Running Myth .17 Athlon xp2200 512mb of ram Hauppauge v4l card 40gb hard drive nvidia gforce 4
1. I keep running out of disk space and am unable to record anything new. Even if i delete ALL recordings, I am still out of space. I must manually delete several .nuv files from my drive. Once deleted, I must stop and start mythbackend in order for myth to see the free space. I have searched the threads and see several discussions about this issue but no fixes that I can understand. I am not a coder and only a Linux beginner. Since i have a 40gb drive i am repeating this process several times a week. anyone have a fix that a newbie could perform? 2. I understand that transcoding helps to save space. I don't understand all the transcoding options. I have tried several variations but dont even know if i am changing the correct settings for my box. Many times after a recording the Hard drive will churn for days until i get sick of waiting and restart it. I have read the How-To's but do not understand the different transcoding options in the setup screens. Can anyone tell me which options i should use for my bttv card and how long a show should take to transcode and how large it should be after transcoding? Thanks Brad
