mkdir /video/recordings
mkdir /video/other (or whatever you want to call it)
then, move all your ".nuv" files and the new Myth videos to
/video/recordings and change MythTV's recordings directory to
/video/recordings (and, you could make it easy to identify Myth
recordings with any of about 3 mythrename.pl magic incantations...).
Then, move all the non-recordings to /video/other and set MythVideo's
video directory.
Everything is on the same partition, but now it's organized...
