[mythtvnz] mythtvnz Digest, Vol 81, Issue 3

Sat May 3 03:55:08 BST 2014

I was very new to linux (mythtv) and there was some very patient people who would give there time to teach an old windows user new tricks but if you posted something and they thought it was dumb you would be told go back to using windows .

There was some disagreement about something on the list a while back.  I don't recall the details, but seems to have left a bad taste.

We're all adults here - if you have something to say, please say it and not make sideways comments and oblique references.

You never know what someone else is thinking.

No. I'm talking about real abuse, not just being told to follow the rules.

Cheers,
Steve

The 78% is just "total recorded"/"total running time". So it's assuming you
can only record one thing at a time which is almost never true. It would
probably be more meaningful if you divided 78 by the number of simultaneous
recordings you can do (or at least the maximum number you've ever done).

Cheers,
Steve

I am thinking that the "% recording" does not take into account how
many tuners you have and is just adding up all the time each tuner is
recording for and then dividing by the total elapsed time.  So it
would be possible to get more than 100%.

Anyway, here are my stats:

Number of shows:
    1958
Number of episodes:
    21500
First recording:
    Sunday November 29th, 2009
Last recording:
    Friday May 2nd, 2014
Total Running Time:
    4 years 5 months 1 day 21 hrs 49 mins
Total Recorded:
    2 years 2 months 4 days 15 hrs 44 mins
Percent of time spent recording:
    49%

Total Space: 18,895,340 MB
Space Used:  16,626,226 MB
Space Free:   2,269,113 MB

Most recorded shows:
3 News            1585
ONE News At 6pm   1213 ] They changed the title
ONE News At 6      371 ] in the EPG in 2012

Those are just because they get recorded every night and are kept for
a week in case there is something interesting in the news - I only
occasionally watch them.

My MythTV box is actually two years older than that (installed
3-May-2007), but at one point I did a complete reinstall so the stats
are just since then.  And the total running time value seems wrong too
- it has been on 24/7 since it was installed except for power outages
and maintenance.

The silly outbursts about top quoting of course.

cheers
