ReadyNAS DVR config

Post by bigretic »

Ok, this worked for a while then kind of pooped out. Tuner would not find the DVR. I reinstalled the app with SSH, but now the Tuner and app see the DVR but NOTHING records or is in the record list to play back. There's a disconnect somewhere in the path i think but I cannot seem to figure it out. Help appreciated.

The logs from the DVR indicate that it does not have a RecordPath. The DVR has not restarted during the log window we have available so we can't see why that is. Typically it means that the hdhomerun.conf file is not present, the DVR was started without specifying the config file, or the location specified in the file was not accessible at the time the DVR started.

I have removed everything and reinstalled from https://info.hdhomerun.com/info/dvr:nas:netgear
Still does not work. What am I missing?
Player app loads to "Devices" screen. Lists Flex 4k and HDHomeRun RECORD with a xx% of 0.00TB used.
"Recorded" screen states: Your HDHomeRun DVR is ready to record.
SSH into NAS and ~# /apps/hdhomerun_record/bin/hdhomerun_record start --conf /apps/hdhomerun_record/hdhomerun.conf
HDHomeRun RECORD already running.


:~# ps aux | grep hdhomerun

It's now showing 3GB of free space. Is the NAS almost full, or is it still looking in the wrong place, or maybe a virtual volume was used and set too low?
