Hi
In the longrun I want to use my OMV box also as my tv server.
My first choice would be Argus TV, but that is Windows only and Virtulabox does - as far as I know - not support PCIe passthrough with VT-d (I would have the HW to support that if I exchange my CPU). The other option would be via ESXi and the run OMV and windows as virtual machines - phew that sounds just complicated!
So that leaves me with two choices, VDR and TVheadend. I did use VDR on a Reelbox from 2009 but that was with a GUI on my TV.
So here are my questions to users already using the one or the other:
1)Are there major differences as far as features go between these two? (i.e. search timers)
2) Is unicable working on TVHeadend? - I found misc. info an that.
3) Which one is easier to configure maintain via OMV - i.e. editing channels lists, scans, EPG fetching
4) Do you have the TS and recordings folders on the raid volumes or do you have those on differen drives i.e separate 2,5" drives dedicated to TV usage?
thx for any help!
