PVR on FreeNAS 8?

[qwertyjjj]

This guide only seems to show FreeNAS 7 instructions: http://lifehacker.com/5838169/how-t...o-an-internet-pvr-with-sabnzbd-and-sick-beard
What is different in FreeNAS 8 and what do I have to do differently to set it up as a PVR?

 

[toddos]

Here you go.

Also, that isn't exactly a "PVR", as that implies actually recording TV off of a tuner.

Before I post, let me say that FreeNAS 8 is NOT the successor to FreeNAS 7. The true successor is NAS4Free, so you should go there for support between FreeNAS 7 and that guide.

The way in which plugins are designed in FreeNAS 8 is nothing like how that guide does things. You can completely ignore that guide if you want to use FreeNAS 8. There's a plugin in the plugins section of the forum that will do the same thing on FreeNAS 8. The forum provides some instructions for how to set it up.

so, does each plugin need a separate jail area?

 

[cyberjock]

Nope. One jail to rule them all.
