Hi, I am currently on the latest build 808 and have recently found out that transcoding is not working with this build. Can someone please confirm if timeshift is working on this build also before I start trying to solve my problems with it. I have looked around but cant seem to find any info.
Thanks

Timeshift is working perfectly on 808, this is not related to any issues with transcoding. go to menu/setup/system/timeshift to set it up

As above Timeshift is working just fine, Transcoding on the other hand is a driver issue that Vu+ are aware of and hopefully working to fix.

I had a problem with Time shift . I've found that if the " use time shift seek bar while time shifting " is set to "yes" My time shift doesn't work at all. Switching back to no and everything is okay. Using vix 808

I Don't use transcoding

Do you have a debug log from the times this has happened ?.

Ok Phoenix, I initially couldn't get the issue to re appear, so I used back up manager and went back to 802 build, then used image manager to re download 808, Time shift worked, ran ADM and cross epg, Time shift still ok. Installed Media portal, updated from 5.04 to 5.06 restart engima, Still time shit worked.

Short story is I haven't been able to reproduce the issue, but have now enabled my debug logs and will make a point of using them in the future.

Maybe lee77 could save a log before making any changes ????

Ok finally got round to trying to sort this out. I cannot get timeshift working at all. I press pause on any channel and get nothing, just the circle icon in the top right corner.
Everyone tells me to go to timeshift settings and enable it there but I must be missing something (brain maybe). Below are my settings:

Timeshift location: /media/hdd/timeshift
automatically start timeshift after: disabled
show warning when timeshift is stopped: yes
timeshift save action on zap: ask user
stop timeshift while recording: no
use timeshift see bar while timeshifting: yes

I have tried to set (automatically start timeshift after: for 2 seconds) but I get the message "the directory is not ext2. ext3, ext4 or NFS partition, make sure you select a valid partion type"
My solo2 is wired to my server and all my movies etc work fine. When I set the solo2 up it created the timeshift folder itself on the server so I thought everything should of been ok.
I am completely lost here but im guessing timeshift dosnt like the timeshift folder on my server for some reason.
Any ideas anyone.
Thanks

well, that's the answer then:


.....but I get the message "the directory is not ext2. ext3, ext4 or NFS partition, make sure you select a valid partion type"....

Thought the server was already set up this way after it made the timeshift folder? :o
Any ideas how I can set this up to work on a synology server?

Probably best I just install a small cheap HDD drive for timeshift. My server goes into hibernation mode anyway so wont be much use for timeshift really. Thnaks
