General / Re: How long after a recording...
Last post by IanL-S - April 27, 2024, 05:10:36 PMThe time taken can also change with the codec use - MPEG2 tends to be fast than h.264, and the resolution (higher the resolution longer the scan), and the bitrate. It is very complex!

General / Re: How long after a recording...
Last post by Ian_AW - April 27, 2024, 04:42:54 PMOk, I did some digging in the Recordings folder.
The broadcast scheduled for 2 pm to 3 pm.
With padding the timer went from 1:55 pm to 3:15 pm.
The most recently closed file in the recording's folder has a time stamp of 3:34 pm.
So, this is approximately 20 minutes.
It comes down to how variable this is based on recording length and if this changes at all.
Thanks.

Last post by IanL-S - April 27, 2024, 04:28:35 PMMy understanding is that the add-skip process does not start until the recording is completed. Further only one recording can be processed at a time, so the delay may be several hours. The time taken to process is longer the greater the pre- and post- padding.

Last post by Ian_AW - April 27, 2024, 03:34:51 PMG'day,
How long after a recording finishes should we try and play it?
This has to do with the ad skip function.
I recorded the World SBK round from the Netherlands on SBS. I gave it a couple of minutes after the program finished, but this was not long enough and no Ad Skip information was created.
Thanks.

Last post by IanL-S - April 27, 2024, 03:33:23 PMIt is my recollection that it cannot be done. @Delta Mike Charlie may have useful insights.
Just found this atrical on the LibreELEC wiki which may point you in the right direction

General / Permanent Directory Mounts in ...
Last post by IanV - April 27, 2024, 03:06:30 PMGiven that our now failing HUMAX has 2 Tb and it always seems to be full, the 1Tb in the new IceBox seems inadequate.
Of, course, I could buy a 4Tb SSD drive and substitute it for the one supplied but they cost in the $500-600 range and I already have a Synology NAS with 5Tb of free space and the ability to add another 6Tb reasonably cheaply.
I have therefore tested mounting shares on the NAS to the IceBox for the recording, pictures, tvshows and videoa directories, with success.
I now want to make those shares permanent so they survive a reboot. The Linux way is to enter them into the fstab file at /etc/fstab. Trouble is, in LibreElec the fstab file is a protected system file which can't be changed even by the root user.
The process for doing this with Kodi appears to be to add a Skin which goes into the /storage/.kodi/addons directory, copy that skin to another file in the same directory then add a fstab file to that.
Does anyone know of a better way?

IceTV EPG Content / Re: The 1 Percent Club Austral...
Last post by BazzaG - April 27, 2024, 01:34:59 PMI feel the real cause of this is the EPG data itself that is released by Seven West Media. Even Seven gets it wrong.
Lets take a look at next Wednesday nights broadcast.
Starting here: https://tvguidetonight.com.au/ (which is the online guide linked to on the 7Plus webpages).
Change it to Wednesday night and we have:
The 1% Club listed for 7:30pm. But there is NO indication as whether it's the UK or AU.
However, if you expand the listing you get:
Notice the reference to "100 everyday Australians".
And the "Watch on 7+" takes you to: https://7plus.com.au/the-1-club, which is the Aussie edition.
The UK edition is: https://7plus.com.au/the-1-club-uk.
Freeview also has it listed as the Aussie edition.
Without going through all of the online EPG's, the only 1 that I've found to be "right" (sort of) is Nine's YourTV guide.
As of today, searching through the EPG has "The 1% Club" listed only once, so it would be safe option to have both: "The 1 Percent Club Australia" & "The 1 Percent Club UK" defined to record both New & Repeats.
