It has quickly become apparent that I need to invest in at least one TB HD to hold my HD recordings.
I have the choice of hanging the drive off of my NAS unit as a USB2 drive that will be available via the network or mount the drive locally in the GBPVR server.
I have been recording locally, running VideReDo on the file and then archiving to the NAS.
I was wondering exactly how GBPVR is communicating to the PCH.....I started thinking (scary I know) and I think I may putting extra traffic over the network with the recordings on the NAS.....I am thinking the GBPVR has to read the file from the NAS and then stream it via HTTP to the PCH....thus I have the file coming from the NAS to the server and then an HTTP stream of the file from the server to the PCH.
Is my assumption correct on what is occuring?
I am looking for some input since most often I would be accessing my recordings via the PCH with the GBPVR front-end and want to put the drive in the most efficient location for that model.
Thanks.
