Question forced_video_storage_path_prefix - Is it possible to set local and UNC path?

Each tuner in my system has a dedicted directory to record to, Is it possible to use

mmc/encoders/<tuner id>/forced_video_storage_path_prefix=

to set a primary UNC path and a local path (ie d:\recording) if for some reason the network path is not available?

I have already tried:-

mmc/encoders/<tunerid>/forced_video_storage_path_prefix=\\\\servername\\share;d\:\\recordings

but it does not work. The sage service fails to start.

Thanks

That property can only have a single prefix value. The only way to have it apply to multiple locations would be if those locations all started with the given prefix.

An example prefix would be the first however many characters you want to use from some path(s) on the seeker/video_storage property. To use your example from the first post:

mmc/encoders/<tunerid>/forced_video_storage_path_prefix=\\\\server

... should match any recording path starting with "\\\\server".

And, just to make sure, <tunerid> is some exsiting number in your sage.properties file.
