hi...
i have mplayer set to -20, but when watching mpeg2 videos a fre frames
get dropped every minute (and a python process gets cpu time as i can
see with top)... i guess thats the recordserver since it is looping
and witing for 60 seconds.
is there a way to set the level of the recordserver
This is what I use to set it to a low priority...
VCR_CMD = (' --prio=-20 ' + # Mute the line-in while
recording
'/usr/local/bin/mencoder ' + # Change. Absolute path to
the runtime
'tv:// -tv driver=v4l:input=0' + # Input 0 = Comp. V. in

ah.. forgot to mention: i use ivtv.. (so i dont use vcr_cmd)
but i solved this by myself by adding the following to recordserver.py
just before the whil 1 loop:
import os
os.nice(19)
maybe a little dirty but
Am I correct in saying this is not a working feature in the record server
or webserver? I have Seinfeld set the the highest priority, but it's not
being recorded *at all* because of other conflicts with favorites that
were added after Seinfeld became a favorite.
