Hi,
I have master backend with pvr 350 with analog antenna. I've recently
added salve backend (Asus Digimatrix) with built in bttv capture card
with same antenna signal:
- slave backend is not on all the time (it's mainly used for frontend)...
- I'd like to record always first on master tuner and then on slave tuner
- I'm not sure how to configure channels (they are same for both cards -
same antenna is connected) - I do have problems cause defining same
channels on both obviously doesn't work...
I'd kindly ask for any help or pointers to more info how to setup such
system... I've read howto, but didn't extract such info..
It should be straightforward. First, make sure you are using the *same*
database for both the slave and master backends. This is a common mistake
to create a new database that the slave uses. Once you have this set up,
adding the slave capture card and binding the same channel source you
created for the first capture card to the new capture card will allow both
to schedule for the same channels without any additional work. As long as
the slave is on, it will be available for recordings. Because it was
added second to your database, it will naturally be of a lower priority
than the first card.
Hi,
thanks for info... I'm just curious - should I set up same channels on both
backends or is enough just once. Also how to distinguish between Composite
inputs on both systems ?
Thanks in advance,
regards,
Rob.
