client sees the same setup files (also the timers) as the server, so the client would try to record the same as the server. No. The setup, timers, etc. from the server are all in the clients /video/server directory. The client does not use them, because they are not in its video-root-direcory. When you use the suggested solution with unionfs, then the client uses the servers setup/timers/epg/etc. because it sees them in its /video-directory.

I don't want that: the client sees the same setup files (also the timers) as the server, so the client would try to record the same as the server. The client should not be able to record anything. Thanks also to Steffen and Udo for your suggestions. I'm sure, that the unionfs or aufs solutions would work, but I would like to keep things as simple as possible: an ro-nfs-mount and a patched vdr.c work quite well. I've just finished my vdr-setup: http://pmrb.free.fr/vdr/ Any comments are welcome! -- Peter ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
Re: [vdr] read-only video directory
Hi! The workaround I use is to mount the server in a subdirectory e.g. mount the server-directory to /net/media/data/video/servervideo and start the client-vdr like this: vdr -Pstreamdev-client -Pxineliboutput -v/net/media/data/video Unfortunately I don't understand. Could you please show examples? My VDR-client has this directories: /video /video/server I mount my VDR-server to /video/server, e.g. mount -t nfs -o ro server:/video /video/server The VDR-client is started this way: vdr -Pstreamdev-client -Pxineliboutput -v /video Regards, Stephan. -- loesc...@gmx.de http://www.loescher-online.de/ ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
