Is there a ‘preferred method’ of moving the app to another filesystem? and part 2 - a different user?
I have it running as root out of its home directory and I’d like to move it to /usr/local and run it as user dvr-user:video
The recordings will not change location, just the application.
You can run ./channels-dvr/uninstall.sh
Move the directory to the new location and run ./channels-dvr/install.sh
If you’re changing users too then you will need to chown the existing files accordingly, and also ensure the new user can write to your recordings folder.
Another option is to do a fresh install after the uninstall, then visit localhost:8089/restore to recover your existing settings, passes and recordings.
Perfect thank you.
Moved and running again with no loss of recordings!
