Where does sagetv save Live TV files?

I am wondering where SageTV saves its video/audio data when you are watching Live TV?

Im assuming it stores the data on the local C drive of where the sagetv server is running, right? Although it does seem possible that it could be recording to one of the UNC shares that it records its TV shows to? I have lots of UNC shares setup on different servers.

I have noticed that in the past few weeks when I watch live TV the picture and audio seem choppy and out of sync. And I havent changed anything. So I am wondering what might cause this.

However, I did go back and view the saved SageTV recordings and they looked OK. So it only seemed to happen during LiveTV. And it happened when I was watching from the SageTV server or any client.

They're stored in your recording directory.

Live TV is still just a recording. As blade said they're all in the recording directory you've defined in Detailed setup-Video Directory.

So that means, since some of my video directories are located on other computers (using UNC paths)...that when I am watching liveTV, the video data is atually being streamed across the network to whichever video directory that Sagetv has chosen to use?

I guess I was thinking that when you watched livetv that it would only use the local C drive or D Drive to save video data, to make sure its fast.

If you don't want it to record to those DIR's, make them video import dirs...

It will only record to the dirs that you tell it to record to
