This tabs allow configuration of several general parameters that affect the core TVH functionality.

- Icon caching - this will cache any channel icons or other images (such as - EPG metadata). These will then be served from the local webserver, this - can be useful for multi-client systems and generally to reduce hits on - upstream providers. -

+
+ Time Update +
-
+
Tvheadend has a built-in capability to update the system time. + However, you should bear in mind that DVB time is not highly accurate and is + prone to both jitter and variation between different transponders.
+
+
Where possible, it's probably still better to use an internet based NTP source + to synchronise the system clock (i.e. through the underlying operating system).
+ +
+
Update time
+
Enable system time updates. This will only work if the user + running TVH has rights to update the system clock (normally only root).
+ +
Enable NTP driver
+
This will create an NTP driver (using shmem interface) that you can feed + into ntpd. This can be run without root priviledges, but generally the + performance is not that great.
+ +
Update tolerance (milliseconds)
+
Only update the system clock (doesn't affect NTP driver) if the delta + between the system clock and DVB time is greater than this. This can help + stop horrible oscillations on the system clock.
+ +
+ +

+
+ Transcoding +
+ +
If enabled at build time (src/plumbing/transcoding.c), this allows you to switch transcoding support on and off.
+ +

+ Image Caching +
+ +
This will cache any channel icons or other images (such as + EPG metadata) to be served from the local webserver. This + can be useful for multi-client systems and, generally, to reduce hits on + upstream providers.
