Overview
The Channels DVR backend engine with NVIDIA HW transcoding.
Here is an explanation of the default mappings: Port 8089: This is the default port that ChannelsDVR listens on. Changing the port is not recommended. /shares/DVR: This is where the ChannelsDVR folder exists for recordings to be stored. The DVR folder in the Channels Settings would then be: /shares/DVR and you enter the location on your server where the data will be. Recommend: /mnt/user/data/Media/ChannelsDVR /channels-dvr: This is where the DVR application and configuration is stored. Recommend having this locally at /mnt/user/appdata/channels-dvr --runtime=nvidia: This is in "extra parameters" (switch on advanced view) and allows passing through the NVIDIA graphics card to the container. Environmental Variables for NVIDIA_VISIBLE_DEVICES and NVIDIA_DRIVER_CAPABILITIES are already in the template, but you can change the 'all' variable for the device to match the UUID of a specific device if you have more than one. Optional: Add in a mapping for your personal media, i.e. Host Directory of '/mnt/user/data/Media/Movies' with a Container Directory of '/shares/Movies' and then add that as a Movie Source for Local Content in the server settings.
