  1. Right, so it's apparent that my MediaBuild is sometimes a bit hit & miss, but here's RC3.  As always it detects no tuners because my card isn't in the kernel.  I've changed tack slightly and am now compiling the drivers as modules rather than including them in the kernel.  I'm hoping that might help. 

     

    Tophicles - Which mediabuild do you normally use when piotrasd posts them - the regular or CrazyCat one?

     

    Rename the files to bzroot & bzimage and remember to keep backups of your old bzroot & bzimage so you can roll back if there are any problems either with my Media Build or with RC3 itself.

    Hey,

     

    Have you included all the drivers for USB TV Tuners for RC3? When I tried your RC2 build, my tuner wasn't detected and I ended up building my own.

     

    Cheers

  2. Hi Sparklyball's,

     

    Having a slight issue with your Kodi-Headless docker. When trying to install, Select the docker from community repo plugin, set the location for the appdata on cache but when I click "create docker", no action happens.

     

    Already using the filezilla docker fine and a few others.

     

    Any ideas?

     

    Cheers

  3. Would be nice to see the following dockers created, then I might be able to give it ago and see if it performs any better than my Arch Xen image

     

    Requests:

     

    TVHeadend

    Madsonic / Subsonic

     

    Cheers

     

  4. Going to be setting up Unraid 6 beta soon along with this VM, just wanted to check its easy enough to pass through a USB device to the VM?

     

    I'd wait for Beta 4 if you want to pass through USB devices. Added support for USB devices is being added.

     

    Thanks, Atleast that gives me time to source a Cache drive and fit it into my N54L :)

  5. Been running TVHeadend for about a week now and for some reason, all of a sudden it won't tune to any channels when selected via XBMC.

    Using a Sony PlayTV (Connected via USB) as my DVB. Does anyone have any idea's what could be causing this?

     

    **Edit** - Just done a power down, moved usb ports and booted it back up and its all working. Strange problem really!

  6. Sorry, the tvheadend version behind this is rather old. I can update with the latest one from piotrasd repo tonight. I think there are no XML grabbers included in my file. I just took the file from WW and stripped the useless stuff that cluttered the interface. Sorry :-(

    Will report back here when I changed the file.

     

    edit: I just realized. It is from August, maybe you can update it with latest piotrasd?

     

    No worries Mettbrot, in fact I don't think if it was even on your end, because it had been working up until a week ago when I rebooted after doing some server maintenance. Looking through the log I figured out a couple of things: even with this line in my go script:

    sleep 20 && sudo -u root tvheadend -c /mnt/cache/TVHeadend/.htsconfig -u root -g video -f >/dev/null 2>&1

    I kept having to manually restart TVHeadend after every reboot because my array doesn't spin up automatically. I have some of my TVHeadend config files stored on my array instead of my cache drive, so I changed that line to this:

    if [[ -r "/mnt/disk1/tvhchk.txt" && -f "/mnt/disk1/tvhchk.txt" ]]; then
    sudo -u root tvheadend -c /mnt/cache/TVHeadend/.htsconfig -u root -g video -f >/dev/null 2>&1
    fi

    and placed a blank text file on one of my array disks so TVHeadend won't start until the array is started.

     

    Then I realized my tv_grab_file was also on the array, so when I tried to copy it to /usr/bin in the go script, the array wasn't mounted yet and nothing was happening. So now my go script looks like this:

    #!/bin/bash
    # Start the Management Utility
    /usr/local/sbin/emhttp &
    
    cd /boot/packages && find . -name '*.auto_install' -type f -print | sort | xargs -n1 sh -c
    
    ln -s /boot/custom/dvbhdhomerun /etc/dvbhdhomerun
    ln -s /boot/custom/userhdhomerun /usr/bin/userhdhomerun
    modprobe dvb_hdhomerun && sleep 10 && /usr/bin/userhdhomerun &
    
    if [[ -r "/mnt/disk1/tvhchk.txt" && -f "/mnt/disk1/tvhchk.txt" ]]; then
    sudo -u root tvheadend -c /mnt/cache/TVHeadend/.htsconfig -u root -g video -f >/dev/null 2>&1
    cp /mnt/user/TVHeadend/epg/tv_grab_file /usr/bin/    
    sudo chmod a+x /usr/bin/tv_grab_file -v
    /usr/bin/tv_grab_file &
    fi
    
    /boot/unmenu/uu

    And voila, everything is working perfectly. I went ahead and upgraded to to piotrasd's latest experimental build (I figured what the hell, I'm getting pretty good at working out the kinks :) ) and so far everything is working great!

     

    I really appreciate how helpful people have been on this thread. I know I have some pretty long posts, but I'm hopping the detail will help out the next guys that comes along and gets stuck like I have  :)

     

    Where did you grab the experimental build from? :)

     

    Cheers

  7. Hi,

     

    Recently started to get unraid setup with my N54L, having never used it before I was following the guide on the wiki and regarding the preclearing, I used the following command:

     

    preclear_disk.sh -r 65536 -w 65536 -b 2000 -A /dev/sdX

     

    Is this going to be a problem? As after I set the pre-clear's going, I read somewhere that I don't need the "-A" flag as I am running the latest beta?

     

    Thanks
