TMCsw 122 Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 There are temporary files in the temp dir and the recording dir why? As shown here: tmc@z690:/dev/shm/transcoding-temp$ ls -laph /emby/OTA/NFL\ Football\ \(1970\)/NFL\ Football\ 2022_11_20_16_25_00\ *.ts . -rw-rw-r-- 1 emby tmc 15G Nov 20 20:03 '/emby/OTA/NFL Football (1970)/NFL Football 2022_11_20_16_25_00 - Dallas Cowboys at Minnesota Vikings - 1.ts' -rw-rw-r-- 1 emby tmc 28G Nov 20 20:03 '/emby/OTA/NFL Football (1970)/NFL Football 2022_11_20_16_25_00 - Dallas Cowboys at Minnesota Vikings.ts' .: total 42G drwxrwxr-x 5 emby tmc 140 Nov 20 19:53 ./ drwxrwxrwt 3 root root 60 Nov 20 20:03 ../ -rw-rw-r-- 1 emby tmc 15G Nov 20 20:03 1b9b821a9c0e42e59c6e023fd2e8e177.ts drwxrwxr-x 2 emby tmc 40 Nov 16 18:07 38B4F6/ drwxrwxr-x 2 emby tmc 40 Nov 16 18:05 41576B/ drwxrwxr-x 2 emby tmc 40 Nov 16 18:07 793F0B/ -rw-rw-r-- 1 emby tmc 28G Nov 20 20:03 7b5e12dde3f24d6bae95445a18ad7d7a.ts tmc@z690:/dev/shm/transcoding-temp$ du -hd1 0 ./793F0B 0 ./38B4F6 0 ./41576B 42G . They seem to be copies of the recording are these really needed if so can we put them outside or the transcoding-temp dir? Note, I wanted to use /dev/shm to prevent ssd where, but recordings just keep growing and once the dev is full ALL current recording terminate. Or do I have something set wrong? (the same game recording was just to demonstrate the problem) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37097 Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 Hi there, did you configure a recordings folder in emby live tv setup? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke 37097 Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 OK, the .ts file that goes into transcode temp is the channel buffer, and the recording is sourced from that, as well as any playback of that channel. We do plan to limit the space that it uses though in upcoming updates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMCsw 122 Posted November 21, 2022 Author Share Posted November 21, 2022 Okay, got it. But does the channel buffer really need to be in transcode temp? Seams even an old/slow HDD/floppy could handle this? Wouldn't be easier for emby just to put this elsewhere rather than coding a space limiter?

Luke 37097 Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 Where do you think it should go? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMCsw 122 Posted November 22, 2022 Author Share Posted November 22, 2022 I would like it to be configurable. Just like the Transcoding temporary path is now. If not set it would default to Transcoding temp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37097 Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 OK yes that is certainly possible. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
