I've just ordered my equipment and I have a lot to learn about how this is going to work. I'm wondering if some people can answer some basic questions for me:
I am dealing with the following two systems:
Server running Ubuntu 11.10
AMD Phenom quad-core
8GB Ram
nVidia GT 430
RAID Array
XBMC pre-eden Beta 3
XBMC-Live install
Zotac HD-ID11 Atom/Ion system
The server is used as the HTPC on my primary TV, it has the SQL database running and is sharing that with the Live install which will be on the second TV.
So I plan on installing some PVR software on the server, and I'm wondering if it's also needed on the Live install. My questions are the following:
1. Will the recorded shows be thrown into the regular database, or are they listed separately? If they are in the same database, I assume they will be accessible to the second computer also.
2. Do I need a full PVR setup on the second computer for it to also access live TV?
3. How does the HDHomeRun Prime know what streams are being recorded by one system while another is trying to watch live TV?
4. Is there a single, up-to-date source for telling me how to get the PVR set up with Eden, or is that even possible at the moment?
Thanks much for any help.
