OTA Recording: Please bring me up to date on Emby Options!
Marc_G posted a topic in Non-Emby General Discussion
Hi all, Some of my OTA recordings are full of glitches, and I think it's not about the signal or antenna. I want to try recording via something else than WMC's built in recording function. Same channel that glitches always looks nice using SiliconDust quick TV viewer. I'm a long time emby/MB user. I've got the server and MBC on the HTPC. In addition to Emby it also records TV OTA via WMC. My HTPC is a bit dated (circa 2009 AMD X2 Kuma processor), though the OS is on a newer SSD and I've got an adequate Radeon 5670 graphics card. Two SiliconDust boxes (an older 2009 one, and a newer smaller one from 2011). Gigabit wired network throughout the house. I've changed antennas, optimized which tuner for which channel, etc.. but I often get glitches, mostly on one channel but sometimes on others. Never when just viewing the channel with the SiliconDust software. I think the problem may relate to the computer being a bit overloaded (recording time of day often conflicts with viewing time of day), but I'ld like to try software changes first. Can somebody please point me to a primer on what software for recording OTA works well with Emby? And any recommendations about which solutions are good are always appreciated. Thanks! Marc
