After 2.5 years of using GBPVR, I made the switch to NPVR a couple of months back. Very happy so far as it's finally allowed me to use my PCH on a 2nd TV - with GBPVR I had to record in DVR-MS format which was not supported by PCH.
The only issue is that my 1TB hard disk very quickly became full. Maybe the TS format takes more disk than DVR-MS format?
I have a 2nd 1TB disk (F drive) in the PVR that I would like to start putting new recordings on. F drive is non-boot, so the whole disk can be used for recordings, instead of sharing with the Windows system files like it does currently on C drive.
So my only question is: can I change the Recordings Directory from C:\somewhere to F:\somewhere and NPVR will seamlessly manage ok? My 2 main concerns are:
a) Recurring recordings should still be listed together even if some are on C: and some on F:
b) Auto delete of recordings will work ok when some are on C: and some on F: (i.e. when deleting an old recording to make way for a new recurring recording)
Cheers.
