tvheadend / vu+ / Kodi

Added by Christoph Sedlmeir about 6 years ago

Hey guys,

I have a question.
I use the following configuration:
1. tvHeadend on a Synology NAS and 2 AMV DVB-C Repeater / Client some Kodis on TV Linux Boxes
The tvHeadend works with an authorization group "sc-media" on the Synology.
2. a VU+ Ultimo4K - everything is standard there (VTI Image).
3. a Duo2 - everything is standard there (VTI image).
4. a zero there is all standard (VTI image).

I would like to access each other's recording directory from both worlds.
A common recording directory is not possible, because I only have a WLAN connection between the two worlds.
The recordings should be arranged in Kodi in such a way that series are grouped - as it is standard in PVR recordings.

I'd love to get some help.....

By the way - I'm not good at Linux commands........

Many thanks in advance.

Best regards,

logol01

OK, I've read your question 3 times and it is not at all clear to me what these 'worlds' you talk about refer to.

Suggest you word your question more explicitly.

Hello,

I'm sorry I didn't formulate it clearly.
The following installation:
1st world VU+ Ultimo4K on a television set
2nd world is TVHeadend on a Synology NAS system with AVM DVB-C repeaters as TV receivers and as client TV boxes with Kodi

World 1 and World 2 is connected in the network with WLAN (no Gigabit LAN cable).
TVHeadend and AVM DVB-C Repeater are networked together with a GBit LAN cable connection.

What I would like to achieve is that both worlds see in addition to their own PVR recording library also library of the other world.

When I am at the VU+ I would see the recordings of the VU+ and additionally I would see the library of the TVHeadend installation (grouped recordings when the recordings are similar e.g. series, TV shows that come and are recorded again and again etc).

In Kodi I want to see the PVR recordings of TVHeadend (under Live-TV, Recordings) and additionally the recording library of the VU+ recordings.

I thought to myself, I only have to create a directory in the TVHeadend recording directory and link it to the VU+ recording directory.

e.g. in the /etc/fstab
//192.168.178.24/Harddisk/movie /volume1/Filme/tvheadend/VU cifs, username=user, password=password

But this is not possible, because there are not only drive folders necessary. I now understand that it is a library that refers to the recordings.

Probably this is not possible at all..... Whereby the VU+ plugin for Kodi must have managed that somehow. But this is not performant and does not work properly.....

I would be very happy if someone could help me
