Storage groups are MythTV's way of telling a backend where your content 
is.  You can add one or more directories to a storage group, and MythTV 
will automatically load balance between then when recording.  The 
directory must be readable and writable by the backend, and frontends 
can stream from the backend if they do not have access to those files.

You need to add at least one directory to the Default group for MythTV 
to be able to record anything.

The fact that you do not have any of the groups MythVideo now uses 
listed means you are trying to install 0.21.  Please consider using 
0.23-fixes, or at least 0.22-fixes instead.
