So it looks like it is indeed an issue with USB > on the Raspberry PI 2. Any idea how to solve that? It _could_ be the write-cache-flush which saturates the bus and then dramatically decreases I/O of the overall system. Try hdparm -W 0 /dev/<partition> which might work. I had mixed results with this command on a PC back then when I wanted to store a continuous stream which came in at 33 MiB/s and lead to data drop due to write-caches on an SSD... My parents use your setup with an HDD connected to USB and receiving all DVB over network (which is USB on the RPI2) and have no problems. You might also try to replace your raspberry Pi - maybe there is another problem somewhere (if you already did this, sorry, I must have over-read it). regards, -- Patrick. _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@xxxxxxxxxxx https://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
