 +  - Use the ReadyNAS UI to create an SMB/SAMBA file share called "​HDHomeRun",​ accessible to "​everyone"​. Disable snapshots for that volume.
 +  - Enable SSH (Settings -> Services -> SSH) and logging in as root.
 +  - <​wrapper>​Log into your ReadyNAS via SSH and issue the following commands. This will create an apps directory for the hdhomerun_record software and download it to that location.
 +<​code>​mkdir -p /​apps/​hdhomerun_record/​bin
 +cd /​apps/​hdhomerun_record/​bin
 +wget https://​download.silicondust.com/​hdhomerun/​hdhomerun_record_linux
 +chmod +x hdhomerun_record_linux
 +./​hdhomerun_record_linux start
 +mv /​tmp/​hdhomerun_record_* hdhomerun_record
 +chmod 755 hdhomerun_record
 +chown root:root hdhomerun_record
 +rm hdhomerun_record_linux</​code></​wrapper>​
 +  - <​wrapper>​Create the HDHomeRun DVR configuration file.  Update the RecordPath to the record path you configured in your NAS.
 +<​code>​cd /​apps/​hdhomerun_record
 +cat <<EOF >​hdhomerun.conf
 +RecordPath=/​data/​HDHomeRun
 +EOF</​code></​wrapper>​
 +  - <​wrapper>​Start the HDHomeRun DVR software to see if it's working
 +<​code>/​apps/​hdhomerun_record/​bin/​hdhomerun_record start --conf /​apps/​hdhomerun_record/​hdhomerun.conf</​code>​
 +
 +If it's working properly you should find a log file in /​data/​HDHomeRun,​ and a process in the process list. </​wrapper>​
 +  - <​wrapper>​Stop the process before setting up the start script.
 +<​code>/​apps/​hdhomerun_record/​bin/​hdhomerun_record stop</​code></​wrapper>​
 +  - <​wrapper>​Copy and paste the following to create the service file to automatically start the DVR software:
 +<​code>​
 +cat <<EOF > /​lib/​systemd/​system/​hdhomerun.service
 +[Unit]
 +Description=HDHomeRun DVR Service
 +After=network-up.service
 +
 +[Service]
 +Type=oneshot
 +ExecStart=/​apps/​hdhomerun_record/​bin/​hdhomerun_record start --conf /​apps/​hdhomerun_record/​hdhomerun.conf

 +RemainAfterExit=true
 +Nice=-1
 +
 +[Install]
 +WantedBy=multi-user.target
 +EOF
 +</​code></​wrapper>​
 +  - <​wrapper>​Now enable and start the DVR software:
 +<​code>​systemctl enable hdhomerun
 +systemctl start hdhomerun</​code></​wrapper>​
 +  - Restart the NAS and verify that the DVR remains available by checking the HDHomeRun app.
 +  - If everything is working, you can go and disable SSH (Settings -> Services -> SSH).
