I had similar problems. In my case started with NTFS but was told Ext4 would be better. With NTFS I occasionally had to physically connect the drive to a Windows PC to sort out problems. With Ext4 plug into my Linux machine. Then some kind person gave me this
the code to check Ext4 disk on boot:
Code: /storage/.config/system.d/[email protected]/fsck.conf
Code
[Service]
ExecStartPre=-/usr/sbin/fsck -T -M -p -t ext4 %I
I've been given a Compaq CQ10-101SA - its an old 32 bit (Intel N270) 10" laptop and I want to set it up for someone to use as a music player, audio only no video.
When I received it it was running Windows XP I've inserted a SSD and installed Linux Mint LMDE on it.
Is there a version of LibreElec still available for download that might run on this?
OK found posts from 2018 - I'll forget this idea
Naturally I can no longer find the web page that told me it would switch between freely & aerial depending on stream / signal quality. It didn't really make sense when I read it anyway.
Overall it seems a good way to track what people are watching. In my case it will get very confused. I record a fair number of films that the first 5 minutes of convince me not to watch the remainder.
From what I can read on the internet I can't quite figure it out. On the face of it it looks similar to the Plus 1 or various catch up services but incorporating live TV as well. Firstly it looks as though you have to log on to watch anything (some of the hubs are like that now and maybe the TV will remember but I don't know about Kodi or TVH) but it looks as though the stream can switch between internet & antenna depending on the existence of the internet connection.
Very confusing
Yesterday I started thinking about buying a new TV (my old Panasonic is no longer supported on TV Hub) went to currys.co.uk & Amazon to see what was on offer and found a lot now offered Freely rather than Freeview.
Anyone any idea how this will work with LibreElec/Kodi/TVHeadend?
I found out that my little iPazzport objects to being dropped on a hard floor, i fact it objected so much I need a new one. Naturally the nmodel I have is no longer made. I contacted iPazzport and they are helpful but they no longer have an Amazon store (in the UK at least).
Any recommendations for a replacement IR (for the TV) and WiFi keyboard combination?
As I said before - the problem is my tired old brain. I just tried it on my RPi4 setup and yup you are right.
I'm going to need to identify what's coming in on which frequency so I can test properly. At the moment I'm recording BBC1 & BBC2 but anything else I try I get recording conflict .
The RPi4 is running a TVHat
I think basically you are saying what I'm doing.
I don't use TVHeadend server on Windows because as far as I know it won't run. I just checked on line and foundSuccess! TVheadend on Windows 10 Subsystem for Linux (WSL) Note the last bit 
Thanks for that, its very interesting from a technical viewpoint, but as I said earlier replace channels with programmes. From an end user viewpoint with the TVHat I can only access one programme at a time, with the Huappage Dual tuner only two. It doesn't matter how many are multiplexed onto the same frequency. Now if I could get at them to record simultaneously that would be different.
I think its more a case of my tired old brain limiting things rather than CPU/HDD. Still its always interesting to learn new things.
Are there any links you can supply that tell me how to turn this "technically right" into something I can use?
if your tuner is up to it you can record BBC One HD, BBC Two HD, ITV HD, C4 HD and C5 HD simultaneously with just one tuner
I think we may have a communications breakdown. Does replacing channels with programmes alter the sense?
What OS do you run on the Dell?
LibreElec of course. Its one of the nightlys 2023-11-something. I got it working nicely and there doesn't seem to be anything I'm bothered about in the more recent builds to make me want to update.
One reason to stick with LibreElec is this forum - pretty good support
Thanks for the info but I'll leave the August tuner for the PC - it gives me the Hauppage Dual tuner on my Dell Optiplex/LibreElec/Kodi, a TVHat on a RPi4/LibreElec/Kodi and the August on Windows. That means I can record 4 channels simultaneously if I ever go so mad!
I am in the UK and do get Freeview off the Rumster Forest transmitter.
When I started recording/watching TV on computer I had an August T202 on an old Toshiba laptop. After I started using Kodi on an RPi3 I bought another RPi3 and added a TVHat to the second one. I switched to a Hauppauge WinTV DualHD TV Stick. The setup with 1 RPi3 running Kodi to watch DVDs, ripped DVDs and recorded TV and the other acting as a TVHeadend server worked well.
I then bought an RPi4 hoping I could go to a single machine - not to good if I tried recording 2 TV channels and watching from ripped DVD.
Currently I use a Dell Optiplex i5-6500 (second hand from Amazon) which runs Kodi and acts as the TVHeadend server - it works really well.
I also have Kodi and TVHat on the RPi4 in my "office" totally separate from the main system and that's OK.
You're probably right and I'll get round to checking at some point (probably the next time I spot something I want to record). I tested on my sichbopvr setup on a PC using an august adapter which Kodi doesn't recognise and its scan turned up CBeedbies and BBC 4 just with BBC 4 not active
It was BBC4 SD (old eyes not good enough for HD 
) but is was during the day not after 7pm. This "CBeebies uses the same space as BBC Four during the day " may well be the problem since, not having kids, I've removed CBeebies. I'll reenable and see what happens.
Its been a while since I wanted to record anything from BBC 4 but I did today and its vanished from TVHeadEnd on both my Dell Optiplex i5 with Haupage and my RPi4 with TV hat, but its still showing on my TV.
Other channels coming in on the same mux (Rumster Forest 522MHz) are still there. I can't find anything indicating that BBC4 is off the air or something has happened to it.
I'm in the process of trying to reinstall TVHeadEnd on the RPi4 to see if that cures it. Its stuck at 91% mapping the services at present.
Any suggestions as to other actions to try?
That looks like it
Block count: 1465130240
Reserved block count: 73256512
Yet another thing I didn't know about unix
I have a 6TB Seagate formatted to Ext4 connected to my LibreElec machine (Dell Optiplex i5) and a second one formatted to NTFS connected to my Windows laptop and used as a backup. As far as I can tell there are exactly the same files on both (I sync then regularly) but the Ext4 has c400GB less free space than the NTFS one.
Is this normal for an Ext4 drive? If not are there any tools to investigate the difference?
