New Kernel Gives A Shout Out To ReplayTV ? | October 10th, 2008
OMFS support added to the new kernel
OMFS stands for “Sonicblue Optimized MPEG File System support”. It is the proprietary file system used by the Rio Karma music player and ReplayTV DVR. Despite the name, this filesystem is not more efficient than a standard FS for MPEG files, in fact likely the opposite is true.
Weird - just goes to show you that if it is out there - eventually Linux will support it…
Now I just wish they would be able to do ZFS read/write in the kernel.
