Long launch

Problem: the time to turn on transmissions from the archive has become longer than usual, attempts to rewind sometimes hang, and sometimes work with a delay.

Possible causes and solutions:

  • Check and free up free space on the disk, with a critically small amount of free space when using an SSD system, the process of indexing kswapd can be started, which significantly slows down the work of I / O.
  • Braking can be caused by the background manager of the RAID controller, or the mdadm utility that performs a storage integrity check or its restoration.
  • Due to errors in older versions of MicroPVR, the size of the SQLite database indexes and records in /etc/micropvr/ could become very large, which can lead to a slowdown in the search for positions in recorded files. You need to update the software, reset the database and restart the recording tasks.
  • Errors in the operation of the network controller, as well as packet losses, can lead to the termination of TCP sessions to the PVR server. You need to update the network card driver or replace it, as well as eliminate the loss of TCP packets on all parts of the network.
