#3353 closed enhancement (fixed)

force frontend preview gens to be remote

Reported by: anonymous Owned by: danielk
Priority: trivial Milestone: 0.22
Component: mythtv Version: head
Severity: low Keywords:
Cc: Mark, Spieth, <mark@…> Ticket locked: no

Description

if a recording is local (e.g. nfs) and the frontend is remote and with (currently) the ability to have multiple preview gens occurring simultaneously this can impact network traffic and FE performance if the FE is resource inhibited.

solution is to force all FE preview gens to go to the backend for action. patch attached

Mark can you update this for SVN head?

Also instead of having both localOnly & forceRemote can you just use a bitmask 'location' which contains with kLocal=0x1, kRemote=0x2, kLocalAndRemote=0x3 and any location&3 is valid other than 0x0?
