hd-homerun with nas

[tedson]

I recently got a n41000pro and consolidated all my various disks onto it, including the large recording disks in my sage server. I then setup sage to record to the shared drive. I can get both my hd-pvrs recording and watch a stream and have the server scanning for media (which all my home photos and dvd rips are now also on the n41000pro) and everything is fine.

The problem is if I have just one hd-homerun stream going and the server starts to scan for media the hd-homerun stream will start to pixelate, then stutter then finally just break-up and become unwatchable.

Does anyone know of a setting I could tweak (maybe one that has already been tweaked for the hd-pvrs) that might fix this? Why would the hd-homerun be so much more sensitive to disk speed?

Just as a note I upgraded the ram on the n41000pro and tweaked a bunch of its setting in linux and it reads at around 50MB/s and writes at around 25MB/s, which should be fast enough.

What version of the hd-homerun drivers are you using? There was a version that streamed the entire stream instead of just streaming the channel. That could be your issue.

That thread fixed it. I switched everything over to use ip addresses in the unc path instead of names and now everything works fine.
