<DIV>Dear MythTV <SPAN class=227322212-19012010>u</SPAN>sers,<BR><BR>I
would like to run a mythtv-maschine (frontend + backend) without physical disk
space. There is just a pen drive to start from and a tmpfs.<BR>I do not want to
record any programs but would like to only watch livetv.<BR>So now there is the
problem that mythbackend will write the livetv-stream to the disk. I could use
1GB of ram for this on a tmpfs<SPAN class=227322212-19012010> and mount it to
/var/lib/mythtv/livetv/</SPAN>. In the FAQs and the wiki I read that mythtv will
write junks of 30 minutes if there is no epg-data that specifies the actual
length. I didn't find any setting in the DB to reduce this to for example 5
minutes.<BR>Is there a setting for this?<BR>Is there anonther way to achieve
that mythbackend will write junks of 5 minutes <SPAN
class=227322212-19012010>even so that it does </SPAN>no<SPAN
class=227322212-19012010>t</SPAN> matter what epg says about the length of the
show?<BR><BR>Thank you in advance</DIV></BODY></HTML>
