Tvheadend

Hello All,

Long time user of MythTV. I've been pulling my hair out trying to figure out how to get autoremove(expire recordings) to work with tvheadend. I've come to the conclusion it's the directory or how it's mounted. Basically if it's an NFS share it fails. If it's local storage it works.

I'm using an Odroid C2 running Ubuntu

Linux odroid64 3.14.79-116 #1 SMP PREEMPT Tue Sep 26 01:19:06 BRT 2017 aarch64 aarch64 aarch64 GNU/Linux

tvheadend 4.2.4~xenial arm64 Tvheadend

It's not a permission problem. I can 'su - hts;cd /home/hts/recordings;touch 1 2 3;rm 1 2 3'

Will paste success and errors along with mount options. Will see if I can also attach some screenshots of web configurations.

Works (directory of recordings is /home/hts/recordings and it's local)

All recording fail and tvheadend basically stops. I did not change any configurations in tvheadend between these two tests. Just disabled my Autorecs rules and made the mount changes.

I have tried with both name and IP with the same result

192.168.0.50:/export/recordings /home/hts/recordings nfs _netdev,auto 0 0
myth:/export/recordings /home/hts/recordings nfs _netdev,auto 0 0

Does anybody have any ideas? Would really like to get this to work. This is an Odroid C2 ARM device. There is no room for local storage. Usually run with eMMc disk but in this case was lucky to have a large microSD card
