tvheadend logging
Added by neil mac almost 13 years ago
Hi All,
I using a init.d script to start tvheadend but I am unable to pipe the logs out. What is everyone doing for this?
is there any configuration to set the logging location?
Cheers,
Neil

HTS Tvheadend
Usage: tvheadend [options]
-s Log debug to syslog
-d Debug logging
So 2 options ... Log directly to syslog using -s ... Or use -d and redirext the console to seperate log file ...
