The "Schedule as Group" feature added last year greatly improved the
scheduling performance of multirec configurations. Unfortunately, it
required the number of simultaneous recordings to be set high enough
to handle every recording load. If it was set too low, recordings
would be missed. I now have a change ready to address that
limitation.
Instead of missing recordings, MythTV will now automatically add
multirec inputs to handle the load. However, this change adds new
locking creates the possibility of new deadlocks, especially when the
added inputs are on slave backends. Consequently, I'd like for this
change to get some wider testing before it goes into master.
If you're interested and able to help out on the testing, please
checkout the devel/scheduler branch and give it a try. Please post
any feedback you have here. If all goes well, I'll commit to master
in a week or two.
